It is the ninth time this season the Tigers have been shut out.The Tigers also fell to 19-20 against lefty starters.Give Skaggs some credit, he did a good job, but weve struggled against left-handed starters this year for some reason, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. In May, I would have called it an anomaly, but it is almost September. I really cant explain why this continues to happen.The victory gave the Angels back-to-back road series wins for the first time this season.Marte hit a two-run home run in the fifth inning off Anibal Sanchez (7-13) for the first runs of the game. It was Martes 10th home run of the season and first since Aug. 17.I was looking for a good pitch and try to drive the run in and was looking for a fastball, Marte said.

He made some pitches when he had to.Sanchez gave up five runs on eight hits in 5 2/3 innings.He wasnt as sharp as hes been in the last few outings, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.The only Tiger with a hit off Skaggs was Miguel Cabrera, who had a single in the first and a double in the fourth.Their kid pitched well and they flat-out beat us, said Victor Martinez, who was 0-for-4. Thats the bottom line. We didnt do anything at all to score runs.POST-EJECTION AFTERMATH:Martinez declined to discuss his third-inning ejection in Saturdays game. Catcher James McCann, who was not ejected but did not agree with a called third strike in the second inning, said, At the end of the day, we have to find a way to take it out of the umpires hand. Unfortunately last night, I dont know that we were able to do that.HOMER HAPPY:Marte became the fourth Angels rookie in the last six seasons with 10 or more home runs, joining C.J. Cron, Mike Trout and Mark Trumbo.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: Although 3B Yunel Escobar (concussion) is ready to start baseball activities Monday, Scioscia wont commit to him playing next weekend against Seattle. If he feels good to play before then, well get him in before then, but weve got to wait and see when he can get back to baseball activities and how he works out on the field the next day, Scioscia said.Tigers: RHP Mike Pelfrey (low back strain) will make his first rehabilitation start Monday with Triple-A Toledo. Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said he would throw 40-45 pitches. Jordan Zimmermann (neck) will make his second rehabilitation start Wednesday and is set to throw about 60 pitches.UP NEXTAngels: RHP Matt Shoemaker will be making his first career appearance against the Cincinnati Reds.
