Tuesday's Games
--------------------------------------------------------------
DETROIT 4, TEXAS 0
DETROIT -- Scott Sanders threw a one-hitter for his first
major-league shutout and Juan Encarnacion's two-run triple
highlighted a four-run second inning as the Detroit Tigers kept
the Texas Rangers reeling with a 4-0 victory. Sanders (5-12), who
won for the first time in exactly a month, allowed only a two-out
single to Domingo Cedeno in the fifth and a two-out walk to Tom
Goodwin in the ninth. He faced 29 batters, two over the minimum.
Sanders, who struck out a season-high eight, snapped a personal
three-game losing streak. Texas has lost five straight games and
has scored just four runs in that span, getting blanked twice in
the last three.
