Aurelio Lopez, making his first start of the season and only the seventh of his career, combined with Kevin Saucier on a five-hitter as the Tigers whitewashed the Rangers, 5-0, ending Texas' four-game winning skein. The Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning on a single by Lynn Jones, sacrifice by Alan Trammell and single by Steve Kemp and picked up two runs in the sixth on an error by Texas shortstop Mario Mendoza and sacrifice fly by Tom Brookens, who added a two-run single in the eighth.
