Anibal Sanchez racked up an impressive total of 10 strikeouts as the Detroit
Tigers defeated the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 3 to 0 at Tropicana
Field.
 
Sanchez(1-0) was simply too much for the Tampa Bay batters.  He allowed just 5
hits and 1 walk in 9 innings seeing his ERA drop from 5.40 to 2.84.  Detroit
had 7 hits for the afternoon.  
 
The losing pitcher was Alex Cobb(2-2). 'Sanchez gave us exactly what we needed
today.' Chris Couch said. 'When he threw the fastball he threw it for
strikes.  They were really fooled by his change.  Most of the time he had
them chasing it.'
