Rivera, Santana lift Angels over Tigers (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Juan Rivera's ninth-inning single broke a scoreless tie, saving a stellar outing for Ervin Santana and sending the Los Angeles Angels to a 2-1 victory over the slumping Detroit Tigers on Friday night. Torii Hunter and Kendry Morales started the ninth with singles off Fernando Rodney (0-1), and Rivera poked a single to right through the drawn-in infield for the game's first run.
