DETROIT, July 28 (UPI) -- Mark Trumbo had three hits, drove in five runs and scored three Thursday in powering the Los Angeles Angels to a 12-7 win over the Detroit Tigers.
Trumbo came up a single short of hitting for the cycle as he had a two-run home run in the second inning, an RBI triple in the fourth and a two-run double in the seventh.
Bobby Cassevah (1-0) collected the win with 2 1/2 inning of shutout relief. Brad Penny (7-8) was saddled with the loss after a 3 1/3-inning outing in which he gave up seven runs on nine hits. Angels starter Joel Pineiro lasted just 3 1/3 innings, allowing six runs.
Trumbo pulled a drive down the left-field line that was ruled a triple but changed to a home run on replay review that showed the ball hitting the foul pole. Jeff Mathis made the score 3-0 with an RBI single later in the inning.
Detroit scored single runs in the second and third on a home run by Miguel Cabrera, his 22nd of the year and a Brennan Boesch RBI single.
Trumbo tripled in a run and scored another in a four-run Angels fourth only to have the Tigers come back with four runs to make the score 7-6.
A five-run seventh put the game away. Howard Kendrick had a two-run single just ahead of Trumbo's double and Trumbo later scored on a groundout.
The Tigers' Wilson Betemit hit an eighth-inning home run that made the final five-run margin.
