For the second time in three starts, Detroit Tigers right-hander Matt Manning completed seven innings. The only problem is he didn't get any run support from his offense against Los Angeles Angels left-hander Patrick Sandoval.
Sandoval had complete control.
The 25-year-old, an 11th-round draft pick in 2015, tossed a shutout for the first time in his four-year MLB career, which features 49 starts in 56 games. Friday's start was the eighth shutout by a single pitcher in the majors this season; Sandoval joins teammate Reid Detmers (whose blanking was a no-hitter) in the club. Detmers is slated to start Saturday afternoon.
