Strahler Finds A Home With Tigers In Debut Start
Mike Strahler earned a clutch win in his first American League start as the Detroit Tigers beat the Boston Red Sox 4-1. The 26 year old right hander, called up from Toledo, mixed a sharp curve and fastball to limit Boston to seven hits and one run over eight innings before John Hiller closed it out. Manager Billy Martin credited the move to evaluate Strahler via waivers and noted the pitcher faced a key test with Reggie Smith looming in the ninth.
