The Los Angeles Angels were upset and demoralized about blowing a seven-run lead and watching their All-Star closer surrender a go-ahead, two-run homer in the ninth inning.
It didn’t take long for their emotions to swing the other way.
A throwing error by reliever Todd Jones led to the winning run for the Angels, who came away with a 9-8, 10-inning victory Tuesday. They also needed a daring bit of baserunning by Vladimir Guerrero in the ninth, when he scored the tying run on a short wild pitch by the Tigers’ closer.
