Mets Hapless Against Tigers, Viola
Detroit Tigers starter Frank Viola was in a groove as he led his team to a win over the New York Mets, 6-1. Detroit currently is in second place in the United League East Division at 78-63.

Viola, the winner, is now 13-10. In 9 innings of work, he gave up 1 earned run on 6 hits, while collecting 6 Ks. He essentially shut down the New York offense.

"It's easier to pitch when you get run support," said Viola.
