Two of the best pitchers in the American League face each other, as Detroit’s Justin Verlander goes against Los Angeles’ Jered Weaver, with both looking for their 15th win. Verlander takes a no-hitter into the 8th inning, while Weaver loses his cool after Carlos Guillen hits a 7th-inning homer; he throws a pitch over the head of the next batter, Alex Avila, and is ejected. Verlander and the Tigers prevail, 3 – 2.
