Heaney (7-7) gave up five runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in a win over the Tigers on Tuesday.
The Angels put up a seven spot in the first inning, so Heaney was able to notch his seventh victory despite getting roughed up a bit. The southpaw probably would have gone further in the contest (only 85 pitches Tuesday), but he let a curveball catch too much of the plate in the fifth inning, and Jeimer Candelario made him pay with a two-out, two-run homer. Heaney has been serviceable as a fantasy asset this season, carrying a 3.96 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 3.6 K/BB ratio over 21 starts. He will complete a two-start week with a home matchup against the Athletics on Sunday.
