Fresh off his first relief appearance since the 2004 World Series, Dan Haren showed the Cleveland Indians why he's been such a successful starting pitcher in the major leagues. And he did it with his most dominant performance. The three-time All-Star pitched his first career one-hitter, allowing only Shin-Soo Choo's clean single in the fourth inning, and the Los Angeles Angels snapped the Indians' eight-game winning streak with a 2-0 victory on Tuesday night. "I was going at them pretty much the whole night," Haren said. "I was pitching with a controlled aggressiveness. It was such a close game, I didn't want to leave anything out over the plate -- but I didn't want to get burned with walks, either." Haren's third start of the season, which required him to throw 125 pitches, was pushed back a day after he threw 13 pitches in a perfect 14th inning on Saturday night against Toronto and got credit for the Angels' 6-5 victory. That relief appearance ended his string of 203 consecutive starts. Read more: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/recap?gameId=310412103
