The Angels visit Texas for the first time this season. Jo Adell is still out of the lineup. Griffin Canning looks to build on his solid form. It’s Mike Trout’s birthday.
Angels Lineup: Fletcher 6, Trout 8, Ohtani 10, Rendon 5, La Stella 4, Pujols 3, Castro 2, Upton 7, Goodwin 9, Canning SP
Rangers Lineup: Choo 9, Solak 8, Odor 10, Frazier 3, Calhoun 7, Andrus 6, Kiner-Falefa 5, Chirinos 2, Tejeda 4, Lyles SP
Ohtani, Rendon & Upton, 0 for 10 with 5 K’s.
Just release Upton. The guy got his last contract. Doesn’t want to win. If he did he’d have learned to field a fly ball like they teach from 7 yo and up.
Losing to the worst teams makes you… the worst team 🙁
Came down to one bad inning
thats usually what it takes at this level.. “just one bad inning”
And a bad one too.
It shouldn’t have taken 6 walks with decreased velocity for Maddon to take Canning out of the game. 50% chance I think we hear about his elbow barking at him again.
Well. . . darn.
Goodnight, stay safe.
So it’s bad to lose to the Rangers right? Thanks La Stella!
its bad to lose period :/
It’s bad to lose on errors.
Or the manager could have played Rengifo at 2B and hid LaStella at 1B. Rengifo can’t seem to hit LHP at all but he’s better against RHP like they faced tonight.
Losing is no fun for sure, but while Noodles had a bad game so did Myers allowing inherited runners to score. Leaving so many runners on base. Not swinging to protect the plate with 2 strikes. This team is just not good.
Oooooooo
That was some puckering up right there
For a second l thought…….
Ump wants to go home.
Cmon Blue!
“Oh my”
Goodwin, Fletcher,Trout. If that doesn’t get us a run nothing will.
It hasn’t happened much today
Looks like nothing.
Here come the Guns, we will pull it off tonite.
Come back, little Simba!
I really hope so, we need him him back healthy though.
Astros/A’s going to the 12th
Another stellar play for La Stella
Eh no harm no foul
Not a great time for La Stalla
SMFH
Ok I cut away for a few innings and now we’re losing. What the heck?
We really gotta stop losing series to teams like Texas and Seattle.
Lastella error
We’ve been losing for awhile now actually since what.. the 4th?
Dang. Binging West Wing and for some reason felt safe about this game early on. How naive of me.
Can’t go one game without striking out at least once. I sure hope to God they can move him. He’s a disgrace!
l don’t know about a disgrace but he has always had high K rate during his career. The layoff certainly messed with his timing and he might be better served by a trade and starting fresh on another team.
