The Royals ruined Baseball back in 2014 and 2015. For Angels fans especially, the Kansas City Royals are a reminder of how Mike Trout has never won a playoff game. He has also been sitting at 398 home runs for almost a month. Maybe if the broadcast can not say it in a game for once he will finally hit them. Aaaaaaand Mike Trout was scratched with a skin infection. Well… That sucks.
As for the pitching, today we got to see the MLB debut of Mitch Farris. Will the Angels get to see their own Cy Rookie? Or will he get burnt like the rest of Angels pitching as of late? He went 5 innings giving up 1 runs on 3 hits striking out 3 and walking 2. Not a Cy Rookie but certainly a Cy good job.
Highlighted Recap
Farris got his first strikeout in the 1st, against Bobby Witt jr. That is special right there.
Unfortunately, after a triple in the 3rd, a sac fly made it 1-0 Royals
Not to fear, Adell is here and WOW THAT’S A SPLASH
A win was now possible for our rookie starter.
It was made more probable in the 7th as Peraza drove in a run.
And the Royals gifted another in a wild pitch.
And in the 9th the Angels added another
Jansen came in despite it not being a save situation. It wasn’t the prettiest but Angels win!
Upcoming
2 more vs the Royals and then the last 3 against the A’s this season.
