The next Angels loss would be the 82nd of the season, yet another losing record. 10 straight losing seasons means we are halfway to the Pirates record of 20. Will the Angels match that? Not having a winning season until the mid 2030s is pathetic. It is also the 6th straight losing season of CtPG, and while we are not to blame for this, it does suck that we have never been able to celebrate almost anything here.
So will the Angels lose the game today? It seemed likely, as Caden Dana was on the mound against the best team in the NL. He went 3 and 2/3 innings, giving up 5 runs on 8 hits striking out 4 and walking 3. Have the Angels already ruined him?
This was such a bad match-up that it was like watching 2 separate leagues. I mean, yeah, AL vs NL and whatever but I meant talent wise. This was unfair, and to make matters worse, Neto went on the IL, likely out for the season.
Highlighted Recap
Things went so badly there is little reason to even show it. Brewers scored. Then scored more. And then hit a home run that knocked Dana out. 5-0 and the Angels managed to have only 1 hit.
Well, the Angels DID hit a home run. No not Trou. Or Ward. But Denzer Guzman. Yes, in the 5th he hit his first career home run.
Oh and Christian Moore hit one as well in the 7th.
At least it is a game now. Or, it was until the Brewers scored again to make it 9-2. Why do I get my hopes up? Angels lose again, secure tenth straight losing season.
Upcoming
2 more in Milwaukee and then off to COORS.
