Bawston, a city that angers Angels fans of all ages. And look, they are starting a Cy Rookie. This will be ugly huh? Just another painful loss in the long line of “It’s so over” right when the “We’re so back” is now a distant memory…
At least the bats were here. Wait what? Yeah, a 6 run first inning. Seriously. No Cy rookie today, The Angels offense was fierce, and did their job, But can the pitching? Tyler Anderson went 4 and 1/3 innings giving up 5 runs (3 while on the mound, 2 by the RP) on 7 hits striking out 5 and walking 2. Not good. battle of the bullpens, and the Angels Bullpen is a SUCK.
Slugfest? Maybe. Or maybe no one in the building could pitch. Whatever sounds better… or worse.
Highlighted Recap
The Angels went fast and hard right out the gate. Starting with a Neto leadoff home run!
They added run 2 on an error. LOLZ Sux.
Oh yeah, Mike Trout is back, and hit a 3 run bomb.
And Jo Adell made history with the first visiting team to hit 3 home runs at Fenway in the first inning.
It was glorious, and the SP was done after 1 IP.
Too bad Anderson gave up one in the 3rd on back to back doubles.
Things were going well, until the 5th, when Anderson gave up another run.
Make that 2.
And Anderson did not make it 5 innings. Not good. Strickland came in and blew, it allowing Anderson’s 2 runners to score.
The offense had to save the day. Jo Adell agreed and hit his 2nd home run of the game!
Detmers came in and did a good job for the 7th. Neris came in for the 8th and gave up a home run, come ON.
At least he got it to Jansen with the lead. And he saved the game. Angels Win!
Upcoming
2 more in Bawston, and then back home to face the Mariners.
