Atlanta is the home of the Braves. And you had to be brave to watch this and expecting a slug fest. While many a fan can appreciate a low scoring game, others also see it as boring. For those who love offense it was not a game for you. Nor expect many highlights.
It was Tyler Anderson out there in a very intense pitching duel. He went 6 innings giving up 0 runs on 4 hits striking out 7 and walking 2. So that means he will get the win right? Haha. No. Neither SP would get a win. That’s why it is called a pitching duel.
Highlighted Recap
It was a nice pitching duel filled with pitching and defense. Stuff like a leaping catch by Neto.
Anderson lasted 6 innings and it was still scoreless. It was now a battle of the bullpens. Which one sucked less?
Someone finally scored when Jo Adell doubled in Trout in the 8th.
Soler then drove in 2 more.
Rengifo drove in a 4th run with a hit of his own.
The bullpen did their job. And then so did the offense. Up 4-0 heading into the 9th.
Jansen came in for a non save situation. And the Angels win!
Upcoming
2 more games in Atlanta and then up to Toronto.
