The Los Angeles Angels did not have a successful weekend in Houston against the Astros this weekend, as they only took 1 out of the 4 games after 3 games of pitching struggles, a lack of delivering in scoring opportunities, and more. Game 1 on Thursday saw Reid Detmers struggle to finish the at-bat despite being up 0-2 on a hitter several times. Is this Detmers issue, a coaching issue, or something else? Jon and Mike share their thoughts on why this struggle keeps happening, and they also discuss the horribly missed call by the umpire against Taylor Ward in segment 1.
Then, the Super Halo Bros. discuss Friday and Saturday’s games, which saw two more losses for the Halos. Shohei Ohtani was on the mound Friday, but did not have a winning performance after surrendering two home runs and 5 earned runs total. The sweeper still seems to be giving him trouble, and we discuss why. On Saturday, Patrick Sandoval’s start was cut short, and Jon thinks he knows why. While Ohtani almost hit for the cycle on Saturday, the rest of the offense fell short in mounting a comeback against the Astros. We’ll break it down for you in segment 2!
Plus, Sunday saw the Angels finally salvage a win in a tightly-pitched ballgame, as Griffin Canning delivered another strong start followed by Chris Devenski and Carlos Estevez keeping the Astros off the board. It was Luis Rengifo who broke up a no-hitter in the 5th with a solo home run, and Shohei Ohtani driving in the go-ahead RBI with Zach Neto on base! That’s all it took to keep the Halos from walking away winless this weekend. We’ll give you all the details in segment 3!
