Los Angeles Angels Lose Guardians Series: Comeback Win, Blowpen Loss, Lose-Lose Decision Making
Summary: The Los Angeles Angels dropped the weekend series to the Cleveland Guardians, winning on Friday and losing back-to-back games on Saturday and Sunday. Friday consisted of an epic comeback win in the 9th as we've seen with this Halo team a few times this season, and it's always nice to see the team play without any quit in them. The Super Halo Bros. we'll recap game 1 and give you all the details on how Mike Trout sparked a rally to give them the win in segment 1! Then, in game 2 on Saturday, the Halos were cruising to a victory on Mickey Moniak's birthday. The former number-one overall draft pick led off, hit a home run in his first at-bat, stole 2 bases, and went 3-4 on his big day. In addition, Zach Neto made two incredible plays on defense and also added a 2-run home run to his stats. Unfortunately, the Angels had an all-too-familiar blowpen game, where Ryan Tepera gave up 2 home runs trying to relieve Andrew Wantz. He was DFAd on Sunday after this outing, but unfortunately, it cost the Angels a very winnable game and series on Saturday night. We'll break down the game in segment 2. Plus, Sunday was an early one for us on the West Coast, as Patrick Sandoval and Tanner Bibee had themselves a pitchers' duel. The two former high school teammates went pitch for pitch into the 8th inning, but Josh Naylor, who'd had the Angels' number all weekend, put this one out of reach with a home run off Carlos Estevez. There was a lot of questioning Phil Nevin's decision-making here, as he walked Jose Ramirez to get to the hot bat of Naylor and pulled Patrick Sandoval, but it felt like a tip-your-cap kind of a game in this case.
