Reid Detmers gave up two runs in the first and then bounced back to shut out the Astros over the next five innings, but the Angels didn’t score after the fourth inning.
ANAHEIM — Once the Houston Astros were done giving the Angels runs, the Angels were done scoring.
“We had a lot of opportunities,” Manager Phil Nevin said. “Certainly had some base runners out there. Took some good at bats and just didn’t get a big hit.” Brandon Marsh struck out to end it, the 11th strikeout of the game for the Angels. One of the other most frustrating ones was in the eighth, when Taylor Ward took a called third strike to strand runners at first and second.
The Angels strikeout problems have been well documented as they’ve struggled over the past six weeks.It was a tough loss for the Angels after Detmers pitched well, bouncing back from a rough first inning. He gave up two runs in six innings, after pitching six scoreless innings in his last outing.
