Chase Silseth gave up one run and four hits as the Angels' stellar pitching continued in the 5-1 sweep of the New York Yankees on Wednesday.
Silseth pitched 5 ⅔ innings, shutting out the Yankees through five until Giancarlo Stanton connected on a solo home run to start the top of the sixth inning. It was the only run he gave up on the four hits and two batters he walked in the game. Silseth followed the run up by striking out his next two batters, a career-high total of 10 strikeouts in his outing.He was pulled for José Soriano to get the final out of the sixth, having already thrown 85 pitches.
Soriano gave up one run after hitting a batter and giving up two singles. He walked the bases loaded, but escaped the jam by striking out Oswaldo Peraza to get out of the inning. Matt Moore also gave up a solo home run to Franchy Cordero in the eighth.A Shohei Ohtani trade would likely be with a contending team with plenty to offer. What do four such teams have available in their farm systems?
The Angels offense got its first four runs in the first two innings on two-run home runs, the first hit by Taylor Ward and the second by Luis Rengifo. They added two more runs in the third on RBIs from Eduardo Escobar and Mickey Moniak. Ward also hit a ground-rule double to score another run in the bottom of the eighth.
