Game Preview
Yesterday the Los Angeles Angels struggled a lot against the Kansas City Royals and ended up picking a 6-2 loss at home. Today they’ll try to bounce back from the opening defeat, though they still continue to adjust to the loss of 3rd baseman Anthony Rendon, who is due to undergo season-ending right wrist surgery this week.
“We certainly have guys who can go over there and play well defensively. But when you take Anthony Rendon out of the lineup, the way he works pitchers and takes at-bats, just that name in the lineup, it’s different. I’m not going to lie to you. But with where he’s at, he just couldn’t go, so we’ll piece it together every day” That’s what interim manager Phil Nevin said about the Angels situation regarding Rendon.
The Angels’ biggest winning factor, Mike Trout, who hit five homers in the five-game series at Seattle, was limited to a single in four AB yesterday. On the other hand, the Royals have 4 wins in their past 5 games after yesterday’s victory, an outcome that snapped the Angels’ three-game winning streak.
Jonathan Heasley is making his 8th start of the season for the Kansas City Royals. He is on a 1-3 record while holding a 3.72 ERA and a 1.40 WHIP over 36.1 innings pitched. Heasley was last seen on the mound on Wednesday in the Royals’ 3-2 win over the San Francisco Giants, where he allowed 2 runs on 5 hits and 2 walks while striking 4 over 4 innings.
On the other side, the Los Angeles Angels are sending out Reid Detmers as their starting pitcher, who is making his 12th start of the season. Detmers holds a 2-3 record with a 4.25 ERA and a 1.08 WHIP over 53 innings pitched. He picked up his 3rd loss against the Los Angeles Dodgers, when he gave up 4 runs on 4 hits and 3 walks in just 3.2 innings.
