The Astros use a pair of Yordan Alvarez two-run homers and good situational hitting to beat the Angels for the fourth time in five tries in the young season, 8-3.
HOUSTON — The Angels watched the Houston Astros put on a clinic in small ball and big ball on Monday night.
By contrast, when the Angels had their best chance to at least tie the score with some good situational hitting, they came up empty. Andrew Velazquez surprisingly then also bunted, dribbling a ball right back to the mound. Mayfield held at third. After the Astros intentionally walked Shohei Ohtani, Taylor Ward hit a fly ball to end the inning with a zero on the scoreboard.“The play was there,” Maddon said. “We work on things. If he puts it down where we’d like him to put it down, it would have been first and third and a run scored and all kind of good stuff happens. It was just a bad bunt.
The Angels came up short against the Astros for the fourth time in five games so far this season, contrasted with five wins in six games against the Miami Marlins and Texas Rangers.
