Talk about a gut punch of a game. The Astros scored 12 runs, but it simply wasn’t enough as the Angels came back from two late-inning deficits to stun their opponent. Framber Valdez had an up-and-down performance — 13 strikeouts in 6 1⁄3 innings, but five earned runs — until he left the game mid-at-bat, which led to some discomfort of my own. Hopefully, it was only a left calf cramp, as noted in the post-game update.
Framber Valdez said he felt something pull in his left calf during his final pitch of the game.
