For the second night in a row, the Angels non-Trout/Pujols players on the Angels squad proved they can get some runs on the board, and pick up the slack when needed. 12 hits, including another Chris Iannetta homer, and some solid pitching lead to a 5-2 win over the Twins.
The Twins took to the field tonight in hopes that ,even with Mike Trout back in the lineup(at DH), they would stand a chance to stop the Angels’ perpetual offense-motion machine that has vanquished foes all across the MLB land in the month of July. They didn’t fare too well against a Trout-less lineup last night, and as much as they were wishing for the opposite this evening, the Angels were relentless as usual, and even better, it was the second night in a row where they were getting production from outside the realm of Pujols and Trout.
