Angels fall 2-1 in Oakland pitching duel to remain tied with Astros in divisional standings

Across 12.2 innings in a 3-1 series loss, the Angels bullpen has been spectacular. Maybe “spectacular” is a little strong, but it is hard not to use more extravagant words when comparing it directly to the lineup. Zero runs allowed, earned or otherwise, and that is with literally every single reliever having made an appearance. That includes the likes of Cam Bedrosian, Luke Bard, and Luis Garcia.

Today, this same bullpen did yet another fantastic job of shutting down the last half of the game. It may not have always been pretty, as the aforementioned Luis Garcia had to maneuver out of a botched double play, an intentional walk, and an unintentional walk in order to do it, but it got the job done.
