The scene wasn't encouraging Sunday and neither was the news Monday for Keynan Middleton.
The Angels reliever was diagnosed with a damaged elbow ligament, an injury that could end his season.
Middleton will get a second opinion before deciding what to do next. Whatever course he and the Angels choose, he likely won't pitch for a while.
The hard-throwing Middleton had emerged in his second big league season as the Angels' best option to close games. He leads the team with six saves.
But he began May on the disabled list because of elbow inflammation.
