The Angels, after squandering five shutout innings by Shoehei Ohtani on Wednesday in a 3-1 loss, try to salvage the last game of a four-game series Thursday against the Tampa Bay Rays at 6:38 p.m. in Anaheim.
Things look better for the Angels as they’re around -135 favorites with Andrew Heaney facing Tampa Bay’s Collin McHugh. Heaney (1-2, 5.25 ERA, 1.12 WHIP) was off to a decent start this season after getting rocked in his first game by the White Sox. In his last appearance, he had three strong outings before getting knocked around by the Mariners (allowing four runs in 3 1/ 3 innings).
