The Angels managed to salvage the final game of a pathetic homestand. The offense combined to slaughter Masahiro Tanaka, led by a vengeful David Fletcher who would drive in 5 runs. It wouldn’t matter that Cahill was shaky and Cody Allen was worse tonight. As he said in his postgame interview, “I’ve had quite enough of your garbage, pitching staff.” I may have paraphrased.
The game started as poorly as you might expect. The Angels wouldn’t have their first hit of the night until the 4th inning, and the Yankees were already scoring by then, using any means necessary.
