As exciting as the Angels (8-6) have looked at times this season, they’ve had their struggles in other facets of the game, specifically on defense. The Halos retook the mantle as MLB’s league leader in defensive errors (17), while adding three more in Monday’s 6-4 loss against the Rangers.
It’s been one of the big differences between wins and losses for the Angels thus far as the team has committed 13 errors in their six losses. Yesterday was no exception, as Texas scored five runs in the sixth inning where the Halos committed two of their miscues on the night.
