Mike Moustakas hits game-winning homer as Royals hand Angels fourth loss in a row

The Angels fell, 3-2, to Kansas City on Saturday night at Kauffman Stadium, an eighth-inning blast by Chatsworth native Mike Moustakas supplying the Royals’ winning run. The Angels have lost four consecutive games.

It was a tight game throughout. After Yunel Escobar’s leadoff flyout, Ben Revere tapped a grounder through the left side, and took third base when Mike Trout singled through to right field. Trout then swiped second base, which eliminated the double-play possibility, a decision that became prescient when Albert Pujols grounded to shortstop.
