Morin still looking to carve out set bullpen role

HOUSTON -- Mike Scioscia called it "a 307-foot fly ball," but Mike Morin didn't want to hear it.

"We know the dimensions of the ballpark," Morin said of the three-run homer he served up to Astros left fielder Robbie Grossman, the death nail in the Angels' 4-0 loss on Saturday night. "I didn't execute the pitch -- bottom line."

The pitch was an 0-1 fastball that stayed up, moments after Jose Altuve was intentionally walked with first base open and the Angels trailing by one in the bottom of the seventh.
