That was James Paxton’s first appearance against the Angels this year. M’s fans must have been feeling pretty good, since Paxton has been their best pitcher. He lasted all of 2 outs, and then having to exit the game after injuring himself in the back while turning to watch Albert Pujols homer to right centerfield and put him down 0-3. The first warning sign that Paxton was going to get shelled was David Fletcher’s first career home run, coming on Paxton’s second pitch of the game.
