With Mike Trout sidelined, Angels turn into men of steal to generate offense

stole 10 bases over the weekend in Houston, more than any iteration of the team had swiped in a three-game series since the franchise’s founding in 1961.

Cameron Maybin stole six bases. Eric Young Jr., Andrelton Simmons, Ben Revere and Danny Espinosa each stole one. The record was a product of a club focused on obtaining offense wherever possible, absent traditional power sources.

The Angels are on pace to steal 137 bases this season, more than the 125 they stole in the last two seasons combined.
