Angels 1 Blue Jays<\/a> 14<\/p>\n

The only inning that really mattered was the fifth. The Jays scored seven runs in the bottom of the inning and that was more than enough. But the Jays added six more runs in the seventh and eighth.<\/p>\n

Trey Yesavage<\/a> was good enough, for four innings. He allowed four hits, two walks and six strikeouts, while not allowing a run. He was helped out by Addison Barger<\/a> making a terrific throw from right, cutting down what should have been an easy run. Unfortunately, Trey threw a lot of pitches in those four innings, leaving the game with 87 pitches. Pitching deeper into a game would be nice. You can\u2019t get the W if you throw just four innings.<\/p>\n

Five different relievers did a good job too:<\/p>\n

Mason Fluhardy got two strikeouts in the fifth. He got the win.<\/p>\n

Tyler Rogers<\/a> gave up the Angels only run in the eighth, off 3 hits.<\/p>\n

Tommy Nance<\/a> allowed 3 hits in the ninth, but didn\u2019t allow a run in the ninth.<\/p>\n

We had 20 hits.<\/p>\n

Addison Barger didn\u2019t have a hit but had two walks and scored a run. And he threw out a runner from pretty deep right and throwing at 101 mph to get the runner from third.<\/p>\n

Vladimir Guerrero had two hits, with a run and an RBI.<\/p>\n

Jesus Sanchez had two hits, three runs, 2 RBI. One of those hits was a popup that landed just inside the left field line, falling between the third baseman, shortstop and left fielder.<\/p>\n

Brandon Valenzuela went four for five with three runs, four RBI, a double and our only home run.<\/p>\n

The Angels defense was terrible, which helped out. The only had one official error, but could have had three or four if they<\/p>\n

Jays of the Day: Varsho (0.12 WPA), Clement (0.12) and Barger (0.10, plus the throw from right) and Yesavage (0.21) get the number.<\/p>\n

Other Award? Well, George Springer had the number (-0.10).<\/p>\n

Tomorrow the Jays go for the sweep with Eric Lauer<\/a> (1-4, 6.03) going against Jos\u00e9 Soriano (5-2, 1.74). It is a 1:30 start time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Angels 1 Blue Jays 14 The only inning that really mattered was the fifth.
