Angels pitching has been a real weak point all season, springing various leaks during the last four weeks. But on Thursday the dam broke, allowing a season-high 10 runs in a third straight blowout loss to the Giants.
Jose Suarez was called up to take this start, but his outing was shorter than the flight from Anaheim to San Francisco. He faced all batters and recorded only four outs, the fifth time an Angels starter has failed to record an out in the third inning this season, tied with the Royals for the most in MLB.
