As has been the case in a good chunk of their games against the Athletics this season, the Angels could not get enough going with the bats on Sunday afternoon despite bringing the game into extras with a late rally, falling for the third day in a row to Oakland by a final of 3-2.
The Halos squared off against A’s starter Frankie Montas in this one, and he absolutely dominated their shorthanded lineup. Montas finished seven innings with ease, allowing just a lone double to Brandon Marsh in the third inning while striking out seven batters. The only knock on his outing would be the three unintentional free passes that he issued, but every runner that reached via the walk against him failed to advance even one more base after getting on.
