Chris Taylor proves to be a difference-maker for Angels in win over Mariners
Angels second baseman Chris Taylor throws to first base after forcing out a Seattle Mariners runner during the Angels’ 5-4 win Friday night at Angel Stadium.The 34-year-old veteran utilityman scuffled at the plate like he had when wearing Dodger blue — and joined the Angels at the front end of a five-game losing streak. Friday night at Angel Stadium, Taylor put together his best game so far — going two for three with a game-tying RBI double in his first multi-hit performance of the season (his first since Sept. 27).
Taylor also scored the decisive run in the fifth inning on a single from Nolan Schanuel to lift the Angels to a 5-4 win over the Seattle Mariners.
