A sweep of the hated Angels. That’s always something that warms the cockles of the heart, particularly after having an unpleasant 1-3 series against them in Anaheim in the not too distant past.
Lance Lynn wasn’t particularly sharp today, having trouble with his command and seeming to leave some pitches in hittable parts of the zone too often, but he battled through it and put Texas in a position to win. The Angels put a run on the board in the second and another in the third, and seemed to kind of be perpetually on the verge of a big inning, but Lynn managed to escape the jams, or, in the sixth with two out, let Jesse Chavez escape it for him.
