Angels’ Silent Slugfest: What’s Behind Their Unprecedented Shutdown Against the Yankees?
But, alas, Wednesday night belonged to the Yankees. The Angels couldn’t find their groove and were held scoreless as New York edged them out 1-0—sealing a sweep and abruptly trampling the glow of that recent eight-game winning streak, reducing it to little more than a fleeting blip rather than a genuine comeback.
As the final out was called on Logan O’Hoppe—a called third strike way outside the zone—frustrations simmered. Both O’Hoppe and manager Ron Washington felt it was decidedly a ball, yet Washington shrugged it off, reminding us all that such things are just part of the unpredictability of baseball, “out of our control,” as he put it. Still, that scoreless stretch going into the last three outs at home speaks volumes about the urgency this offense desperately needs.
