Great win. Came from behind and the bullpen held a one-win lead for 3 innings.

Light it!

Angels have a 2-game winning streak!!!

Just starting to hit too

The infield is dangerously thin already. This could be a bigger issue if he misses much time.

Pirates have not won a series in their past 5 matches, including getting swept by the A's and losing series to Tier 6 Rockies, and Angels.  #Trendingdown.

Series win!  Arte is calling a meeting to switch to buyer mode at the deadline.

Drury hurt his hamstring because he hasn’t run the bases this much for many weeks.

When does Miguel Sano get back? Should be soon no?

I was curious about this as well.

In typical Angels fashion, watch Sanó get activated and Drury get put on the IL.

Last update was Sunday or Monday, I think. Fletcher said they were hopeful he could be activated as soon as tomorrow when they're back home.

Understandably some growing pains for Soriano in the rotation but man he has serious frontline potential.
