- A locked-in Mike Trout and effective starting pitching is a difficult duo for any opponent to overcome when facing the Los Angeles Angels.
What pleased Sandoval the most, though, was that he issued only one free pass after walking five in his first two starts. He also threw 59 of his 90 pitches for strikes, after entering the game with a 57.7% strike rate.
"It was definitely better than the last two starts. There's still room to improve for sure, but it's a good step in the right direction," said Sandoval, who went at least seven innings for the fourth time in 32 career starts."Limiting walks is definitely the biggest thing for me because I want to go deeper into games."
The win improved the Angels' record to 11-7. It is only the third time since 2009 they have been over .500 after 18 games. The last time was 2018 when they got off to a 13-5 start. The Guardians have dropped all five games on their road trip but averted a second consecutive shutout in Anaheim when Straw began the ninth inning with a base hit and scored on José Ramírez's one-out double off
