You knew it wouldn't be easy. Angels with 1st and 3rd with no one out in the top of the 9th. Norris replaced by Jose Veras to face Trumbo.

Astros take their second in a row from the Angels, 3-1.

Vin Scully saying "Didi Gregorius" is great.

Astros take their second in a row from the Angels, 3-1.

Angels had 10 baserunners tonight. Saw a total of 93 pitches as a team. That's hard to do.

In a complete turnaround from yesterday, everyone except the Cards in the NL Central lost today.

Orioles have caught up to the Red Sox. Both are tied for 1st in the AL East at 21-13.

And, due to a gamble with pinch hitters, had to play Vernon Wells at 3B for the bottom of the 9th with a 1-run lead. VW cleanly fielded his only chance.
