The Oakland Athletics won for just the fifth time this season, knocking off the Los Angeles Angels, 11-10, in a wild one last night at Angel Stadium. Tonight the Angels should even the score when they play the second game of their 4-game set. Two young hurlers will oppose each other with Griffin Canning expected to get the nod for the Halos and Mason Miller for the A’s. Canning is 0-0 with a 3.48 ERA, a 1.16 WHIP, and had a decent outing in his last turn, holding the Yankees to just 2 runs on 4 hits over 5-1/3 innings. Miller, who will be making his second Big League start, is 0-0 with a 4.15 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP. He will be put to the test tonight when he has to face two of the best in the business for the first time, Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani, and let’s not forget about Anthony Rendon. The Angels are 14-6 in their last 20 in Anaheim and I expect the Angels heavy hitters to light it up tonight.
TONIGHT’S PICK: LOS ANGELES ANGELS
