New York's Losing Streak Was Extended To Four Games Last Night Because Jameson Taillon Who Started For Them Struggled Verses The Los Angeles Angels In Anaheim California
New York’s losing streak was extended to four games last night because Jameson Taillon who started for them verses the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim California struggled!
How?
Jameson Taillon navigated scorelessly into the fourth, but the right-hander hung an 0-2 curveball that Jared Walsh slugged for a three-run homer.
Jameson Taillon surrendered six runs and could not complete the fifth inning,
In the fifth, Taillon was one strike away from wriggling out of a bases-loaded jam. Phil Gosselin squared up a fastball for a two-run single to center field, ending Taillon’s 92-pitch effort.
And New York lost to the Los Angeles Angels though New York had 10 hits in the contest, trimming the Halos’ advantage in the eighth as DJ LeMahieu, Rizzo and Aaron Judge opened the inning with knocks off right-hander Junior Guerra.
Giancarlo Stanton lifted a deep sacrifice fly that brought New York within two runs, but Gio Urshela and pinch-hitter Luke Voit struck out against Jake Petricka. New York went down in order against closer Raisel Iglesias in the ninth.
Brett Gardner who is the longest tenured player had this to say about New York’s loss!
Losing four in a row is very frustrating; just unacceptable,” “We’ve been playing really good baseball for a while now. Anytime you win that many games in a row, you’re playing well and having some things going your way. These last few days, we’ve been in the games and had opportunities to change the outcome. We just haven’t been able to.”
