Tyler Anderson allows two runs in five innings and Randal Grichuk homers in a loss in Anaheim.
ANAHEIM ― The Angels had not seen Seattle Mariners pitcher George Kirby since April 3, when the young right-hander made his first start of 2023. Kirby was not sharp that day. He allowed four runs in 4 ⅓ innings, and the Angels won.
Kirby allowed only three hits and one run in seven innings as the Angels lost 3-2 to Seattle before an announced crowd of 35,318 at Angel Stadium. After getting swept in a three-game series in Atlanta, the Angels have now lost consecutive home games to a team immediately ahead of them in both the wild card and American League West standings.
The Angels find themselves back at .500 for the 14th time this season, 9 ½ games back in the division, and 6 games back in the wild card race. The Angels got their only run off Kirby in the bottom of the third inning on a solo home run by Randal Grichuk. It was Grichuk’s fourth career homer in Angel Stadium, and his first as a member of the team that selected him in the first round of the 2009 draft.
