The Angels fail to capitalize on a decent start from Griffin Canning, struggling to score runs in a sweeping 5-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners.
Luis Castillo threw seven shutout innings, Mitch Garver hit a three-run double and the Seattle Mariners beat the Angels 5-1 on Sunday for a sweep of their weekend series. Castillo was brilliant in his first win since May 12. The right-hander struck out six and walked three — all on 3-2 pitches. Castillo surrendered two hits on Taylor Ward's double in the first and Kyren Paris' broken-bat single in the third.
Only the 2001 team that won 116 games had a better start at home at 25-7. Angels starter Griffin Canning had his best performance of the season and nearly matched Castillo. Canning struck out four and walked one while pitching into the seventh inning for the first time this season. Canning’s lone mistake was a 1-2 sinker to Luke Raley that stayed in the middle of the plate. Raley connected for a solo drive that barely cleared the wall in right field for his sixth homer of the season.
