The Angels jumped on the Rocket for nine hits and five runs in just over four innings on Saturday night as the Angels beat the Stros in the second game of their weekend series at the Juice Box, 6-4.
Bags with his second solo yak of the series and Bidg‘s two run double capped a four run Stros uprising in the seventh that made things interesting, but the rally waned as most Stros rallies do these days. David Weathers, just making it to town after the Hidalgo trade, made his Stros debut with two innings of scoreless relief.
By the way, Richard Hidalgo was 0 for 3 in the Mets’ game tonight, and is now 0-7 as a Met. Those New York sportswriters will fillet Hidalgo before long.
Wade Miller takes the hill for the Sunday matinee at 1 p.m. against the Angels’ Jared Washburn.
