The left-hander defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 7-1 on Monday night after pitching seven scoreless innings.
This season, Anderson has pitched 14 innings without giving up a run. After Hector Santiago did it in 2016, he became the first pitcher for the Angels to pitch at least seven scoreless innings in two straight games. In his first two starts of the season, a pitcher for the Angels had never done it before.
On Monday, Anderson was met with a standing ovation when he left the mound in the eighth inning.
That was excellent, Anderson remarked. “We have an amazing following. I believe my pitch to them was weak last year. Thus, it always feels pleasant to start the year this way when individuals are present.
Mike Trout, who is likewise trying to prove something this season to a lesser extent, provided Anderson with all the оffensive help he needed. Trout tied the major league lead with a triple and his fifth home run of the year. He was a single as well. With an OPS of 1.138, the three-time MVP of the American League is currently hitting.297.
With his three hits, Taylor Ward also scored three runs. Among them was a single that brought in Trout following his RBI triple in the first inning. With nine right-handed hitters in the Rays lineup, Anderson easily navigated through them to take a 2-0 lead before the second inning.
After giving up a leadoff Һit in the eighth, he walked off to a standing ovation after needing just 91 pitches to record 21 outs. He walked one and struck out three.
He only ran into trouble once, in the fourth inning.
After Anderson gave Randy Arozarena a walk, Isaac Paredes grounded out for a double down the third base line. Amed Rosario lined one right to first baseman Brandon Drury, but it was sharp. Then Trout caught a fly ball shot by Curtis Mead on the warning track.
According to Anderson, his defense and mentаl attitude have improved from last year to this one.
Anderson remarked, “I think really just trying to go pitch to pitch, and not try to think too much.” “Just make an effort to complete as many as you can. Furthermore, I think our defense has improved significantly over the past two games. I don’t get struck out that much. Our placement has been excellent. Numerous topics that we have discussed. Our staff has made wonderful adjustments, and the guys have done a great job. It’s crucial to have guys at the right places at the right times.
After a dismal stint with the squad, Anderson received some assistance from another player hoping to add some worth for the Angels.
It was Anthony Rendon’s first multi-Һit game of the season with two singles and a double. Since beginning the season 0-for-21, Rendon is presently 6 for 16. Rendon got things started in the game with a Һit, and Trout’s triple into right field brought him home. The Angels led 5-0 after a two-run outburst in the fifth inning, ignited by Rendon’s single. Another run scored in the ninth on Rendon’s double.
Luis Rengifo singled in a run as well in the seventh inning.
