Jo Adell of the Los Angeles Angels missed a potentially game-changing steal on Wednesday night against the Baltimore Orioles due to a contentious ruling. Pitcher Craig Kimbrel of the Orioles, who is noted for his methodical delivery, faced a hazardous run for second base when Adell stole the tying run with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. Following that, there was a stunned silence.
Adell appeared to have touched the edge of second base prior to the tag, but second base umpire Nic Lentz pronounced him out. There was a lengthy wait during which there was optimism for a reversal when the Angels contested the call. But after reviewing the replay in MLB’s headquarters, the commissioner finally decided that the call “stands,” which infuriated Adell and the supporters.
Adell showed his dissatisfaction following the game by saying,
“Everyone is watching the video and gazing at the image. There was a huge difference between where my foot struck and where I was tagged.”Star player Mike Trout and Angels manager Ron Washington both offered their thoughts on Adell and said they hoped she was safe.
Against the Baltimore Orioles, the Los Angeles Angels were in the midst of an incredible comeback.
What should have been an incredible comeback for the Angels was overshadowed by the controversy. They were behind 6-0 halfway through the game, but they rallied valiantly and by the ninth inning, the gap had been reduced to just two runs. Their final opportunity to win the game against the Baltimore Orioles came when Adell attempted a base steal, but destiny had other plans.
The Los Angeles Angels have been struggling lately; this sad turn of circumstances makes their sixth loss in seven games even more concerning. Nevertheless, there is a ray of optimism amid the disappointment. Despite the result, Adell’s effort demonstrates his tenacity as a vital member of the team.
The Los Angeles Angels need to turn their annoyance into inspiration. They have the resiliency to overcome defeats and come out stronger in the upcoming games with Adell changing his strategy.
