Boston lost its second straight as the Angels came through with a 2-1 win on Monday night when red-hot Mickey Moniak homered in the eighth inning. Los Angeles now has won four of five while getting good pitching and clutch hitting. Griffin Canning had a couple rough outings which hurt his ERA, but overall he has given the Angels five innings, including on Wednesday when he gave up three runs in 5 1/3 innings against Baltimore. The Angels' bullpen has the second-most saves in the majors with 17, along with a 1.22 WHIP. Brayan Bello has a .295 opponent batting average while allowing 16 runs (14 earned) in 28 1/3 innings this season. The Angels have won 15 of 20 against right-handed starters and they are 12-5 after allowing two or fewer runs their previous game. The Red Sox are 18-37 their past 55 road contests against teams with winning records. Make it a Max Play on the Angels.
