The Los Angeles Angels are a dog here, but they have a winning road record behind an outstanding offense, crushing the baseball. Los Angeles ranks third in runs scored, second slugging, and is playing in Yankee Stadium, a great hitter's park. Starter Garrett Richards (2-0, 2.52 ERA) has been outstanding, allowing 13 hits in 25 innings along with 24 Ks. Richards had a strong outing against the Nationals on Monday, allowing just one run in six innings pitched while striking out six. He is 2-0 with a 1.00 ERA on the road! The Angels are 7-2 following a loss and 5-1 against the American League East. This is the best offense that New York newcomer Masahiro Tanaka has faced after going against the Red Sox, Cubs, Orioles, and Blue Jays. And the Angels are 18-8 in their last 26 road games vs. a right-handed starter. Play the Los Angeles Angels.
