Red Sox Pitcher Sonny Gray Takes the Mound
Sonny Gray brings serious heat to Angel Stadium on Sunday. The veteran right-hander is 3-0 this season with a 2.66 ERA. He's struck out 39 batters and keeps opponents off-balance with his 1.08 WHIP. Gray's control is sharpāhe doesn't give free passes. Boston's rotation has taken hits with injuries, but Gray is the ace stepping up when the team needs him most. Watch him attack the zone early and often. The Red Sox won big yesterday 5-2, and Gray wants to keep that momentum rolling.
Angels Fighting to Stop a Losing Streak
Los Angeles sits at 36-53 and is dropping games fast. The Angels have lost four straight and need to find their way back. Sam Aldegheri takes the mound for the home team, but he's an unknown against Boston's lineup. The Red Sox dominated yesterday's game at Angel Stadium, crushing the Angels 5-2. Boston's bats were aliveāDurbin went yard, and the offense piled on runs early. The Angels have to weather this storm and stay tough at home. One win could spark something bigger.
Sunday's Pitching Matchup and What to Watch
This matchup puts Gray's excellence against the Angels' uncertainty. Gray is the Red Sox's trusted arm after Boston's injury troubles. Aldegheri is less proven, and that could make a huge difference. Boston's bats woke up yesterday with Durbin's blast and multiple runs in the third inning. The Red Sox came ready to play. If Gray keeps mowing down batters and Boston's offense stays hot, the Angels face another tough afternoon at home. Watch the early inningsāthat's where games get decided.
