What a wretched performance by the Astros. Lost 2-1 to the Angels, who came in with second-worst bullpen ERA in baseball and shut down Astro hitters in embarrassing fashion. Astros lost series to one of worst teams in baseball.
Kyren Paris' first career homer is the difference as the @Angels take the series in Houston. https://t.co/h7ZyenTBO0
