Ho hum. Another start, another win for Angels emerging starter Andrew Heaney.
The 24-year-old Heaney notched his fifth straight Sunday against Texas. It was tougher than the 13-7 final indicates - his offense didn't explode until after he was removed from the game. He allowed just two runs on six hits in six innings with one walk and four strikeouts.
Heaney gave up single runs in the third and fourth on a Rougned Odor single and bases loaded hit-by-pitch. He retired seven of the last eight batters he faced.
The southpaw has been tremendously effective and consistent since landing a spot in the rotation in late June. He has six straight quality starts in which he has given up two runs or less and now boasts a 1.79 ERA.
