On Sunday afternoon in Anaheim the Angels completed a 3-game sweep of the Astros, dumping Houston to 1-5 on the most important road trip of the season.
It took 13 innings on the series opener but the Angels were 4-3 winners. Chris Carter and Matt Dominguez each homered for Houston in the loss.
Jarred Cosart got a No-Decision, lasting 6 innings and allowing 2 runs (1 earned) on 5 hits. The loss went to Paul Clemens as he pitched 3+ innings out of the bullpen. The only hit Clemens allowed was a leadoff solo homer to Albert Pujols in the 13th.
George Springer and Carter each hit solo homers for the Astros in game two but it was all the offense Houston got in an 11-2 drubbing.
Starter Jeff Locke was hammered for 7 runs on 10 hits in just 3.1 innings as his record dipped back to .500 at 10-10.
Houston was blanked in the series finale, 3-0. Speculation persists that Manager Bo Porter will not be employed by the club when they return from the trip, should the woes continue in Arlington.
Brad Peacock took the loss; he lasted 6 innings and allowed 3 runs on 5 hits.
HOU 3-9-3 F/13
LAA 4-10-1
HOU 2-9-0
LAA 11-18-0
HOU 0-5-0
LAA 3-7-1
Houston will travel to Arlington next for four games with the division-leading Rangers beginning Monday.
