Zack Wheeler struck out nine over six solid innings and Johan Camargo had four RBIs to help the Phillies win 7-2 and send slumping slugger Mike Trout and the Los Angeles Angels to their 10th straight defeat, their worst skid in almost six years.
Trout, the three-time AL MVP, struck out three times and went 0 for 4 in front of his hometown South Jersey fans to extend his hitless streak to a career-worst 0 for 23.9 Separate Shootings In Philadelphia Leaves Pregnant Woman Dead, 8 Others Injured: Police
The Phillies won 10-0 a night earlier in interim manager Rob Thomson’s debut and kept mashing with five runs in the first inning. J.T. Realmuto ripped a two-run, bases-loaded double to left field and Camargo slashed a two-RBI single to right. Mickey Moniak’s RBI infield single off Angels starter Michael Lorenzen made it 5-0 — and 15 runs over the first full nine innings of Thomson’s tenure.
“I’m still preparing certain things that I need during the game, but there’s less of that and it’s more about being with the players, communicating with them,” Thomson said.Lorenzen settled down and struck out a career-high nine over 5 2/3 innings. He walked four batters in the first inning. The Angels have lost 14 of 17 games overall and played nothing like the team that started 24-13 and was tied for first in the AL West on May 15. The Angels have scored only four runs over the last four games. It could get worse: Los Angeles wraps the three-game series Sunday and returns home to play the Red Sox and NL East-best New York Mets.
