Taylor Ward Lifts Los Angeles Angels to WIN Over Yankees! Who's to Blame for Pitching Struggles? Angel Hernandez Retires

Locked On Angels - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Angels

The Los Angeles Angels faced a tough New York Yankees lineup on Tuesday night at the Big A, but it was some timely hitting from Taylor Ward in the 8th inning that put them over the Yankees, 4-3! Not only that, but the bullpen kept the Yankees out of the hit column for 4-straight innings, leading to Carlos Estevez getting the 1-2-3 save in the 9th! Kevin Pillar contributed with another home run, and Griffin Canning pitched 5 innings with 3 earned runs. While it was a feel-good win for the Halos, it wasn't without its problems, and we'll give you a breakdown of the game in segment 1!

Then, who's to blame for the pitching struggles on the team? One player is taking responsibility, and it's Logan O'Hoppe. What did he have to say to Jeff Fletcher of the OC Register about it? We'll give you the details and discuss if O'Hoppe can move from problem to solution in segment 2!

Plus, Umpire Angel Hernandez announced his retirement on Monday, much to the joy of baseball fans everywhere! Did MLB give him the nudge to do so, and, who's next? We'll share our reactions to the news in segment 3!
