The Angels are struggling to hit with runners in scoring position, .211 in five playoff games, just like 2007 and ‘08.
Lost amidst a three-game sweep of the Red Sox and five relatively effective performances from the starting pitchers is a most unwelcome playoff trend for the Angels.
The Angels are again having difficulty hitting with runners in scoring position, going 4 for 18 in the first two games of the American League Championship Series against the Yankees. They were 3 for 15 in Saturday’s 4-3 13-inning loss in Game 2.
If the Angels are to salvage the ALCS, they’re going to need to start hitting in the clutch, beginning with Game 3 today at Angel Stadium.

These are the glory days for the Angels. They used to go decades without a playoff appearance. Now they go to the playoffs just about every year.
When fans look back upon this era of excellence, John Lackey figures to be the starting pitcher who comes to mind. He earned his 100th win for the Angels on Sunday, joining Chuck Finley, Nolan Ryan, Frank Tanana and Mike Witt in that distinguished club.
“It’s a big deal,” Lackey said. “The list is pretty short of guys who have done it in this uniform. Those are some pretty big names. It’s cool to be in the same sentence with those guys.”

Over the last few years, starting pitching has been one of the main reasons the Angels have been so competitive in the American League West.
After all, from 2006 to 2008, the Angels’ starting pitchers ranked second in both the American League and the Majors with an averaged ERA of 4.17. And that was a major reason why the club won the division in both 2007 and 2008.
But this year has been about the offense for the Angels, with the club leading the Majors in runs scored, while the starting pitching hasn’t been as strong.
