Dylan Bundy will try to extend his impressive start for the Angels when the veteran right-hander takes the mound against the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday night at Angel Stadium.
Bundy, acquired in a trade with the Baltimore Orioles in December, is 2-1 with a 2.08 earned-run average in his first three starts, striking out 25 and walking two in 21 2/3 innings. He threw his third career complete game in Thursday’s 6-1 win at Seattle, allowing one run and four hits while striking out 10 and walking one.
The Angels snapped Oakland’s nine-game winning streak with a 10-9 victory Monday night, overcoming a 9-4 fourth-inning deficit with the help of home runs from Mike Trout, who hit a two-run shot in the fourth and a tiebreaking solo shot in the eighth, and Shohei Ohtani, who hit a score-tying two-run shot in the sixth.
A’s center fielder Ramon Laureano was scheduled to start a six-game suspension for charging Houston’s dugout and causing a benches-clearing incident during Sunday’s game in Oakland, but he elected to appeal the punishment and will remain active until the appeal is complete. Laureano will bat second Tuesday night.
