José Soriano, young hitters lead the way in Angels' victory over Guardians

José Soriano, young hitters lead the way in Angels' victory over Guardians

CLEVELAND —José Soriano had only three strikeouts in the six innings he pitched in the Angels' 6-0 victory over the Cleveland Guardians on Friday, but two of them were particularly memorable. In the second inning, with the game still scoreless, the Angels had just made an error to put a runner into scoring position. In the fifth, with the bases loaded and two outs, Soriano struck out Andres Gimenez on three pitches, getting him looking at a sinker and a splitter and then whiffing him on a knuckle curve.
