Canning gives Angels length but not zeros


Canning gives Angels length but not zeros

"That was a tough one there," manager Ron Washington said. "That's the second one we had that we let get away. Canning did a heck of a job. He went out there in the seventh inning, and we were hoping he could get us through that inning. But they strung some stuff together and we went to extra innings. We had a runner at third with one out and the right part of the lineup up [in the 10th], but we got nothing out of it."

Canning was efficient, throwing 88 pitches (65 strikes). He entered the seventh having thrown only 70 pitches and with the Angels up by two runs. But he couldn't hold the lead, as he allowed three hits in the inning -- including a key RBI double from rookie James Wood, who also hit a solo homer in the second. Juan Yepez sparked the rally with a hard-hit single that got by shortstop Zach Neto, who said he misread the play and tried to attack it from the side instead of going right at it.
