The Los Angeles Angels and the Tampa Bay Rays will settle their score in Wednesday’s series finale at Angel Stadium.
The Rays evened the series on Tuesday at 1-1 after winning Game 2, 7-3. Brandon Lowe belted a two-run homer to ignite Tampa Bay’s 7-0 blast in the 4th inning. Ryan Pepiot also secured a win after allowing two earned runs over 5.2 innings. Jo Addell tried to rally his team back into the game with a two-run homer in the 5th inning and an RBI single in the 6th inning. Still, the Rays’ bullpen shut down any possibility of a comeback by holding the Angels scoreless in the final three innings.
Tuesday’s setback ended the Angels’ two-game win streak. Los Angeles sits fourth in the AL West with a 55-59 record. The Angels are averaging 4.0 runs per game and pitching a 4.00 ERA in their last five assignments. These are solid numbers for any major league team, yet the Angels still lose bunches of winnable games this year.

Our Tampa Bay Rays vs Los Angeles Angels Prediction
Two of the worst pitching teams will face off on Wednesday. In their last three meetings, these two teams have combined for an average of 9.33 runs per game, with the Angeles averaging 6.33 runs. The total has gone over in 13 of the LA Angels' last 19 games against Tampa Bay and 14 of the LA Angels' last 20 games at home.
Rays’ starter Shane Baez (0-5, 6.49 ERA) and Angels’ lefty Tyler Andreson (1-4, 5.74 ERA), the starters for Wednesday’s series finale, don’t have the numbers of a pitcher who can dominate opposing batters and keep the scores low. Although the bullpens from both teams have been churning out outstanding numbers in the past five games (Tampa Bay 1.05 ERA; Los Angeles 1.00 ERA), I still expect the big bats to make their presence felt early, bumping the total score past 9 runs.
Our betting prediction for the Los Angeles Angels vs. the Tampa Bay Rays: Over 9.0 runs.
