What does the blowout sandwiched between losses tell us about where the Angels really stand?
As writer Dennis Georgatos pointed out in covering the series for Southern California News Group readers, the Angels’ plus-20 run difference in a regular-season series is the second-largest in major league history for a team that lost the series, exceeded only by the Chicago Colts’ 23-run edge in losing two of three to the Louisville Colonels in a National League game in 1897 .
“Baseball, like history, moves in strange and shifting eddies,” columnist Jimmy Powers wrote in the New York Daily News, and who hasn’t said exactly that a few times? No doubt that’s the worry of many Angels fans frustrated by the Halos’ recent 7-7 stretch, which includes two losses by one run and four other losses by the bullpen.Look: There’s nothing bad about crafting ways to win one-run decisions. But if you’re trying to predict which teams will go farthest, it’s as good if not better to look at run difference than records in one-run games.
