Yusei Kikuchi exits early, Angels bullpen gives up another lead in loss to White Sox
The Angels have lost six-straight games.
Los Angeles Angels left fielder Josh Lowe (3) after striking out during the tenth inning against the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field CHICAGO - The state of the Los Angeles Angels bullpen hasn't been a secret this season, but the latest loss against the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday has made the situation undeniable. It was a much tighter affair on Wednesday, but still the Angels entered the ninth inning with a 2-1 lead before disaster struck yet again. Ryan Zeferjahn was on the bump this time for the Angels looking to close out the game, but Tristan Peters was hit by a pitch to put the tying run aboard.

The Angels went down in order in the top of the 10th, but the White Sox proved more resilient in the bottom half of the inning. While the White Sox already had the designated runner on second, Drew Pomeranz, the new Halo hurler sent to preserve the game soon loaded the bases after walking the first two batters that he faced, one of those walks being intentional. Colson Montgomery WALKS IT OFF!
