Game Wrap 7/26/2026: Angels 4 Giants 3

A 2-run rally in the 9'th inning was too little, too late to overcome a 3-run Angels outburst off Carson Whisenhunt in the 4'th inning.  Key Lines:

Luis Arraez 2B- 2 for 5, 2B, 2 RBI.  BA= .327.  Arraez doubled with 2 outs in the 9'th inning to drive in 2 runs but Heliot Ramos LF followed with a K to end the game.

Willy Adames SS- 1 for 4, 2B, 2 R.  Adames led off the 5'th with a double and scored on a force out/throwing error.  He scored his second run in the 9'th on Arraez' double after reaching base on a fielder's choice.

Drew Cavanaugh C- 2 for 2, 2 BB, R.  BA= .262.  One of Cavanaugh's walks was in the 9'th inning.  He scored on Arraez' double.  Cavanaugh seems to have elite plate discipline with an OBP of .392.  He batting .400, 4 for 10, over his last 7 games and is batting .281, 9 for 32 over his last 15. So far all of his MLB hits are singles.

Carson Whisenhunt LHP- 5 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 2 BB, 7 K's.  ERA= 4.60.  Whisenhunt's day was ruined by a 3-batter sequence in the 4'th inning:  HR, Walk, HR.  Probably not a coincidence that the HR's were from RH batters Jorge Soler and Jo Adell.  

Adrian Houser RHP- 4 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K's, 5/1 GO/AO.  ERA= 4.86.  Houser's ERA is 2.86 in 22 IP over his last 7 appearances and 3.82 in 61.1 IP over his last 15 appearances.  Does he have trade value?  Will he move back into the rotation after the trade deadline?

The BrewCrew comes to town starting tomorrow with Tyler Mahle RHP facing Brandon Sproat RHP who comes in with a 5.09 ERA.
