ANAHEIM, Calif. — Once the Houston Astros were done giving the Angels runs, the Angels were done scoring.
The Angels lost to the Astros, 3-2, in 10 innings on Thursday, dropping the rubber game of the three-game series.
The Angels had erased an early two-run deficit, scoring a run on a bases-loaded walk in the third and a wild pitch in the fourth. Otherwise, the Angels reverted to their offensive malaise after scoring 12 runs in the first two games of this series. They stranded 14 runners and went 0 for 9 with runners in scoring position during their 10th loss in 12 games.
