400♦ ANGELS (Action) - Following Saturday’s 11-5 loss, I wouldn’t be surprised if Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire bused his team up Katella Avenue to Disneyland and had them trade their uniforms in for Drwrf uniforms at Disneyland. Dopey, Sleepy, Grumpy … pick a name, er, adjective, as the Twins’ mistake-riddled fourth inning saw the Angels put up nine runs on 10 hits.

For the Halos, the inning marked the most hits in a single inning in 12 years, the most runs in one frame this season and the first time in franchise history three hitters had two hits in a three-out span.

The Angels have now won eight straight games, while Minnesota is 1-6 in their past seven games and four in a row. And since the Twins will be playing their 10th straight games in as many days, Gardenhire’s cast of characters will be looking to get this series, and road trip, over with as quickly as possible.

And for the Halos, they’re going to love completing the sweep to finish up their revenge-quest after the Twins took a three-game set in Minneapolis back in April. I’m not going to worry about listing any pitchers in this one, although I do think Anthony Swarzak is in a lot of trouble in this matinee.

Looking deeper inside the numbers here, the Angels have won 21 of 27 and 23 of 31 contests on Sundays. Conversely, the Twins are mired in losing streaks of 1-5 against the American League West and 0-5 in Game 4 of a series. All Angels today.
