That helps the team and the bullpen guys a lot more.
"A complete-game shutout is very special for everybody. He completed the outing by getting Ohtani on a grounder to second base before greeting Vázquez near the first-base line.

"Anytime (Ohtani) steps in the box, you're on full awareness out there on the mound and you have to make really, really quality pitches to him," Wacha said. Wacha threw a pair of 96 mph fastballs while striking out Ohtani in the sixth inning and a 94 mph fastball while striking out Jo Adell to end the eighth. Trout cut off the ball but Verdugo scored anyway ahead of the throw home. Verdugo singled leading off the inning and was attempting to steal second with two outs when Vázquez singled toward the gap in left-center. The Red Sox used Alex Verdugo's speed to score in the second. "But I'm not going to denigrate the effort by the guys." We're not winning games right now," Maddon said. But then Ohtani was doubled off second base to end the threat after Jared Walsh lined out to first baseman Franchy Cordero. The Angels appeared to be in business in the first inning, getting consecutive one-out singles from Shohei Ohtani and Trout. The former New York Mets star also matched up against Wacha on May 3, giving up three runs on eight hits over seven innings while taking the loss. Syndergaard (4-4) gave up five hits with one walk and three strikeouts. The former Cardinals standout went 5 2/3 shutout innings against Los Angeles at home on May 3. Wacha (4-1) issued one walk and had six strikeouts in his second scoreless outing against the Angels this season. "And today he was taking (batting practice) at 12:30 against guys we had to bring in to throw to him. "He's arguably one of the best players, top three, and maybe the best by the end of time," Angels manager Joe Maddon said about Trout. Trout snapped his slump his first time up, but the Los Angeles offense mustered little else in the opener of a seven-game homestand. Now continue to build off this one and take some stuff from here and work on it."
"My last start, things were coming out how I was used to it and just continue to build off those previous starts after coming off the IL," Wacha said. The gem came in Wacha's fourth start since returning from a stint on the injured list because of soreness in his left side.
