On Tuesday, it was the fielding that cost the Phillies a game. Wednesday, it would be the bats.
The Angels took the lead in the first and never looked back, as Garrett Richards and the bullpen combined to shut out the Phillies in a 3-0 Angels win.

A.J. Burnett would start off the game by getting Efren Navarro to ground out before striking out Mike Trout. It would be downhill from there, as Albert Pujols doubled and was brought home on a single by former Phillie Raul Ibanez.
The Angels would tack on a run in both the second and third inning to increase their lead to 3-0 and cruise to victory, as the Phillies offense showed no signs of life on the day.
Burnett would finish the afternoon having allowed three runs across five innings of work, but with the offense only collecting five hits all game, the righty would pick up his third loss of the season.
The Phillies will now welcome the Cincinnati Reds to town, as Kyle Kendrick faces Homer Bailey.
