(2) This season the Angels are 2-7 SU off a win and not subsequently facing the horrible Twins: they were -175 & -142 Favs in the 2 wins, the only road game out of them was by a 1 run margin. The 3 times they've lost on the road off a win and weren't facing Minneshitter, the margins were 6, 4 & 7 runs. In short, this team has been woeful off a win (but esp. on the road).
(3) Even including games against Minneshitter, the Angels haven't won consecutive road games this season.
(4) Texas is 4-0 SU & on the RL this season playing at home off a home loss (as -170, -220, -138 & -170 Favs, by 5, 2, 2 & 5 run margins).
(5) Texas is 6-0 SU & 5-1 on the RL this season when playing off a loss in which they totaled 3 runs or less (averaging 6.00 bounceback runs/game).
