ANAHEIM — When Carlos Estevez let go of the pitch, he had an idea that something bad was about to happen.
“As soon as I let it go, I felt I pulled it a little,” the Angels’ closer said. “It cut on me. That’s the only spot he could have done that, down the line like that.”
“He” was Adam Frazier, and he had just hit a two-run homer to cost Estévez his third blown save of the season in the Angels’ crushing 2-1 loss to the Kansas City Royals on Friday night.
