Angels’ Ron Washington preaches patience with slumping hitters
ANAHEIM — In the midst of an offensive downturn that has the Angels sliding at a rapid pace, Manager Ron Washington remains in full support of his players.
Does Mike Trout’s low batting average show his profile as a hitter is changing?
“Let’s wait until we get some baseball under us …,” Washington said, in part.
With Nolan Schanuel starting this season with similar numbers to last year, is he making progress?
“Of course he’s making progress. He’s a contact hitter,” Washington said.
