Royals To Get A Taste Of Angels' Colon
(Sports Network) - Bartolo Colon attempts to win his third consecutive start off the disabled list tonight for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, who will be aiming to continue their recent dominance of the Kansas City Royals.
After missing nearly nine months to rehab a partially torn right rotator cuff, Colon returned to a major-league mound on April 21 and delivered an outstanding performance against the Seattle Mariners. The former American League Cy Young winner allowed just one run on seven hits to lead the Angels to a 7-6 victory.
Colon was even more impressive against Tampa Bay on Thursday, as he struck out 11 Devil Rays and gave up only two runs and four hits in seven innings of his team's 11-3 triumph.
The veteran right-hander owns a 13-7 career record with a 4.74 earned run average in 23 career starts against Kansas City, although he lost his only outing versus the Royals last season. That came in Kauffman Stadium on July 21, when Colon surrendered four runs -- three runs -- in six innings of work.
