Angels Vs. Mariners Series Preview: TV Schedule, Probable Pitchers & More

The Angels are trying to get back in the win column. A series against the Mariners at home seems like a good place to start.

The Los Angeles Angels would rather forget about their recent trip to Oakland, which ended with them losing a three-game series and ceding second place in the American League West to the Athletics. They will get a chance to regroup as they return to the Big A and look to take some of their frustrations out on the Seattle Mariners.

The Mariners have just lost back-to-back series, losing two of three to the New York Yankees and being swept by the Baltimore Orioles.
