Rainy day postpones Angels Royals game in Kansas City
Los Angeles Angels manager Mike Scioscia held Juan Rivera out with a strained hamstring while Vladimir Guerrero and Torii Hunter remain sidelined. The postponed game will be made up as part of a doubleheader the next day with Sidney Ponson to start for the Royals in the first game and Bruce Chen in relief. The Angels, without key hitters, have rallied to a six of seven stretch, led by a bullpen with Joakim Soria converting six straight saves as Royals struggle with hitting and late-inning collapses.
