CLEVELAND -- The Los Angeles Angels disappointing season reached a new low on a soggy Thursday night. Christian Miller Youth Jersey .Jhoulys Chacin, making his first start since July 1, allowed seven runs in 1 1/3 innings as the Cleveland Indians beat the Angels 14-4.The loss was the Angels seventh straight and equaled their longest losing streak since April 30-May 6, 2010.Mike Trout and Cliff Pennington hit solo homers for Los Angeles, which is last in the American League West.We didnt give ourselves a chance tonight, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. I think Jhoulys was behind in every count, and he just could not get his ball into good position consistently.Nobody is taking this in stride, but going through the process is important.Los Angeles took a 1-0 lead in the first on Trouts team-high 22nd homer, but trailed 14-3 after the fifth. Jett Bandy added a sacrifice fly in the ninth.The game was delayed twice by rain for a total of 1 hour, 10 minutes.Chacin (3-8), taking over for Tim Lincecum in the rotation, posted the shortest start of his eight-year career. The right-hander gave up six hits, including a leadoff homer to Carlos Santana, and three walks.Its really disappointing, knowing that I couldnt go far in the game, Chacin said. My teammates were out there playing their hardest, but Im waiting in the clubhouse for four hours because I was out so quickly. Being down 11 runs in the fifth was real tough.Left fielder Ji-Man Choi didnt help Chacins cause, misplaying a line drive by Lonnie Chisenhall in the first inning that was scored as a three-run double.In the sixth, Angels first baseman Geovany Soto had a foul popup by Roberto Perez bounce off his glove and strike second baseman Johnny Giavotella on the mouth.Los Angeles used all 13 of its position players, along with six pitchers, in falling to 0-6 on its nine-game road trip.At times, weve swung the bats well, and at times, weve pitched well, Scioscia said. We just havent been able to combine the two on the same night, especially lately.Left-hander Brett Oberholtzer, who was claimed off waivers from Philadelphia, surrendered six runs over 1 2/3 innings in his Angels debut.Indians right-hander Corey Kluber (12-8) gave up three runs in six innings, while first baseman Mike Napoli went 4 for 4 with a homer and four RBI.Napoli is batting .338 (68 for 201) with 19 home runs and 43 RBI against Los Angeles, which traded him to Toronto in 2011.We havent matched up well against him, Scioscia said sternly. But were not going to go back (to discuss when he was with us).THE NEW GUYOberholtzer became the 50th player on the Angels roster this season. He broke into the majors as a starter with the Astros, but worked exclusively out of the bullpen with the Phillies. Hes got length in him, so well use that and see how it goes, Scioscia said.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: 1B C.J. Cron (left hand fracture), who has been on the DL since July 9, has begun tracking live pitching. He is expected to begin a rehab assignment next week.Indians: RHP Jeff Manship (right wrist tendinitis) was activated from the 15-day DL. LHP T.J. House was optioned to Triple-A Columbus to make room on the 25-man roster.UP NEXTAngels: LHP Tyler Skaggs had a career-best 18 2/3-inning scoreless streak snapped in his last start on Aug. 6 at Seattle.Indians: RHP Carlos Carrasco is 1-0 with one save and a 1.36 ERA in seven career appearances against the Angels. Donte Jackson Panthers Jersey . -- Matt Rupert scored once in regulation and again in the shootout as the London Knights extended their win streak to nine games by defeating the Owen Sound Attack 4-3 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action. Luke Kuechly Youth Jersey ., for the next three years with the signings on Monday of Daryl Townsend and Michael Carter. http://www.thepanthersofficialstore.com/authentic-jordan-scarlett-panthers-jersey/ . NBA officials ruled the court unplayable in the Bucks final exhibition game on Oct. 25 because players were slipping, and the game was cancelled midway through the first period. ST. LOUIS -- Coach Ken Hitchcock criticized the St. Louis Blues effort and focus in a 4-1 loss to Calgary on Tuesday night.If they dont improve both of those areas in a hurry, the results in Thursday nights home game against the Detroit Red Wings might not be much better.The Red Wings are coming into the game as one of the hottest teams in the NHL, having won five consecutive contests after losing their first two to start the season.Detroits most recent win came on Tuesday night at home, a 4-2 victory over Carolina that included the first two goals of the season from center Dylan Larkin.We have to keep going and we cant take the foot of the gas, Larkin told the Detroit News. We have a big test on the road in St. Louis, a good team, especially at home. We have to do the right things that have made us successful in the last five games.Hitchcock also will be looking for his team to do the right things, the parts of the game they didnt do well in the loss to the Flames.We didnt manage it (the puck) very well, Hitchcock said. We played sideways when we should have played with speed and gone north, and we played light on the boards when we could have really won some puck battles and played with a higher level of determination.St. Louis captain Alex Pietrangelo, said it will be up to the players to correct those mistakes if they want to a different outcome against the Redd Wings. Will Grier Youth Jersey. The games when you dont seem to have it mentally, you have to find a way to win, he said.The Blues could get Jori Lehtera back in the lineup for Thursdays game, but instead of playing center, Hitchcock said there was a chance he could move to left wing and play on a line with Jaden Schwartz at center and Vladimir Tarasenko on right wing.Lehtera has missed the last four games while being treated for an apparent concussion.Left winger Justin Abdelkader could return for the Red Wings after missing the last two games because of a lower-body injury. Returning to St. Louis as a new member of the Red Wings will be center Steve Ott, who spent the last three years with the Blues before signing as a free agent in Detroit.One of the keys to the Red Wings recent success has been the ability to close out games, something they had trouble doing last season.Thats the biggest difference, coach Jeff Blashill told NHL.com. Weve done that so far this season. Weve done a good job of being able to score that extra goal if weve needed it. As Ive talked about, we were actually good defensively in the third period last year but we still gave up lots of leads because youre constantly playing with just a one-goal lead so its a big difference.
