Padres' Blake Snell: Unfortunate loser Tuesday

Snell (7-6) was tagged with the loss Tuesday against the Angels despite tossing seven innings of two-run ball, allowing one hit and two walks while striking out 11.

Snell had an excellent outing and tossed 70 of his 100 pitches for strikes while posting double-digit strikeouts for the third straight start. However, he was the victim of poor run support since the Padres only mustered four hits throughout the entire game. It's worth noting that Snell has tossed at least seven frames while allowing two or fewer runs in each of his last three starts, a span in which he's also posted an excellent 31:4 K:BB across 21.2 innings.
