Nori Aoki Has Come Up with Two Fantastic Catches to Keep the Royals Tied with the Angels
By Jason Lisk
In both the sixth and the seventh innings, the Angels had runners on base with two outs when a ball was hit deep to right field. In the sixth, Lorenzo Cain–who had previously made a leaping catch at the wall on the first at-bat of the game–appeared to have it but missed, but Nori Aoki was sliding in right behind him and came up with the inning ending catch.
In the seventh, Aoki again went back to the wall, found the ball, and made a basket catch on the warning track to keep Kansas City still in the game.
Two home runs for the Angels, two runs manufactured by Kansas City, and another close playoff contest.
