ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Tyler Skaggs will pitch at Angel Stadium for the first time in two years Sunday when the Los Angeles Angels and the Boston Red Sox conclude their three-game series.The left-hander, who turned 25 on July 13, returned to major-league action Tuesday night in Kansas City after spending the past two years recuperating from Tommy John surgery. In his start against the Royals, Skaggs conceded just three hits and one walk in seven shutout innings while collecting five strikeouts in the Angels 13-0 romp. Skaggs threw 63 of his 88 pitches for strikes.It went a lot better than I expected, to say the least, Skaggs told MLB.com afterward. Everything just felt really fast in that first at-bat and after that, it started to slow down. It was a fun game for me.The left-hander last pitched in Anaheim on July 25, 2014, when he struck out five in 5 2/3 innings while allowing runs on five hits and a walk against the Detroit Tigers. In his next start six days later, Skaggs amassed seven strikeouts and issued no walks during 4 2/3 no-hit innings in Baltimore but left after throwing 72 pitches. Skaggs underwent ligament-transfer surgery 13 days later.Skaggs began this season with Triple-A Salt Lake but after his first three starts, biceps tendinitis kept him from pitching for two months. Skaggs returned to minor-league action June 22 with a rehabilitation assignment with the Angels rookie-league team in Arizona before returning to Salt Lake on July 2.In his final two minor-league starts, Skaggs held opponents to just two hits and three walks in 12 2/3 shutout innings while accumulating 26 strikeouts. Fourteen came against Triple-A Omaha to tie the Bees team record set by Jered Weaver.The left-hander will play a pivotal role in the starting rotation for the rest of this season and well into the next, at least. Injuries stripped the Angels of starters Garrett Richards, Andrew Heaney, C.J. Wilson and Nick Tropeano. Heaney already had Tommy John surgery but Tropeano and Richards seek to avoid it.We have great expectations for him, manager Mike Scioscia told MLB.com in reference to Skaggs. Hes an important part of what were trying to do. We expected to have him maybe a little bit earlier. But hes ready now, and were happy to have him.Opposing Skaggs will be 31-year-old knuckleballer Steven Wright, who is having the best season of his career. The right-hander, an American League All-Star for the first time, already has career bests in victories (12), complete games (3), starts (20), strikeouts (109) and innings (132 2/3).Wright anticipated being one of the bullpens spare parts before left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez suffered a knee injury that forced a quick change in plans.I was going to be a long guy, spot starter, the knuckleball specialist told the Boston Globe. I knew my role in spring training. They made it clear. Thats what I prepared for. I knew there was a chance Id get starts. I didnt think Id be in the rotation. Unfortunately, Eddie got hurt but it opened up a door for me.But Wright had perhaps his worst start of the season in his last appearance Tuesday night against the Tigers in Fenway Park. The right-hander allowed eight earned runs on nine hits and three walks in 4 2/3 innings yet received no decision in Bostons 9-8 defeat. Before that game, Wright won his previous four starts.This is a tough loss for me because I feel like if you can get eight runs, you should get the team a win, Wright told MLB.com afterward. You cant keep asking the offense to score eight, nine runs every night. Thats tough to do for any team. http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-Bradley-Roby-Jersey/ . However, he did make them miss him a little less. Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1. http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-Paxton-Lynch-Jersey/ . Hamelin, who triumphed in the 500 on Saturday, edged out Victor An of Russia by 0.021 seconds to maintain his lead in the World Cup standings. Russias Vladimir Grigorev was third. In the relay, Canada took control six laps from the finish line to beat Russia and the Netherlands. http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-Jamaal-Charles-Jersey/ . "Jeff is a hard worker who was an important special-teams contributor for us last season," said Stamps GM John Hufnagel. http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-Darian-Stewart-Jersey/ . -- Stanford squashed Oregons national championship hopes again, schooling the Ducks in power football. http://www.broncosrookiestore.com/Broncos-John-Elway-Jersey/ . Halifax beat the Saint John Sea Dogs 7-5 on the strength of two goals apiece from Nikolaj Ehlers, Matt Murphy and Brent Andrews. Jonathan Drouin also scored and had three assists while Zachary Fucale made 17 saves for the Mooseheads (16-8-0), who led 6-1 after two periods. Daniil Kvyat says his duel with Red Bulls Max Verstappen during Sundays Singapore Grand Prix has boosted his confidence and left him feeling pretty good.The Russian scored his first points since Julys British Grand Prix thanks to a ninth place finish in Singapore, after an intense wheel-to-wheel battle with Verstappen -- who took Kvyats seat at Red Bull ahead of the Spanish Grand Prix. Kvyat defended firmly against Verstappen and successfully kept the Ducthman behind on a couple of occasions, before Vertsappen eventually got by with a lunge at Turn 20 at a later stage of the race.Kvyat has cut a dejected figure in recent races after a difficult spell following his demotion back to Toro Rosso, but says his performance in Singapore has re-instilled his self-belief and passion for racing in Formula One.I was fighting and I think I did a good job. Its good you know -- he had the faster car, but I kept him behind for two stints, which makes me think Im pretty good! The racing over this past month has been a big test of my passion but Im loving it again so thats mega. I pushed to the very laast centimetre and left myself on the track.ddddddddddddIt was a very enjoyable race -- not that enjoyable behind Perez at the end as we didnt have the straight-line speed to overtake. I was pushing but without any gains. It was a shame but Im very happy overall.The Marina Bay Street Circuit was predicted to be Toro Rossos best chance of a points finish out of the remaining races of 2016 and although Kvyat believes the team could have profited even more from a riskier strategy, he remains positive heading to Malaysia in a fortnights time.We knew we could do a very good race here so we were pushing very hard and it was very enjoyable. It was shame we didnt risk enough with the strategy but thats the only complaint I have about it.There are more straights, which are a pain for us, so well try and take the most out of it and I believe we can still do a good job because I believe in us. I feel I have my confidence back and with that I feel we can do good things.
