He was charged with a blown save when he allowed two unearned runs in 2\u2153 innings in a 11-9 loss on June 4 last season at Boston. &#8230; The Angels could be without starting catcher Logan O\u2019Hoppe for the contest. O\u2019Hoppe, who has battled concussion issues in the past, left Friday\u2019s game dazed in the third inning after taking a foul tip off his mask. He still was being evaluated after the game. \u201cI think this may have been the third one in three or four days,\u201d Los Angeles manager Kurt Suzuki, a longtime big league catcher, said of the foul ball off the mask. \u201cDefinitely not ideal.
