    Angels waste early opportunities and get blown out late in loss to Astros
    HOUSTON — By the time the Angels’ 11-2 loss to the Houston Astros on Sunday was over, it had become so lopsided that it was easy to forget how well Jaime Barria had pitched or how much a timely hit or two by the Angels early could have changed the game.
    Instead, it ended up as an embarrassing loss, the third straight against the Astros and sixth in seven games on this two-city trip through Texas.
    Barría held the Astros to two runs in 5-1/3 innings, but came out of the game tra
