Angels' C.J. Cron: Stays hot with homer Monday
Cron went 3-for-4 with a double, a homer, two runs and two RBI in Monday's 9-2 win over the Reds.
Analysis:
Cron was one of four Angels to leave the yard against Reds starter Dan Straily. The 26-year-old has strung together consecutive three-hit games, and is beginning to solidify himself as the clean-up hitter in Los Angeles. That's a valuable role with Mike Trout and Albert Pujols occupying the two preceding lineup spots.
