This week’s return trip to Arlington drudged up emotions the Angels players had suppressed as they engrossed themselves in their daily routine.

Angels rookie Griffin Canning turned in one of his best starts of the season, getting through the Chicago White Sox batting order three times in a 9-2 win.

Mike Trout, who took a visible leadership role in the days after Skaggs’ death, said it was jarring to be back. Not even knowing the Rangers will play in a new stadium next year helps. “Every time we come back here, it’s always gonna bring up the memories,” Trout said. “This city brings up bad memories because this is where he passed.”Said Kole Calhoun: “It’s definitely a little different. Takes you back to an empty feeling.”

Time has not lessened the blow the Angels were dealt when Skaggs was found unresponsive in his Southlake, Texas, hotel room last month. Skaggs is never far from anyone’s mind. Ausmus, for instance, was reminded of his pitcher as he watched the pregame video montage at Angel Stadium.“The last homestand before Tyler passed away, he was verbatim doing the color call that goes with the video,” Ausmus said. “That video came on and it just reminded me of the last time we were home with Tyler.
