00:01Guys, it's baseball. It's the Angels and the Dodgers. I love it.
00:04Well, there's a lot more energy for sure.
00:06I mean, when the Dodgers came to town, it really was a playoff-type atmosphere.
00:09And being an Angel player, I mean, you always felt like you had something to prove.
00:13I mean, you're going against the history and tradition of the Dodgers.
00:16Jose Soriano will be the first to greet the Dodgers here this evening.
00:20Yeah, I mean, it's so important for him to get in a good role. His stuff is electric.
00:23Back in a familiar place, it's Shohei Otani with 99 home runs as an Angel here at Angel Stadium.
00:31Would give him 100 in this ballpark.
00:33Bouncing ball to the right side. Handled by Luis Renjifo.
00:37Pairs out Shohei.
00:39On the ground, left side and through. Base hit for Betts.
00:43Make it a six-game hitting streak for Mookie.
00:45Now, Will Smith looking to get back in the groove again.
00:48Still leading all hitters in the National League with a 3-10 average.
00:51A liner right at Renjifo. Boy, he was played perfectly.
00:55We mentioned not too far from second. That ball came right to him.
00:58He didn't even have to move an inch.
00:5923rd start of 2025 for Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
01:03Coming off and outing 5-2.
01:05They're scoreless against the Rays.
01:07It's Zack Neto at short leading off.
01:10And Zack Neto trying to deposit one out toward right center.
01:13It's deep. It's called back. And it's gone!
01:17So Zack Neto starts off the freeway series with a bang.
01:22And it's 1-0.
01:23Another first inning blast.
01:26Another first pitch blast against an elite pitcher.
01:30We saw him do it against Skubal a month ago.
01:33That one about 106 off the bat.
01:354-0-2 distance.
01:37Magneto with a magnificent swing to start it.
01:40Back-to-back one-out walks.
01:42The Angels have had three of their first four reach base safely against Yamamoto.
01:48And now we'll see what Moncada can do.
01:50He comes in hitting just .217.
01:53But he's given up at least two here in the first.
01:57Trout heads home on that base hit by Moncada.
01:59And the Angels roughing up Yamamoto early.
02:02Boy, that was a quick swing by Moncada.
02:04And he lined that one in the right field.
02:09That was 107 off the bat.
02:13Curveball.
02:14Middle.
02:15Down.
02:15Lines it.
02:16Bottom of the second.
02:17Bottom of the order for the Angels.
02:21Yamamoto sits him down with a fastball at 95.
02:25And the pitch.
02:263-2 right there.
02:27Called strike three.
02:28Fastball right down the middle at 97.
02:31Neto is aboard with two outs.
02:33The 0-1 now to Shawna.
02:34Well, there goes the runner.
02:35Yamamoto steps up.
02:36He throws to second.
02:37And they got him.
02:39Neto took off before any move from Yamamoto.
02:43Yamamoto looked at first.
02:44Didn't see him.
02:45Threw to second.
02:46Got him in plenty of time.
02:47And back to the top of the order.
02:49Shohei Otani.
02:50For Otani, this is the second series in Anaheim as a visitor.
02:54And there's a swing and a miss.
02:56Struck him out.
02:58Otani has been striking out some this season.
03:01Tied for second in the National League and striking out.
03:04And he goes down to wrap up the inning.
03:07Well, the fourth inning has been a huge problem for Jose Soriano.
03:10The backup has ticked way up.
03:12The ground ball is way down.
03:14Swing and a miss.
03:14Strike three.
03:15Up to 100 to blow away Freddie Freeman.
03:18The 0-1.
03:18It's all back to Benjamin.
03:19100-mile-an-hour gas.
03:21Doesn't happen often against Freddie Freeman.
03:24Arguably one of the best pure hitters in the game.
03:28Bouncing ball.
03:29Fourth inning.
03:30No problem.
03:31Jose Soriano puts up a zero.
03:33This was before the first pitch of the at-bat.
03:36Adele surprised that pitch timer violation was called.
03:42It's got to be at the eight-second mark.
03:44Adele saying he was in the box and looking at him.
03:46We didn't see the clock there with that one.
03:49A couple of strikeouts on Adele tonight.
03:53Adele's been thrown out of the game here.
03:54Is that about Dan Iasonia?
03:56The home plate umpire has ejected Joe Adele.
03:59We don't know if Joe said something to him.
04:01That's a big loss for the Angels here.
04:04Adele was not happy with that pitch timer violation.
04:06Ends up striking out.
04:08And now he's been thrown out of this game.
04:10Sends the Angels outfield plans into certainly a different plan than intended.
04:16You see Adele kind of barking back at Iasonia on his way to the dugout.
04:21One-two pitch strike three called right at the knees inside corner fastball.
04:27Sixth strikeout for Yamamoto.
04:30One away for Michael Conforto.
04:32He struck out swinging on the Soriano curve.
04:35Conforto lines it.
04:36Caught by a leaping Moncada.
04:38Nice play.
04:39Timing was perfect.
04:41Sinker.
04:41It was elevated.
04:43And speaking of elevated.
04:45Moncada showing some hops.
04:48Surrounded liking that play.
04:50He's like oh I didn't get that sinker down but my defense picked me up.
04:56And there's a wave and a miss.
04:58He struck him out on that knuckle curve.
05:01That pitch has been working.
05:02He's been using it with two strikes.
05:04And the inning is over.
05:08Check swing and a blooper.
05:09It's going to fall into right field.
05:11He goes the opposite way.
05:15There's a liner and a base hit for Neto.
05:18Teodosio is on his way to third.
05:20Conforto won't even throw it.
05:21That was a great read.
05:22Because of the way he has to field that baseball it's going to be a difficult one to turn pivot
05:27back and throw to third.
05:29Tremendous base running by Teodosio.
05:32And Shotwell is hit by a pitch.
05:34Which will load the bases but hit on the hand which is always a concern.
05:39Shotwell will stay in the game.
05:40Yamamoto has been off a bit with his control.
05:45He's walked for hit one.
05:48Here's Trout with the bases loaded.
05:50And an inside out swing and a base hit to right.
05:54Teodosio scores.
05:55Neto comes in.
05:56Mike Trout a two run single.
05:59The Angels are up four to nothing.
06:01What a clutch swing by Trouty on that one.
06:03A splitter.
06:05Then inside out gets the job done with two strikes.
06:10Itching motors looking up the score bar thinking.
06:13I think I made the good pitch.
06:15Trout.
06:15Little inside out.
06:17It's Marcada with an RBI back in the first inning.
06:20Pounce toward the middle.
06:21Freeland won't reach at a base hit.
06:23In comes Shotwell.
06:25Heading for third is Ward.
06:26The throw there too late.
06:28RBI for Marcada.
06:29His second tonight.
06:30Five nothing Halo.
06:31Asuna Marcada tonight.
06:35And this is chopped on the left side.
06:38Mookie Betts will throw to first on that one.
06:41And they will get Campero.
06:43But coming in and scoring there for the Angels will be Taylor Ward.
06:48And that on run now it's six to nothing.
06:51Yamamoto's going to go four and two thirds.
06:53Ninety nine pitches will be it.
06:55Good shape right now in this ball game.
06:56We get ready to head to the top of the sixth.
06:59Ground ball to second.
07:00Renifo has it.
07:01Throws to Neto for one.
07:03Over the first two.
07:04A double play.
07:04Mr. Double play on the mound.
07:07Here's Neto.
07:07He's been a tough out tonight.
07:10Single walking homer.
07:12There's a drive to left center.
07:13Back forward is Paez.
07:14Under the wall.
07:15It's gone.
07:16To the California Spectacular.
07:19Zack Neto rips his second homer tonight.
07:22What a magnificent game for Magneto.
07:25Seven nothing game.
07:26A football score.
07:27Yeah.
07:27The extra point was kicked.
07:29Coach Harbaugh is happy about that extra point being kicked.
07:31Muncie, Paez, and Conforto around the bases.
07:35The rookie Alex Freeland steps to the plate.
07:38Bounce back to the mound.
07:40Garcia throws it home.
07:41Donnell the first double play.
07:43Wow.
07:44The old favorite one.
07:45One, two, three.
07:47The Dodger bats have been stifled.
07:50Been silent.
07:52High and deep to right field.
07:55Back at the wall.
07:56Compero watches it fly.
07:59Shohei Ohtani's 100th career home run in the Big A.
08:04His 42nd of the season.
08:06He has gone deep in three straight games.
08:09And that spoils the shutout bit for the Angels.
08:12Andrews on the corners with two gone.
08:147-1 the score.
08:15Two on, two out.
08:16Muncie coming up.
08:18Muncie hits it in the air.
08:20Right field toward the corner.
08:21It is gone!
08:24Max Muncie with a shot into the right field corner
08:28and a shot of life into this ball game.
08:30A three-run blast makes it 7-4.
08:33Campero the right fielder who went after it.
08:35Looks like he's injured himself.
08:37Fortunate scene here for the Angels and for Gustavo Campero.
08:41Henley Jansen 468 career saves.
08:45All that far behind Lee Smith now for the third most in baseball history.
08:50Popped up.
08:51Shallow right.
08:52Moore goes out.
08:53Renifo is in.
08:54And it's Moore to make the catch.
08:56Say goodnight to the Dodgers.
08:58The Angels have won the freeway series for the first time since 2019.
09:02They beat down the Dodgers tonight 7-4.
09:06If we're going to be what he has won.
09:06The Aaaahearaathy.
