The Angels now hold an 8-5 record, while the Astros improved to 6-7. Despite their efforts, the Angels were unable to overcome the Astros' offensive surge.

Angels Struggle to Find Rhythm

The Angels had difficulty finding their rhythm throughout the game. Their offense managed only 7 hits and scored in just three innings. A notable moment came in the fourth inning when Mike Trout hit a single that contributed to one of their three runs. However, errors plagued their performance as they committed two fielding mistakes, which allowed additional opportunities for Houston.

Jorge Soler was one of few bright spots for Los Angeles with his consistent performance at bat, maintaining an average of .333 from previous games and contributing an RBI during this match-up. Meanwhile, Jo Adell also added another RBI but struggled defensively with a fielding percentage of .667.

On pitching duties, Garrett McDaniels started strong but eventually faltered under pressure from Houston's lineup. His ERA stood at 27 after allowing multiple hits without recording any strikeouts—a stark contrast compared to Ian Anderson's previous showing where he maintained an ERA of 13.5 and struck out nine batters per nine innings pitched.
