Angels' Early Spark


The Angels started strong in front of their home crowd of 29,870 fans. In the first inning, they managed to score their only run of the game thanks to an early hit.

Zach Neto also made his presence felt with one hit in four attempts and showcased power potential with his slugging percentage reaching 1.0.
