First Inning


The opening inning set the tone for what would be a difficult game for the ‘Stros. Despite managing to get one hit, they were unable to convert it into runs. The Halos also struggled initially but managed one hit without scoring.


Second Inning


In the second inning, both teams showed more aggression. However, it was the Angels who capitalized on their opportunities by scoring two runs off two hits. The Astros couldn't respond and ended their turn with no hits or runs.


Third Inning


The third inning proved pivotal as Los Angeles extended their lead significantly with four more runs from three hits. Houston's offense remained quiet during this period with no hits recorded.


Fourth Inning


Houston finally got on board in the fourth inning when they scored their lone run thanks to Christian Walker's contribution at bat. Meanwhile, Los Angeles added another run to maintain control over proceedings.


Fifth and Sixth Innings


Both teams experienced quieter innings during these periods; neither side managed any significant offensive breakthroughs in terms of scoring despite some attempts from both lineups.


Seventh Inning


In contrast to earlier innings where pitching dominated playtime dynamics between these squads - especially given how well each team’s bullpen performed overall - things changed dramatically here: LA scored twice again after securing just one hit while keeping pressure firmly applied onto visiting players throughout much action seen across field positions alike!


Eighth and Ninth Innings


As time wound down towards final moments within regulation play itself (with only limited chances left available), neither squad could muster additional points beyond those already tallied earlier rounds respectively; thus ensuring victory ultimately belonged solely unto hosts themselves following conclusion reached soon thereafter without further incident occurring whatsoever among participants involved therein altogether today...
