However, the Green and Gold responded robustly in their half of the inning by scoring 3 runs on 3 hits and taking advantage of two errors committed by the Halos.

Third Inning

In the third inning, both teams continued to press offensively but only managed to add runs through strategic plays rather than big hits. The Angels added another pair of runs thanks to consistent batting that kept pressure on Athletics’ pitchers.

Eighth and Ninth Innings
