Fourth Inning

The fourth inning proved pivotal for Cleveland as they extended their lead by adding three more runs. This surge was fueled by precise hitting and capitalizing on errors made by Los Angeles infielders. Despite these setbacks, Angels pitcher Jack Kochanowicz worked diligently but struggled with his control during this period.

Sixth Inning

As tensions rose in the sixth inning, Mike Trout provided a glimmer of hope for Los Angeles fans when he secured one of his team's few hits for this matchup. However, it wasn't enough to change their fortunes immediately as they remained scoreless heading into what would become an eventful seventh inning.
