The Angels beat the Chicago White Sox, 12-3, this afternoon, and it might be a weird coincidence but both times I’ve covered games this year the team has lost by nine.
Sorry, guys.
In all seriousness, the Angels showed off their offensive power, jumping out to an early lead that set the pace for the rest of the game.
Remember how I was just saying that facing Shohei Ohtani as the first batter of the game would be pretty difficult? Well, Vince Velasquez started off the game with a curveball, and Ohtani wasted no time hitting a solo home run to give the Angels a 1-0 lead.
