Clayton Kershaw was on the hill for the Dodgers, and that’s usually a pretty good recipe for a win. He fell behind in the second, which was led off by an Albert Pujols single. Kershaw balked Pujols over to second, his second consecutive game with a balk. That balk ended up being big, as two more singles ended up scoring Pujols. Pujols isn’t exactly known for his wheels, so he likely goes station-to-station on those singles and ends up at third. Obviously can’t assume everything else happens exactly the same way, but either way the Angels struck first.
