The Dodgers’ four-game winning streak was snapped on a sweltering hot night in Orange County. The official game time temperature was a record 108°F at Angel Stadium.
Even though the temperatures were high, the offense was lukewarm. Kenta Maeda and Felix Peña both kept the opposing bats at bay in a close one-run contest between the two So Cal teams, but the Angels came back in the bottom of the ninth against Kenley Jansen to walk-off with the 3-2 Freeway Series opener victory.
Maeda, who didn’t allow a run until he ran into a shaky sixth-inning, welcomed his second child earlier Friday.
