This game was as bad for our beloved Mets as the opening game of the series in Anaheim was good for them, as they fell to the Angels 11-6, though the game was not as close as the score suggests.
The story of the game came down to three players, really. Mike Trout, who returned from brief reprieve due to a groin injury, went 3-4 with two home runs and three RBI, and looked like his normal self. Shohei Ohtani also went 3-4 with a home run with three RBI of his own, and, the player of the game, Jared Walsh, went 4-5, drove in three as well, and hit for the cycle.
