Angels Thump White Sox 8-2 as Ureña Earns First MLB Win

The result snapped the Angels' month-long wait for a series win.

Overview

  • Los Angeles beat Chicago 8-2 on Wednesday in Anaheim, ending a series skid that stretched back to April 10-12.
  • A five-run second inning turned the game after a failed double-play transfer by shortstop Colson Montgomery, then Travis d'Arnaud launched his first homer of the year for three runs.
  • Rookie Walbert Ureña held the White Sox to two hits over six innings with five strikeouts for his first big-league win, trimming his ERA to 3.22.
  • White Sox rookie Noah Schultz gave up seven runs on seven hits in 3 2/3 innings after allowing six earned runs across his first four starts this season.
  • The Angels added cushion in the fourth when Jorge Soler and Jo Adell were hit with the bases loaded, providing two insurance runs.
