Overview
- The Dodgers scored nine runs in the bottom of the first inning to take a 9-1 lead after the top of the second in the game at Dodger Stadium.
- Andy Pages opened the rally with a two-run homer into the bullpen and Shohei Ohtani recorded multiple hits including a two-run homer that capped the outburst.
- Angels starter Jack Kochanowicz surrendered a string of singles that loaded the bases and reliever Brent Suter was unable to stop the rally.
- An errant throw on an attempted double play by Angels shortstop Zach Neto allowed three additional runs to score and extended the inning.
- The game included visible moments outside the box score such as Myles Garrett throwing the ceremonial first pitch and Blake Treinen catching Pages’s homer in the bullpen, and the nine-run frame drastically shifted the night’s trajectory for both teams.
