Post Game SummaryStat Savant
atAngels at RangersThe Angels shut out the Rangers behind a first-inning burst that never got answered. Neto scored the go-ahead run after Trout's single to center, then backed it up with a 3-for-5 night at the plate. Angels piled up ten hits to the Rangers' one and took the season series 8-4. The two clubs meet again Sunday, with the Angels visiting Texas.
Trout singled to center in the first inning and Neto came around to score, and that was all the offense the Angels would need.
Neto led the way going 3-for-5 with two runs scored, and the Angels backed him up with ten hits to just one for the Rangers.
The win pushes the Angels to 52-78 while the Rangers slip to 64-66, and Los Angeles now leads the season series 8-4.

We ranked every clip from this game by how much it swung the win probability, kept the biggest, and play them back in the order they happened. Pick any play to jump straight to it.
Ranked by win probability added: how far each player's plays moved this game's odds, not how their box-score line reads. A single with the bases loaded in the ninth outranks a home run in a blowout, because that is what actually decided it.
