Angels Start Strong With a Little Help from Rangers
What a game for us Angels fans!
The Los Angeles Angels took on the Texas Rangers and pulled off an impressive 8-5 victory. The excitement began in the bottom of the 1st inning when Zach Neto got hit by a pitch, stole second, and eventually, Jo Adell brought him home after a wild throwing error by Adolis García allowed both Neto and Nolan Schanuel to score. We took an early 2-0 lead! 
Mid-Game Twists and Turns
The Rangers bounced back a bit in the 4th inning when Kyle Higashioka homered, but our team wasn't done. Jo Adell, ever the showman, tripled in the bottom of the 4th and eventually crossed home plate thanks to a fielder's choice by Gustavo Campero, putting us at 3-1. Yet, the Rangers rallied in the 6th to briefly take the lead 4-3, but our Angels never lost their spirit!
In the bottom of the 6th, Campero hit a crucial double that drove in Jo Adell and tied the game. Then, Yoan Moncada stepped up with a pinch-hit single that drove in two more runs, putting us ahead 6-4, and with a clutch double by Zach Neto, we extended our lead to 7-4. What an inning!
Closing It Out in Style
In the 8th inning, Gustavo Campero added another to our tally with a bold walk and a steal, scoring on Nolan Schanuel's sacrifice fly; this was crucial as it increased our lead to 8-5 following a second homer from Higashioka earlier that inning. Our bullpen, particularly Jansen, sealed the game smoothly in the 9th, freezing Semien's hot bat and ensuring García's last fly out was just a routine catch.
Tonight was definitely a game to remember, and credit goes all around. From the grit of Zach Neto and Jo Adell to the clutch bats of Gustavo Campero and Yoan Moncada, this team showed heart and resilience
. Way to go, Halos! Let's keep it rolling!
