Los Angeles Dodgers vs Los Angeles Angels inning 1-2 Game Highlights MLB 3/24/2025-MLB Season 2025.

While his brother has the most wins in Dallas Baptist history, he has the most strikeouts and he already struck out Otani tonight. Having more experience this year than it did last year. Well, he says in no way does that lessen the burden of a big Lloyd teaching all the young players last year. He feels he has more around him this year to help the cause as those guys now have had more experience around the team. We've talked about Kenley Jansen, we've talked about Darno, Kyle Hendricks in the starting rotation, and Edmund Battling. This has been an eight pitch at bat so far. I mean, both batters have seen some pitches. When you're around the strike zone, you know that reputation. So, eventually he's going to have to maybe move a guy off the plate a little bit and open that outside part of the plate. You'll see some different hitters, that's for sure. And you wonder if he'd try that. He has that chance of a changeup right now if you're comfortable. He takes strike three, Cole. It was a cutter again. A cutter right on the outside corner again, frozen. By the way, that's a 91 mile an hour cut. Well, neither of the Dodger fans in terms of their respect for Freddie Freeman. He gets a big hand here as he takes. And Freddie Freeman is now an all-time Dodger legend, just like Kirk Gibson. Grew up in Orange County, big Garrett Anderson fan. You know, there's a lot of similarities there. He grabbed himself a jersey, Mike. Sub on the way out there to left center field. That's 390 where he hit that one off glass. Now, when you want to see that swing for Taylor Ward, he can be that difference. Make you keep him on the field with his swing and his confidence. And a good start for the Angels tonight. I'm sure Tim Buss is working day and night. Can't wait for that one. Feel like you're going to hit some home runs in that fan box over there on the south side. I don't even care how cold it is. The batter against Glass now. And it's one ball, one strike. Getting black to Glass now has helped. Those 17 starts, and that was the first time he's ever done. So, I mean, the stuff is there. It is keeping him on. I mean, he works out so much. So, it's not something he's not throw as hard as he does. It's tough to do that. One ball, two strikes on Shonowell here. And that runs that fastball under half. We talk about that swing path that he has, Taylor Ward. When he's in that groove, it is to be able to lift that 105.6 off the bat. Looks like one of those Ben Joyce fastballs. That was a Glass now fastball. Tyler Glass now today to be successful. Right away, you saw that. You got to jump on that four-seamer. Last year, he gave up 10 home runs versus four-seamer. Three strikeouts. It's an 0-98 batting average versus his curveball. Outstanding spin on all his pitches, especially when you look at his curve. Trout coming off a season last year where he didn't play after the beginning of May. But he hit 10 home runs. And the Angels hoping that he's out there for the large majority of the games this year. Now playing in right field. Way, way back. And they would Bob Walk. He met a hard high school. Way back in time. Todd Zeal went there. Back home. He signed a long-term deal last year. Rodgers tacked on four years to the deal. Or the other way, a base hit. Cut off by Teoscar Hernandez. Love that swing, Lane. I love that swing right there. It's all right down on the ball. Stay on to hit the ball on the line that way. That's a pretty good pitch. Look where his head positioned like that. I mean, that's a perfect pitch, you would think. Not against Trout. Anything down against Trout is never a good pitch. The beef behind Trout this year. Hitting in that cleanup spot is the designated hitter. Just a ton of power. From the time he came out of Cuba. He was 20 years old or whatever in the Midwest League. And he was as big as he is now. He is so strong. I have my room out at the Buttes Hotel. Gotta be careful at the Buttes. Yes. Two ball. Close to it. Two balls and a strike on Soler with Trout aboard. Opponents only hit 190 against Glasnow last year. But with two strikes, they hit 105. But even more so against Glasnow. When you get to two strikes, as Soler lays off there. Three and two, the count. Average spin rate on this curveball is 27.48. That is unbelievable. Average spin on it. When you hear us talk about that spin. That means it's a late break at the plate. Centerfield. He won a gold glove at second base in 2021. But he's played second base, shortstop, right field, centerfield, third base. All-around defensive player. Gaffordo Hernandez flanking him in the outfield. Here's Tim Anderson who's had a nice day. Ron Washington is looking for. Tim Anderson has checked off all the boxes. For a guy who's really had a couple of days. He said he was able to refocus. And he just wants to finish his story at the major league level in a different way. And it looks like he'll have an opportunity to get some of that as an angel. And it's still amazing. Every time you watch the defense, defenders, you feel especially that right field on the ground there between first and second. Anderson. Intending not to be drawing walks out there. Tim Anderson's looking to punch the ball somewhere. I played with a guy, Willie Wilson, that same way. I'm going to swing the bat. Welcome back to Angels Stadium. The Halos getting closer to finalizing their roster. Fifth spot in their rotation. Reed Detmers will open the season in the Angels bullpen. Kohanowitz told us today he was Harry Manassian. He was so happy. They gave, he gave both of them two hugs each. They told him you're in the spot. Don't change anything about rotation. But he's honestly really looking forward to this new opportunity. Said it could be a good thing. Switch things up for a little bit. They told him they see him as a happy meeting. And he's really excited for the season. Good news for both of them. Very well deserved spots. Yeah, I love the fact that Ron Washington is back to that winning mentality. Nobody uses five starters in a full 162 game season. You use eight notches. He's looked incredibly well. He didn't pitch himself out of the rotation. As Kohanowitz has pitched himself in there. He's throwing the ball so well. He says it's what the Angels are hoping to have with more depth this year. Teoscar Hernandez floats one out toward left. Hit pretty hard. It is. As that slider had a lot of the plate. And the Dodgers get the run right back here at the top of the second. Yeah, it didn't get quite Hernandez. When you look at the divers last year. Obviously with Shohei and Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman. He was probably. He was a big contributor to that World Series Championship Club. And the sliders. He had a couple of similar pitches going through. It's not enough bite on either of the last two sliders. Now here in the top of the second. Well, the number five rotation spot came down to these two. And both have to be satisfied working right. I love the fact that he has 17 strikeouts. His four walks in a whip of 1.09. Really, really a big strikeout guy. But he's around his own and gets a ton of ground balls. Here is Kike Hernandez playing second base tonight. Brian Johnson makes this team out of spring training as well. Well, you take the best people you have and go to the. You feel are one of the best pitchers or players you have. You stack the roster that way. Take the best of the best. That's a great adjustment on that. Talk to him right away. Got the next batter out. Made a good quality pitch after that. You saw that slider. He gave up the home run to Hernandez. He had an even better one piece to wipe out Kike Hernandez. If he had thrown that to Teoscar Hernandez, he would have had another strike. Exactly. But that's the thing you want to see. Well, that's a great adjustment. Back to back nasty ones. Fifty one percent swing and miss rate on that slider. He's a professional baseball. But maybe it's not to him. He hasn't even been in professional baseball. And you see they're up there on play. Three straight at bats in the first pitch. Pretty appeasing to home run on the first pitch. Yesterday, ground ball out. This time it is. Conforto fouls one off and it's 0-2. Here's a note from Blake who will be with us here in the booth. Giving us stats for start last year. So you really want that number to be around eight to ten. Twelve at most. Eighteen angels. Yeah, and they probably will again this year. But they're built for it. You know, they have May back and Gonsolin's around point two. So they're built for that. They know what it takes to get through and win it all. Piece it together in October, especially with two starters. And on top of that, Buehler was someone they were trying. 24 World Series. It was a bumpy road for Buehler to get there. And he used 17 balls and two strikes on Michael Conforto. He was new to the Dodgers this year. But not new to the National League West. He was with a regime change. Buster Posey's running baseball operations. And Perry Manassian's little brother's the GM. That is. That's amazing. First time in major league history that a set of brothers have been general managers for different fathers. Zach Amiz and their grandfather. I mean, they've been around the game. They know the ins and outs of the game. So they fit in very well as a ball player. Conforto fouls off another. Seen a lot of foul balls here. Done 36 pitches. He's around his own. So you're going to have that. I think going forward. There's something off speed me. Makes that fastball and even slider better. We'll count on Conforto with Muncie at first. One out. His count gets up there pretty high now for. Ryan Johnson. We're expecting to see him for two innings. Three at better there than outside part of the plate. You're a pitcher and you're seeing a lot of foul balls hit against you. Does that bring your best strike zone a little too much? Because the hitters are comfortable looking out over the plate. But also I feel that everything's a little bit hard. That means I get a photo takes ball for that was a cutter backdoor one. He struck out Ohtani and Edmond with that pit. The difference between two tall pitchers here and glass now bringing that front leg. Look how high has that front leg in that drive towards the plate and it's like completely different. Yet you're seeing similar as far as velocity on fastballs. Glass now gets more extension. Basically this will be a 20 pitch inning at least for Johnson as he deals to Miguel Rojas. With on the cutter that time extension he has. That means that baseball is only that much quicker. That's why even when Jerry Weaver was losing some of his velocity on his fastball didn't matter. He was equivalent to 90. This one headed for the gap. A good jump though as Mickey Moniak is able to get in position and make the cat off the bat. And that's good route he took on that one to be able to cut that angle off. Here's Mickey getting it up as the shift for Trout happens with him moving to right field. We saw it come into play last night for both Adele and Moniak there in center field cover a lot of ground. He's brought back quite a few home runs would be home runs in his current Halo uniform center. That guy's pretty comfortable in right field right now which is a good thing. I don't think it's going to be much of a story as on that. Though as we know starting Thursday sequences matter a little bit more. The decision make Michael Austin Barnes longest in here the Dodger position player as he takes ball to this guy's backup quarterbacks. They just always had a job. He will coach like Diego's his uncle. Cycled in the backup catcher. I know Clayton Kershaw the ball. It's been an injury plagued few years for Kershaw a lot of miles on his arm early in his career throughout his 20s Kershaw's first ballot Hall of Famer without question. It's a fun one right here now for Ryan John. You're going to go after him with a strike right here now. It's three and two on Austin Barnes show he's on deck. Incredible. You're a man of many decades I feel. Boy you're bad. You can look at it either way. Yes quite a few decades. Here's Travis Darnell as he takes ball one from Tyler Glass to go a handful of years back and it was the Rays and the Dodgers who quickly signed Darnell and they recycled him Eric Young senior and the guys who are all here now with the Angels and Darnell's because it's about his career too. I mean he's not known necessarily for his bat but he has had some big at bats big home runs and hits during his career still can take care of himself half the plate one out of the inning celebrate mom at Angel Stadium this Mother's Day first twenty five mom wants courtesy of SoCal Gas visit angels dot com slash promotions for more info. All right I don't have to go to store now I'm all set. Mother's Day made about yourself. Incredible. Ready for it. Three hundred two years ago that wiped him out at the end of the season and last year basically didn't play at all in the second half. So good early on in his career with the Angels this side of the plate and he did a lot of damage. It's a chop two outs there's Garrett McDaniels we'll see him it looks like in the top of the third where you thought a little variation in the speed to some of his pitches around the strike zone a lot but that cutter and slider combo good fastball by four punch out five guy really impressed everybody from the first day he took the mound he's got a power sinker from an angle where you don't think of sinkers look at chance he's going to be on the team also two outs in the inning as Mickey Moniak stands in Moniak got it going a little bit in the sea of power there for Moniak. And as we mentioned he will be sharing center field this year with Joe Adele balls and two strikes. I don't think it'll be any sort of strict platoon Bell in the eye. You also look at what kind of repertoire those pitchers have if they rely a lot more on certain pitches and you look at the data he won something that that you look historically for the Angels that's been you know a pencil in there for a long long time. Ed and Torrey Hunter and then you had Mike drop there for a long long time. So that hasn't been a concern this year with the platoon situation a ball two strikes on Mickey Moniak.
