Overview

  • Zach Neto launched two homers, including a leadoff shot on Yamamoto’s first pitch, and reached base five times
  • Yoshinobu Yamamoto yielded a career-high six earned runs and five walks in 4⅔ innings, marking one of his worst MLB starts
  • Shohei Ohtani homered for a third consecutive game (his 42nd of the season) and ignited an eighth-inning rally that fell short
  • Angels right fielder Gustavo Campero exited with an injury after chasing a fly ball and was carted off the field
  • A Padres win in San Francisco combined with Monday’s loss trimmed the Dodgers’ NL West advantage to a single game
