The 42nd Home Run of Ohtani, History for Neto
The 42nd Home Run of Shohei Ohtani of the season was not enough to save the Los Angeles Dodgers a 7-4 MLB defeat against the Angels in Anaheim, marking a second consecutive setback for his team after their 5-4 defeat against the Blue Jays de Toronto.
Jose Soriano granted two strokes and recorded two bullet goals for the angels, withdrawing six thickness in six -sleeves aimlessly, while Zach Neto struck a circuit of the first launch of a difficult evening for the Yoshinobu Yamamoto launcher.
“I don’t think he had his best things this evening,” said Dodgers manager Dave Roberts about Yamamoto. “I don’t think he had his best command.
“From the start, they came out very aggressive, swinging the bats early. He simply couldn’t (answer).
“We did not have any answers to Soriano, a guy who puts the ball in the ground. I don’t think we had a guy in the second goal until he is out of the game, so we really did not threaten.”
Los Angeles Angels: Zach Neto Statistics
The 18th Home Run of the year of the Neto stop stop was his eighth advance of the season, establishing a new record of a season in a single season.
Neto broke the Brian Downing record, established in 1987, while Kyle Schwarber holds the season record in a single MLB season with the kind authorization of 15 for the Philadelphia Phillies last season.
The angels recovered from their 9-5 defeat against the Detroit Tigers and have now won two of their last three games.

Los Angeles Dodgers “do not do a job”
Roberts was encouraged by a return offer of Dodgers, including Home Runs for Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy.
“It was good to see us assembling a round … But a loss is a loss,” said Roberts. “You have to give credit to Soriano.
“These guys took an advance and did not look back. Yoshi was simply not sharp and our attack could not overcome the start.
“There are good things but by team, it was just not enough.”
The MLB classification “much more interesting”
The dodgers came from a 5-4 defeat against the Blue Jays of Toronto and now held a thin advance on the Padres of San Diego at the top of the West National League
“I hate saying that the loss (the previous one) has resumed,” wrote Roberts. “We are good to reset and come back.
“There must certainly be an emergency. We are looking for a certain traction and to stack some victories. I don’t think anyone is blind in the standings. It has become much more interesting.
“We have to go out and play a good baseball. Whether you like it or not, that’s what it is. It is not for lack of care or work, it simply does not do work, in the way. It is about doing it.”
The second match in the series takes place Wednesday (21:38 and / 18:38 pt / 02:30 BST Thursday).
