Jose Quintana Bounces Back Against Rangers
Los Angeles Angels starter Jose Quintana allowed only one run through five innings pitched in the Angels 7-4 loss to the Rangers on Wednesday.

Quintana's first two starts will be ones he would like to forget, allowing a […]
Shohei Ohtani Goes Deep Wednesday
Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Shohei Ohtani went 1-for-3, with a solo home run, in the Angels 7-4 loss to the Rangers on Wednesday. One day after tossing four shutout innings, Ohtani smacked a slider deep into the seats for his fifth home run of the season. When Ohtani signed with the Angels, these are […]

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Justin Upton (cramps) was removed from Wednesday's game in the ninth inning. Upton was looked at by the team trainer, who determined that he was experiencing cramps.

On Wednesday, Angels manager Joe Maddon said that he wouldn't rule out the possibility of Rendon returning this weekend against the Houston Astros. It seems just as likely, if not […]
