A's vs. Angels Game Highlights (4/24/23) | MLB Highlights

On the mound tonight for the Angels somebody they'd like to see get a little deeper into games left hander Jose Suarez who has not gotten out of the fifth inning in any of his previous three starts this year Mr. Rory Ruiz someone you want to keep off base with the way that he can fly and stay Rory Ruiz climbs the ladder lost his helmet right at home plate Mike Trout's got an easy one to start the night and there's one away there's another high pop up this one from Jordan Diaz Trout converging with Taylor Ward it's the captain in center field to retire Diaz two quick outs here and Brent Rooker will be the next batter first pitch on Rooker this ball is lifted high in the air it's hit deep down the left side and that ball is gone Brent Rooker who entered the game hitting 318 it's his fifth home run of the season and the Oakland A's strike first two out solo Homer and now Jesus Aguilar the one two in the air to left that's pretty well hit going back is Ward Ward leaping up and that one is gone a home run back to back homers for the Oakland Athletics and Aguilar with his third of the season makes it to nothing Oakland there's a look at the young left hander the numbers not great but a lot of that Eric came in the first two starts of the season he's been much better his last two times out of this Angels squad hitting 287 against lefties as Rooker will track this one into the corner and Ward is retired for out number one round four for five against Wolde Chuck and the three to pitch strike three the sweeper caught the corner and trout frozen at the plate the second out now Shohei Ohtani at the plate out of the way of that was close every single Angels fan holding their breath for a split second they watch baseball's most exciting player dive out of the way the three to fastball reaching for it fouled off and I believe it may have been interference did it hit the catcher catchers and he got catchers interference and so Tony's going to hit first Rendon trying to get it going again on his way to second and he's picked off Ohtani is out at second and the side is retired to nothing Oakland after one and now it's like he's Diaz who has struggled to begin the year ball for from Jose Suarez Suarez walking the leadoff batter here in the second that'll bring Carlos Perez to the plate and he lashes this one down the left field line it'll bounce off the wall headed around the third and slamming on the brakes is Diaz as Perez coasts in with a double and Oakland in business again in the second Smith has had some some loud numbers in the minor he just hasn't been able to translate when he gets up to the big leagues to Smith sends this one to the air deep down the left field line and this one is gone a three for Kevin Smith his first of the year and a five nothing Oakland Lee Ken Waltercheck has to be thinking that Christmas came early he's enjoying the biggest lead that the A's have had at any point this season. And Anthony Rendon on a line to center and a diving catch is made by Ruiz what a play to Rob Rendon is Brandon Drury his first year with the Angels he signed a two year contract in the offseason. Here's a high ball from Brandon there's one closer for the Angels home run for Drury Donovan said he's going to get started soon. Received his silver slugger award yesterday and now he ranks one four hundred forty one feet. I think he's rushed top of the third inning. Brent Rooker leading things off for Oakland five one lead. And Rooker hits this one hard to left on the run is Ward if it is fair it is gone and it is a home run. How about two homers tonight for Rooker six on the year and the Oakland Athletics lead six one in the third. Aguilar says this one to center Trout at the. The A's brought the power to Anaheim seven one Oakland Aguilar and Rooker back to back homers in the first and the third first batter up for the Angels who trail at seven to one is Angel catcher Chad Wallach. This is hit high and it's hit deep out into center field and that one is out by the Rocks and it is out of here. So the Angels are playing long ball as well in this game. Wallach hits his second and the Oakland lead is now seven to two first batter up for the Angels will be Mike Trout as he gets set to face Ken Waldachuk. His little tapper to the left of the mound Waldachuk the pitcher has it his throw is going to be a wild throw that goes down the right side and foul ground but Trout will not be able to get beyond first base. So he's on that's going to be an infield hit for him. So Tony is the batter count on show he's doing one he grounds this one sharply it's off the glove of the first baseman Aguilar that slows it down as it rolls down the right side and the Angels are going to have runners at second and third with no outs hit sharply up that first base side next batter for the Angels will be Anthony Rendon a chance to drive in some runs here and Rendon lines a base hit down the left field line that's going to score to Trout and Tony come home. Anthony Rendon's got a sharply hit two run double and the Angels a little closer now it's seven to four two pitcher for the A's James Cabrillion every game he appeared in last year was starter first batter he faces his Brandon Drury here's the two to that's low it skips past the catcher Langley's and Rendon will just jog to third base and get there without a throw. He walks Brandon Drury was a fastball on three and two that just missed. So now the tying run will come to the plate and it's Luis Renato takes ball for it's back to back walks from Cabrillion and now the bases are loaded. Chad Wallach is Dua Wallach with a little blooper right field base hit. Don't scores Drury stops a third Angels keep it moving it's now seven to five as Wallach has his second RBI tonight Zach Neto is the batter Neto lines it down the left field line scores when he first scores Wallach a third and the count comes through Zach Neto's got a two run double it's seven seven. Here's Drury Renfroe at second the go ahead run Drury with a little blooper. That's a base hit to center Renfroe's being waved around third. Here comes the throw to Luis to the plate. It is not in time. The Angels down seven to one at one point they have scored seven unanswered and they are up eight to seven here in the bottom of the seventh. Conor Capel coming on pitch hit for Jordan Diaz and Capel in the right field base hit up with it is Renfroe the throw home and no movement by no throw no to made the turn but had to backtrack to third. Now it's Brent Rooker two home runs tonight bases loaded one out and it's ball for this game is tied. Rooker draws the bases loaded walk no to home to score and Oakland has tied it in the ninth. Langley is it's a high fly pretty deep to left what is all the way back. We are in extra innings top of the tenth. Let me see as to the right side one will try to advance the throw not in time just slid around the Rendon tag Langley Lears to third Diaz to first with nobody out. We're going to take a look. Langley Lears looked like he got to the outside part of the bag looted Rendon's tag. This is pretty aggressive by Renfroe. Did he get in there as a tough one to see right there. Did the string from the glove. I'm saying yeah that's what I'm saying. Like I was kind of being facetious there but on further review I think the string got him. Well we've seen a little bit of everything tonight. I don't know that I've ever seen a game where you're out by a string. Runner is safe Paul stands as called Noda first and third with one out and Noda to left. That's a field corner. Langley Lears scores Peterson on his way home to throw not in time ten eight Oakland as Noda delivers the two run base hit Kemp the batter now and Kemp delivers with a base hit in the right. Noda will score the 11th run of the night for Oakland and Kemp with a big insurance run plated in the 10th eleven eight eight first batter is Brandon Drury Drury sends one deep that's to the right center field. This one might go it is stillizing yet but that's a homer still standing at second base. The first base umpire is telling him to go it's gone it's over the yellow line Drury who has hit his second homer tonight has made it eleven to ten two outs to one. Here's Mike Trout Trout it's a bouncer to third as a fair ball and the game is over. Crazy night belongs to the Oakland A's. They survived the Angels in ten innings and is an eleven to ten final.
