Angels vs. Tigers Game Highlights (8/9/25) | MLB Highlights

Charlie Morton was impressive in his Tigers debut in Philly going six innings and giving up just one run tonight. He’ll make his first home start as a Tiger so much to like about Charlie Morton first start as a Absolutely. And Charlie can still get that fastball up to 97 miles an hour still possesses that wicked wicked curveball that it was mostly fastballs and curveballs against the Phillies. Two outs. Here’s Mike Trout and a base hit Mike wastes no time extending his hitting streak to eight straight games, 11 in a row in which he’s reached base safely. A two out knock here in the first Taylor was hitless with a walk yesterday in the opener. There goes Trout and Ward sends a drive out to left Jones got a good break but it’s him. Trout’s score. Ward into second with an RB I double. And for the second straight night, the Angels are the first to crack open the scoreboard and it was a double just like it was yesterday for Logan this time Taylor Ward two down man on second for Yanda back curveball. Reliable two out double gives the Angels the early lead angels of steak. You do an early one run lead before he throws his first pitch of the evening making his 25th start of the year and somehow, still looking for his first road victory of 20 two. That’s the thing. It’s been real surprising. He’s been great at the big A but there’s been some solid games on the road too and always when it comes down to you, Kuchi is how he does in the first inning and how efficient he could be last night. Matt leads off line drive down the right field line will fall. That’s a nice way to foul up. Boy, matt had a big smile on his face today, didn’t, didn’t he? You and I both had a chance to chat with him about last night’s hit and, uh, and you said it at the time just feels big for this team. But for Matt, here’s Jiah Jones now making a starting appearance and battings tonight stares down the runner at first and the next offering home is a called strike three change piece back to back changeups. Toson 32 pitch and Torkelson lifts a drive out to left wards , got it in the glare to retire the side to the second one. Nothing Angel. Charlie Morton has struck out four straight including the side here in the second inning. He’s got five K’s through two and we’re on to the bottom of the second one. Angels wins. Perez, the three two line drive over the glove of the line, got a piece of it. Perez around second. He’s not gonna stop at second heading to third. He’ll make it without a throw. Fred Hassle went on turns an apparent double into a leadoff triple to start the second. Yeah, you don’t see a whole lot of triples from a right handed hitter down the left field line. Here’s AndyIb–ez. Ib–ez. Now with the Angels bringing the infield in shot past Tigers tie it up. Andy B sizzling shot. Perez scores for one, mcada right there on the edge of the grass. Doesn’t really have time. Dylan Dingler now got a curveball puts away dingler second strikeout tonight for cucci and that’s a big one. Here’s this one driven deep to right field into the corner. Campero will reach out. Abanes had to stop at second. He’ll head over to third J Bae into second base. Another hard hit ball into the corner. Tigers have runners at 2nd and 3rd 1 out. The number nine hitter, jake Rogers. Jake Rogers deep. This is gonna get the run home gun. Pero. Both Bazbaz will take Ib–ez presses home plate. Jake Rogers gives the Tigers the lead in the second top fielder, Matt Fling and fling strikes out on a slider damage limited but two runs for the Tigers has given Detroit a one run lead, got him swinging strike three on a curve down and away strikeout number seven for Charlie Moore six in a row. Two strikes on Nolan, shall the pitch got him swinging strike. Three, Mart-n has struck out frames, seven consecutive hitters struck him out and Kuchi gets all three outs with strikeouts. So these pitchers are getting some swings and misses here in the early going Charlie Morton has been very good in this ballgame and a base hit off the bat of Taylor Ward. If you look where this pitch is at, that is exactly his sweet spot and that hits him and his 1st and 2nd. Now for the halos with only one away, the Angels tying run in scoring position for joe Adell. There’s one hard hit to left, well hit chasing Jones watching and it’s gone. Boy, joe says, hello, what a season he is putting together now 70 RBIs along with 25 home runs for Adele Cole and scott Adele just happened to be in town and they just, their son hit the Angels a two run lead. Now, five straight Angels have reached in the fourth inning men at the corners for Gustavo Campero 02 pitch. Got it swinging strike three on that curveball. Second time he gets poo and that’s the ninth strike of the game for Charlie Morton dangerous hitter here in zack Neto. He has struck him out twice tonight. 32 high in the air to center field, not deep. Perez will make the easy grab eight men to the plate, heavy damage. The Angels take the lead. Engler hooks this one to left base hit sits in front of Taylor Ward if they can have a big inning here. And just, he may not make it through five tying run to the plate in j by his breaking ball line to right center. It’s sinking and it falls in for a hit touching second heading. Third dingler and Baez is two for two and the Tigers met at the corners. Nobody out for jake Rogers swing and a miss on a big heater at 96 best velocity afternoon. So far from Kuchi seven strikeouts for Kuci and hardly out of the woods yet. Now it’s the top of the order. Matt high in the air to center. This will get the run home, Adele with the catch dingler scores. Baez will hold it first sacrifice fly Tiger down a run that’s good at bat for MADD throw down to second. No chance Baez has to be stolen. Jy Baez likes his fifth of the year. See if glaber Torres can’t tie this game up. Now down the left field line hooking Baez will score. Glamor Torres delivers with two outs tied at four. What? An at bat, Jy Baez I think is going to score from first base on that but you never know. I mean, just such a big stolen base to get himself into scoring position to take it completely out of the hands of, well, gets his first hit in this weekend series, he had gone zero for six and the Angels have a base runner on the potential. Go ahead run on base for Mike Trout. The 12 got him looking strike three called strikeout number 10 for Charlie Moore. Taylor Ward who’s got a couple of hits tonight will hit out to left Jones on the run looking up and that one’s gone. Taylor Ward with a two run shot a triple shy of the cycle. And once again, the Angels go on top by two. That’s a big boy area too. Left center field 27th home run of the year where final line for Morton 10 strikeouts and he gives up six runs. Joe Adle is having a big day. What better occasion to speak with his family? All right. So we got a big crew that’s hanging out here. So walk, walk me through. Who of the Adele party is here to go watch Joe hit some home runs of the Adele party. We have cousin Josh and Tasha and cousin Josh orchestrated 35 family members to go down to Atlanta. We have neighbors, al and Nicole been neighbors for 20 years and we have a now and uncle Robbie. So we have the whole crew. It was fun on the pregame show today and we were showing the grand slam that he hit here back in 2021. Can you think of maybe a favorite moment from his time that he’s been in the major leagues that you guys have been able to be and enjoy so much is , looks like we’re trying to turn the play. What a job there. So, since you brought up the grand slam in Detroit in 21 personally, for us, that was very memorable. I was not here, but my father was here and my father does not miss a game. He keeps his own stats and has done so in a spiral notebook for years, he can tell you everything and he happened to be at that game. So my dad said, if I never make another MB game to watch joe, I had my best moment in Detroit just as parents can. Can you tell me a little bit through, walk me through the conversation and, and I know that joe has had some struggles and he’s bounced out of it in the back and forth. I know he’s talked about leaning on you guys. What, what are some of those conversations like we talk about every day and we just talk about being positive and doing whatever you can to help the team. It’s not really about you and what your personal stats are. It’s about how you can help the angels be success. And that’s really what we talk about all the time. Well, congratulations on all the success. I can’t wait to see what’s to come. I think we’re just getting started. Enjoy the rest of your game. I won’t bother you guys anymore. Let’s send it back to matt and go. Trent. Fantastic. That was really great answers I’ve ever heard in an interview they’re unbelievable base is empty on one sliding back in it. Stop. Beautiful. Takes care of Travis Darna. I just like this throw from Andy Ib–ez makes sure that he stops. The baseball gets up to his feet and Then throws it little bit high just so he knows that it’s going to sink on its way over there because of the long throw. Just a nice trajectory to give spencer Torkelson the perfect throw chest high tying runs on base in a two run game two. Gone in the sixth Gleyber Torres. Now he has doubled in a run, walked and flied out. There they go 32 pitch on a backs up, soft hands, gets his man. That’s that Alan Trammell throw. He was talking to him today about that knowing when to let one go and one just to be smooth on the throw. That was smooth operators. Here’s Luis Rengifo. Now he has tripled tonight. Oh, Louie get you some high and deep out to right and gone. Gee he goes gone. That’s a big at home run. We talk, I need that against this Tiger team, sixth home run , triple home run in the game for the Angels, sixth home run in just two games in the series , 7 to 4 lead bottom of the ninth inning. And Kenley Jansen is going to try to bring this one home four 167 career saves for Kenley Jansen. Looking, we set it up, big heavy cutter. There was a little extra pause for kenley before he unloaded there. Angels a strike away from their second win of the year against Detroit and Green went around that will do it. Kenley Jansen wraps it up, earns the save on the back end of a 7 to 4 victory and the Angels even up this three game series with a win on this Saturday night.
