Angels vs. A’s Game Highlights (8/16/25) | MLB Highlights

A splendid Saturday at the ballpark here in West Sacramento. It’s game two against the Angels here this weekend. Morales getting to the big leagues here for the first time , considered a top pitching prospect in the A’s system. He’s just 22 years old. He dominated when he pitched in Cuba singles from and Trout. So the Angels have them loaded now with two outs for Joe Adell and this is a key moment very early in this ball game. Joe Ad has had some big hits for the Angels this year. They’ll have a chance here with the bag, full fly ball deep right center field going back by the, he’s got, did not have the off the bat of a Tyler anderson. His first start in 10 days. Really? What he wants to do is win for his first start in 20 outings. That’s still hard to believe too for Tyler anderson coming up to the plate, we need to get to the bottom of that nickname and he is red hot and Kobe was three for three with a Mammoth home run last night. 11 to left Jack. He’s living up to his nickname. Another crank job to left and that’s his third of the season 2 to 0 game. And Kobe Thomas just leaning back on the baseball these days , it wasn’t a matter of, if just a matter of how far luis Reo leads off the second inning against Morales hit hard and over the head of Schuman, a base hit some good swings against early on. This is a good swing here. That’s the second out in the inning on the strikeouts both out in the inning on strikeouts and now Neto will be the batter with a runner in scoring position two away. That’s fair down the left field line. Neto jumped on the 30 pitch. He knocks in the first run of the game scores. Neto Barrels for second got him but the run did score at the plate crossing. The plate was when he just ahead of the tag at second on Netto. Angels are on the board. It’s 2 to 1 is one of a kind the on field leadership. He’s got a huge motor, has a great sense of humor, but off the field, his heart is bigger than all of those characteristics combined and protecting that heart tonight is the chess protector that has been created by the patients at Memorial Miller Children and Women’s hospital. This is how Logan chooses to represent players weekend by honoring others who can use a little uplifting. It’s interesting to me that Anderson has walked the first batter of each inning. Almost like there stiffness is there more after having sat in the dugout a little bit bouncer up the middle as made a stab at it behind the bag and gets the double play. That ball was hit hard back up the middle, double play. Turn something you’ve done a ton of over the last couple of seasons. Max Schuman bats with two outs to left center closing, sliding makes the catch. He is the jumps he gets on the baseball are spectacular. Teodosio. Two walks in the inning four in the game, but only one has scored so far. Anderson trying to keep it that way here in the third. I didn’t get the call there pitch that looked like it was in there three pitches he missed in the sequence alone behind the plate. Anderson could not believe. I mean, the other two were more borderline. This was pretty much in there that’s in the middle of the plate. So for anderson and told you about it with Lance Bartell behind the plate zone, tightens up there. Who struck out looking in the first inning. He hit 38 against lefties entering plate tonight has the bases loaded, but two outs in a one run game, 30 pitches this inning from anderson down for a base hit. Rooker scores. Here comes Kurtz. It’s a two RB I single for her days. What a fight by the A’s shortstop 4 to 1 and that is a big two out knock for DNA Theodosia leads it off for the Angels 12 ground ball diving stab Harris gets to his feet. Goes to first and we know about this defense, we saw that last year and this might be the best defensive third baseman the A’s have in their organization. He’s here up at the big league level. The first three innings you could see were a bit rocky but still able to hold his ground. And again coming off an outing where command was a major issue. Five walks in just two tonight and now you’re just one strike away from being able to get through five solid innings. Big sequence right here for this kid facing Mike Trout. It popped up on the infield. The shortstop Herne is there. He makes the catch and what a job by luis morales. He retires Mike Trout on a pop up and assuming that’s the last pitch he’s going to throw tonight and he limits the Angels to just one run through five innings. The pitcher 85 pitches for Tyler anderson a brisk fourth inning, but he’s out of the game here in the fifth. And ryan Zephyr, John takes over another missed opportunity to get a W today for Tyler anderson. Rooker is zero for one did walk and score three deep to left. You can that Rooker rudely welcomes Zephyr into the game, makes it 5 to 1 athletics with his 25th bomb of the year and a bomb. It was 421 ft out to left field. He knew it right off the bat. Thanks for the high fives skip. Got here’s zack Netto, an RB I single in the second resulted in the long run for the Angels and he pops it up a mile high in foul ground as it state and Harris a full effort goes into the dugout crony there on the left side of your screen, crony , any interest whatsoever. Nah, he’s like, what are, what are you guys doing? Well, I’ll get it right there. No problem. You want it. I got it. I got it. Leadoff base on balls brings up brett Harris Harris showing again immediately on one pitch. Oh, that could have been trouble. It’s almost a moment where you just kind of leave the bat where it was at a self preservation and baseball almost knocked that bat back into the face of Brett Harris. Now you got two strikes. Let’s see if Brett Harris able to find that hole open on the right side. One, two in the dirt kicks away. Hernes takes second and a hard turn around. Second. Thought about maybe stretching for an extra base because it went a long way away from the Angel Catcher O’hoppe. Now still at second. Nobody out two, two soft liner to left center field that will drop down for a hit her is coming around Harrison RB. I single that works out off but it’s 6 to 1 A’s, that’s the baseball gods saying I see you working Brad Harris, you’re willing to stick your face in there. Give up the at bat for the betterment of the ball club. You know what? That’s about a knock runners on the corners. Two outs. The A’s have since added a run in this inning to make it six to one rooker. Now up for the fifth time tonight on one pitch, let it flare shallow right center and it drops down. Harris scores Schuman third now 7 to 1 another. RB I for Rooker is 72nd of the year. The A’s lead by six, a couple of two out runners here in the ninth inning will give Shanell the chance he’s been on base three times tonight. It’s off of Newcom backhanded by a fires it and gets past Kurtz at first to do will score and end up at third. So Trout will have a chance here in the ninth inning and it’s 7 to 2 A fans feet here to the stretch pitch, bouncing ball to third. Harris retreats playing game two winning 7 to 2 over the Halos an all around complete team performance. They win by five after winning by seven last night and Luis morales collects his first major league win.

  1. A's get a few more pitchers they are going to be a serious problem for the rest of the decade. They're doing this to the angels who just did it to the Dodgers. Angels are no slouch.

  2. The good news is the A's are extremely loaded with excellent young hitters. They hit for power, average and rbi's. If they could develop some pitching, they are a playoff caliber team.

  3. Well, Jenny Cavnar not being in this highlight package makes this terrible, horrible, no good very bad day just a bit brighter! Like this comment if you want her to retire forever! Rangersforever❤

  4. なんやこのチーム。ドジャース戦だけ謎のライバル意識あっただけやん笑 やっぱ変わらんなこのチーム。ドジャースとかヤンキースとかの試合だけ無駄に変にライバル意識燃やして勝って、他の試合は負けまくるの
