The Angels got their lone run of the game in the 4th inning from an RBI double by Zach Neto off Brewers reliever Grant Anderson.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Blake Perkins added a sacrifice fly to score Pratt in the 5th inning and then in the 6th, Jesus Made ripped a 2 RBI single to give him his second hit and 3 RBIs on the day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">On the pitching side, Brandon Woodruff was the big news for the Brewers. He made his spring debut this year, throwing 2 scoreless IP with 3 Ks on 32 pitches. His fastball velo was sitting 92-93 as he continues to ramp up for the regular season. He talked to reporters after his outing that his goal is still not necessarily Opening Day, but being healthy for the whole season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Following Woodruff was Trevor Megill, who struck out the side in his one inning, then Anderson and Easton McGee. Non-roster players Drew Rom, Yerlin Rodriguez, and Bryan Rivera rounded out the pitchers for this one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Pratt and Made both went 2-for-3 as they continue to impress.
