Trey Mancini<\/a> hit a two-run triple to give the Angels<\/a> an early lead, rookie Sam Aldegheri<\/a> tossed five strong innings, and Ryan Zeferjahn<\/a> struck out Cedric Mullins<\/a> with the bases loaded in the ninth in a 4-3 win<\/a> over the Tampa Bay Rays on Friday.<\/p>\n

Zeferjahn walked Junior Caminero on four pitches after replacing Mitch Farris with two on and two outs. He struck out Mullins swinging on a 2-and-2 pitch for his second save, sealing the Angels\u2019 third straight win and fourth in five games.<\/p>\n

Aldegheri (2-1) gave up two runs (one earned) and three hits with three walks in his second start this season and the seventh of his career.<\/p>\n

Mike Trout and Jo Adell had back-to-back, one-out singles off Shane McClanahan (6-4) in the first inning, and Mancini followed with a two-out triple for a 2-0 lead.<\/p>\n

Oswald Peraza led off the third with a double, and Nick Madrigal drove him in with a two-out single before stealing second and scoring on Logan O\u2019Hoppe\u2019s single for a 4-0 advantage.<\/p>\n

Aldegheri gave up a hit and walked two in the first inning, then retired 10 straight before walking Chandler Simpson to start the fifth. Nick Fortes reached on a fielding error by shortstop Zach Neto, and Taylor Walls\u2019 bunt single loaded the bases with no outs.<\/p>\n

Aldegheri struck out Yandy D\u00edaz looking, but Jonathan Aranda singled to left to cut it to 4-2. Caminero hit into a double play to end the rally.<\/p>\n

Simpson robbed Adell of a homer in the eighth to keep the Rays within two, and Aranda cut it to 4-3 with a two-out single off Farris before Zeferjahn finished.<\/p>\n

McClanahan gave up four runs and eight hits in four innings but struck out seven. Mason Englert pitched four shutout innings and gave up four hits and two walks.<\/p>\n

U.S. Navy Captain and NASA Artemis II astronaut Victor Glover threw out the ceremonial first pitch to Trout.<\/p>\n
