Prediction

The Angels are sending right-hander Zach Plesac (1-0, 4.50 ERA) to the mound as the Angels look for the series sweep. Plesac has a chance to show the team what he can do, especially with the injury to lefty Patrick Sandoval in Friday's game. The Dodgers are countering with right-hander Tyler Glasnow (7-5, 3.00 ERA) as Los Angeles is looking to even the series. The Dodgers have a potent offense but the Halos were able to shut it down on Friday. That doesn't happen two games in a row as the Dodgers take the second contest.

Dodgers 8, Angels 4

• Angels outfielder Taylor Ward had the game-winning hit last night. He upped his season statistics to hitting .240 with 12 home runs and 38 runs batted in.

• This is the first series that the Angels are facing off against former star Shohei Ohtani. Ohtani burned them for a home run last night but the Halos found a way to come out on top.
