Angels Secure First Win of 2025 with Soriano's Gem and Moncada's Clutch RBI
José Soriano's dominant pitching and Yoán Moncada's game-winning hit lift Los Angeles over Chicago, while Jo Adell's injury raises roster concerns.
- José Soriano pitched seven innings of two-hit ball, striking out five and walking two, in a commanding season debut for the Angels.
- Yoán Moncada, facing his former team, delivered an eighth-inning RBI single that drove in Jorge Soler for the game's only run.
- Jorge Soler advanced to third base on a wild pitch by Mike Clevinger, setting up Moncada's decisive hit.
- Kenley Jansen earned his first save of the season and the 448th of his career, closing out a combined two-hitter with Ben Joyce.
- Jo Adell exited in the fifth inning with left hip tightness, leaving questions about the Angels' depth in center field as Kyren Paris, primarily an infielder, is the backup option.
