Logan O'Hoppe hit a go-ahead two-run single with two outs in the eighth inning, rallying the Los Angeles Angels to a 6-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday in Anaheim, Calif.
The Angels completing a first-ever six-game Freeway Series sweep of their Southern California rivals. The Angels' only other season sweep vs. the Dodgers came when they went 4-0 in 2019.
The Dodgers, who took their fourth straight loss, fell one game behind the San Diego Padres in the National League West. Los Angeles hadn't trailed in the division since April 27.
With the bases loaded and the Dodgers up 5-4 in the eighth, O'Hoppe lined a 103.2 mph fastball from reliever Edgardo Henriquez into center field to drive in Mike Trout and Taylor Ward, who had both walked to start the inning against Justin Wrobleski (4-4).
Jo Adell hit a one-out infield single and Luis Rengifo struck out before O'Hoppe delivered.
Brock Burke (6-1) threw one inning of shutout relief and Kenley Jansen pitched a 1-2-3 ninth to garner his 23rd save.
Ward homered and scored two runs. Zach Neto added a two-run double for the Angels, and Bryce Teodosio doubled, singled and also reached above the center field fence to rob Andy Pages of a two-run homer in the seventh inning.
For the Dodgers, Will Smith homered and drove in three runs, Mookie Betts went 2-for-5 with two RBIs and a run and Shohei Ohtani tripled, walked, scored a run and also threw a season-high 4 1/3 innings.
Ohtani, making his first start at Anaheim Stadium since tearing his UCL in the second inning an Aug. 23, 2023, start for the Angels against the Cincinnati Reds, allowed four runs on five hits while striking out seven. It was the ninth start in his pitching comeback from Tommy John surgery. He threw a season-high 80 pitches, 50 for strikes.
The Dodgers jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Ohtani led off the game with a triple into the right field corner to extend his hitting streak to 12 games and the scored on a single by Betts. One out later, Smith drilled a two-run homer 407 feet into the left field bleachers.
The Angels cut the deficit to 3-2 in the second on Ward's solo homer and a sacrifice fly by Rengifo, driving in Yoan Moncada, who had doubled.
The Dodgers extended the lead to 5-2 in the fourth on a bases-loaded single by Betts and a bases-loaded walk by Smith.
The Angels cut it to 5-4 in the fifth on a two-run double by Neto.
