The Los Angeles Angels lost their opening game of a three-game series against the Athletics on Friday, 10-3.
Hopes were high after taking down the Los Angeles Dodgers, however, the Halos offense failed to generate any momentum and lost control of the game in the late innings.
In other news, the Angels re-signed reliever Shaun Anderson, who has already elected free agency three times this season after being DFA'd from the Angels.
Additionally, Gustavo Campero is set to miss an extended amount of time with a high ankle sprain. Interim manager Ray Montgomery revealed the outfielder would miss significant time but avoided giving a concrete timeline, stating "it's going to be a bit."
Finally, the Orange County Register's Jeff Fletcher revealed the Angels will likely keep third baseman Anthony Rendon next season on the final year of his contract. He has missed all of 2025 and hasn't played more than 58 games in a season since coming to Los Angeles.
