On a weekend of rivalries in MLB, in the first game of the Freeway Series, the Dodgers finally got their revenge on the Angels' improbable dominance over them in recent years. And they certainly did, delivering a resounding victory at Angel Stadium, where only the blue-clad fans enjoyed watching their Dodgers score 15 runs, 9 of them between the eighth and ninth innings.
Ohtani showed no mercy to his former team. The Japanese star had his third multi-hit game of May on Saturday and his highest-RBI game of 2026 so far, with five. He hit a bases-clearing triple, advancing home on an error, and in the following inning, he drove in Muncy and Hernández with a double.
Teoscar Hernández's bat, which has been slightly criticized by the demanding Dodgers fans, is starting to respond; The Dominican is getting hot, having only managed 8 hits since May 13. Despite the Dodgers scoring 15 runs, only Mookie Betts hit a home run, his fourth of the season for the multiple World Series winner.

Our Los Angeles Angels vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
The expensive Dodgers are dominating and aiming for a three-peat, but in a long season, the Padres are looking to steal their dominance in the NL West. However, Roberts' team is doing everything right, neglecting every aspect of the game, even fielding; they are the third best in MLB.
The weak link and investment yet to be paid off is the young Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki, who hasn't quite found his rhythm like his countryman Yamamoto. He'll have another chance, but he's typically allowing around three runs per game; his ERA is 5.88.
Our prediction for Angels vs Dodgers is: Over 9 runs.
