Rookie Pitcher Shuts Down Orioles

Angels crush Orioles 5-1 as rookie Ryan Johnson dazzles in just his third start, tossing six innings, striking out eight, and nearly throwing a no-hitter while shutting down Baltimore’s potent offense. Nolan Schanuel’s early two-run homer sparks the win, and despite a late Orioles run, LA holds strong. Shane Baz takes the loss, and injuries to key Orioles players like Holliday and Alexander hurt their chances. The Angels’ young pitching is heating up — and they’re riding that momentum into the series finale. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
