The Los Angeles Angels and Arizona Diamondbacks meet Saturday in MLB action at Chase Field. The Angels look for a win after winning nine of their last 12 games. The Diamondbacks need a win to snap an eight-game losing streak.
The Los Angeles Angels have scored 20 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six straight games. The Angels have won 11 of their last 12 games when scoring four or more runs. Jared Walsh leads the Angels with 63 hits and 40 RBI while David Fletcher and Shohei Ohtani have combined for 116 hits and 62 RBI. Alex Cobb gets the ball, and he is 4-2 with a 4.24 ERA and 49 strikeouts this season. This will be Cobb’s first career game against the Diamondbacks.

The Angels are 5-1 in their last 6 overall. The Diamondbacks are 2-8 in their last 10 home games and 16-37 in their last 53 overall. The over is 4-1 in Angels last 5 overall. The under is 4-1 in Diamondbacks last 5 overall. The Angels are 1-4 in the last 5 meetings.
The Angels are playing some of their best ball of the season right now and an extra inning win adds to the confidence. The Diamondbacks are riding the struggle bus with a pitching staff that gets rocked left and right. I want nothing to do with the Diamondbacks. Give me the Angels for another victory.
