Los Angeles Angels vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction

I’m backing the over in this game. I get the case to be made for either side here but both starters have been hit fairly hard as of late and I think this is a tough start for Jose Soriano against the Dodgers imposing lineup and Sheehan against an Angels lineup he had trouble with in his lone start against. Give me the over here.
