Angels Pick Up 7-2 Win Against Colorado
Los Angeles turned a good effort from starter Rod Swift into a win over the Colorado Rockies at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. The Angels won the game, 7-2. Swift yielded 1 run over 5.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 1, and struck out 9. His record improves to 2-2. The Rockies drop to 9-10 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2026 season.

Mike Trout, who finished 2nd in the AL in slugging percentage with .524 in 2023, helped out the Los Angeles cause in the bottom of the third inning with a run-scoring ground out. For the game, the designated hitter was 2 for 4 with 2 singles.

"Really good pitchers have that ability to raise their game when they need to," said Los Angeles manager Mike Scioscia.
