The Angels and Diamondbacks meet in a late‑June interleague matchup between two teams trending in different directions. Los Angeles enters at 30–44, struggling to find consistency on both sides of the ball. Arizona, at 37–36, is hovering around .500 and trying to build momentum behind a rotation anchored by Eduardo Rodríguez, who has been one of their most reliable arms. The Angels counter with Aldegheri, a young left‑hander still adjusting to major‑league lineups.

Los Angeles Angels
Mike Trout — OUT (back)
