Mike Trout's 4 RBIs help Angels defeat Diamondbacks
Jul 12, 2025; Anaheim, California, USA; Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi (16) delivers to the plate during the third inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Angel Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jayne Kamin-Oncea-Imagn Images Mike Trout had two hits, including the 395th home run of his career, and drove in four runs to lead the Los Angeles Angels to a 10-5 victory over the slumping Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night in Anaheim, Calif.
Nolan Schanuel went 3-for-4 with a walk and an RBI, Luis Rengifo and Zach Neto each had two hits and an RBI and Travis d'Arnaud added two hits and two runs scored for Los Angeles, which finished with a season-high 15 hits.
All-Star Yusei Kikuchi (4-6) picked up the win, allowing three runs on six hits over 5 2/3 innings. He walked one and struck out five and left one batter after taking a 105 mph comebacker by Josh Naylor off his left shoulder. Kikuchi then gave up a single to Randal Grichuk before departing. He threw 93 pitches, 67 for strikes.
Eugenio Suarez hit two home runs and James McCann had two hits for Arizona, which lost its third straight game and for the eighth time in its last 11 games.
Zac Gallen (7-10) suffered the loss, allowing six runs on eight hits over five innings. It was the seventh time this season that Gallen has allowed at least five runs in a game.
Los Angeles took a 1-0 lead in the first on a fielder's choice by Taylor Ward, driving in Neto, who had singled.
Arizona took a 2-1 lead on solo homers by Suarez in the second and fourth innings. It marked the fourth multi-homer game of the season for Suarez, who hit four home runs in an April 26 contest against Atlanta.
The Angels took a 4-2 lead in the bottom of the fourth on an RBI double by Jo Adell, a sacrifice fly by Jorge Soler and an RBI single by Rengifo. Trout made it 6-2 an inning later with his 17th home run to right, driving in Schanuel, who had singled.
Arizona closed to 6-5 on an RBI single by Grichuk in the sixth and an RBI single by McCann and a bases-loaded walk by Alek Thomas in the eighth. But the Angels answered with four runs off reliever Juan Morillo in the bottom of the eighth, highlighted by a two-run single by Trout and RBI singles by Neto and Schanuel, to seal the win.
