The betting sites weren't wrong when they set a close game for the first game of the Angels-Cardinals series, even though St. Louis had swept the Twins in the opening series. The game was tied by just one run for much of the game. Kyren Paris hit a triple for the Angels that tied the game, extending it into extra innings, where the Angels would score two runs in the tenth to close out a 4-5 victory for the visitors.
Trout didn't hit a hit in three at-bats but drove in two runs via two sacrifice flies. Soler and Moncada went 1-for-8, but despite that and the Angels striking out 10 times, they earned a valuable win, which puts their record at 3-1 in 2025.
The Cardinals went with their veteran starter for Game 1, but for Game 2, the Angels will start Tuesday's game with 35-year-old Kyle Hendricks, well known to the Cardinals. It will be a historic game for Hendricks after leaving the Cubs after 11 uninterrupted seasons with them.

Our Los Angeles Angels vs St. Louis Cardinals Prediction
At odds of around -150, the Cards will be favorites to win the game, although it could very well be a close call considering the Angels' last three games were decided by one run. Liberatore, the 25-year-old left-hander, will be the starting pitcher for the home team. Oliver Marmol said he will give Liberatore an extended run in 2025 to prove his worth as a starter. Our prediction for Angels vs Cardinals is: Over 8.5 runs.
