The Tampa Bay Rays and the Los Angeles Angels will square it off in Thursday’s series finale at George M. Steinbrenner Stadium.
The Rays evened the series at 1-1 after they sneaked past the Angels 5-4 in Game 2. Tampa Bay raced to an early 4-0 lead after Jose Cabellero blasted his first career Grand Slam in the first inning. The Angels responded with three consecutive solo homers from Kyren Paris, Taylor Ward, and Jorge Soler to cut the deficit to one run 3-4 at the end of the fifth inning. But the Rays ended the drought with a solo home run from Yandy Diaz. Paris delivered his second homer of the night in the end inning to once again put the Angels within one run in the top of the 8th, but Rays closer Pete Fairbanks shut the door on LA with the final three outs of the game.

Our Los Angeles Angels vs Tampa Bay Rays Prediction
Get me the Angels at +118. Los Angeles are 7-3 SU in their last 10 games and 4-3 as road underdogs. Angels hurler Jose Soriano enters his third start this season with a 1-1 record and a 3.65 ERA. Soriano pitched a one-ball into the fifth inning the last time he started against the Rays in April 16, 2024. Averaging 6.5 runs per game in their last five games, the Angels would need a strong start to get them a solid lead to protect heading into the final innings, where their bullpen has allowed a 4.08 ERA in the said stretch. Tampa Bay pins their hope on Zach Littell, who squandered five earned runs over five innings in a 2-5 loss to the Rangers. Our betting prediction for Los Angeles Angels vs. Tampa Bay Rays: Angels will win.
