Angels Edge Cardinals 9-7 in 11 Innings, Start 4-1 Season

The Los Angeles Angels triumphed over the St. Louis Cardinals in a thrilling 11-inning game on April 1, winning 9-7. Kyren Paris delivered a critical tiebreaking single in the 11th, followed by a two-run double from Yoan Moncada, solidifying the Angels' lead. The game was tightly contested, remaining tied at 3 until both teams scored three runs in the 10th inning. Cardinals' pinch-hitter Luken Baker and Nolan Arenado responded with key hits to keep the game close, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Angels' late surge. This win marked the Angels' sixth consecutive victory in St. Louis, and they improved to 4-1 for the season. The Cardinals will look to rebound in the series finale on Wednesday with Sonny Gray on the mound against Yusei Kikuchi.
