Los Angeles Angels at Baltimore Orioles: Final Score & Recap

The Los Angeles Angels defeated the Baltimore Orioles 4-1 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on August 6, 2026, handing the home side a loss despite the DiamondIQ model's pre-game estimate placing Baltimore's win probability at 64 percent. The Angels produced all the offense they would need in the third inning, finishing with nine hits and committing no errors while Baltimore managed just four hits and was charged with one error across nine innings.

The decisive moment came in the top of the third when Zach Neto connected on a home run off Brandon Young, a swing that shifted win probability by plus 23.1 percent in Los Angeles's favor and stood as the game's single most impactful play by a wide margin. Baltimore responded in the bottom half of that same inning when Yohel Pozo hit a home run off Ryan Johnson to claw back 9.2 percent in win probability, briefly keeping the Orioles in range, but Jackson Holliday's groundout in the same frame cost Baltimore 8.7 percent and effectively stalled the rally. The Angels added an insurance run in the seventh and never relinquished the lead, with the DiamondIQ model's estimate reaching zero percent for a Baltimore victory by game's end.

Neto finished as the game's top performer by both metrics, posting a plus-23.1 percent WPA and a plus-2.4 RE24. On the Baltimore side, Gunnar Henderson and Coby Mayo were the most impactful hitters at plus-6.8 and plus-6.3 percent WPA respectively, though neither was enough to overcome the deficit. Ryan Johnson led all pitchers with a plus-17.3 percent WPA, followed by Luke Murphy at plus-9.8 and Mitch Farris at plus-7.0, as the Angels' pitching staff collectively held Baltimore to a single run across nine innings.
