Nolan Schanuel's first career walk-off hit gives Angels 2-1 10-inning win over Athletics
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Nolan Schanuel hit a single into shallow center field in the 10th inning for the first walk-off hit of his career to drive in Jo Adell and give the Los Angeles Angels a 2-1 win over the Athletics on Tuesday night.
Reid Detmers (2-2) struck out two of three batters to strand the automatic runner in the top of the 10th.
Hogan Harris (1-1) took the loss for the A's, who have lost 22 of 26 games.
The Angels trailed 1-0 in the bottom of the eighth when Travis d'Arnaud hit A's left-hander T.J. McFarland's first pitch for a pinch-hit homer and a 1-1 tie.
Angels starter José Soriano allowed one run and two hits and struck out a career-best 12 in seven innings. He walked two. He threw a career-high 110 pitches, 71 for strikes, and induced 22 swinging strikes.
The A's Mitch Spence, making his second start since being moved from the bullpen, gave up three hits, struck out four and walked none in five scoreless innings.
Soriano was virtually untouchable through five no-hit innings in which he racked up nine strikeouts and walked one. He lost his no-hit bid in the sixth when Brent Rooker drove an RBI double to left-center field just beyond the reach of a diving Adell for a 1-0 A's lead.
Key Moment
Veteran right-hander Hunter Strickland, who signed a minor league deal on May 6, escaped a runner-on-second, no-out jam in the eighth and has not allowed a run in 11 innings over nine appearances with the Angels.
Key Stat
D'Arnaud's eighth-inning shot was the second pinch-hit homer of his career. His first came for the Atlanta Braves against the Colorado Rockies on Sept. 4, 2021.
Up Next
Athletics LHP JP Sears (5-5, 5.21 ERA) will oppose Angels RHP Kyle Hendricks (2-6, 5.34 ERA) in Wednesday's series finale.

Giants rally again to beat lowly Rockies 10-7 for 7th straight win
DENVER (AP) — Mike Yastrzemski's two-run double in the eighth inning keyed another San Francisco rally, and the Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 10-7 on Wednesday night for their seventh straight victory. Willy Adames homered and drove in three early runs for the Giants, but they trailed 6-3 entering the eighth before coming back against reliever Tyler Kinley (0-3). Adames, Heliot Ramos and Dominic Smith singled to load the bases with one out, and Casey Schmitt walked to bring in a run. Yastrzemski then lined a double off the right-center wall to tie it. Tyler Fitzgerald laid down a bunt against Zach Agnos, and Schmitt slid around the tag of catcher Hunter Goodman with the go-ahead run. Schmitt was initially ruled out but the call was overturned following a replay review. San Francisco added three insurance runs in the ninth on Wilmer Flores' sacrifice fly, and RBI singles by Schmitt and Yastrzemski. Goodman hit his 11th homer in the bottom half and the Rockies had two runners on when Orlando Arcia grounded back to closer Camilo Doval for the final out. Tristan Beck (1-0) tossed three innings of relief for the win. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. ___ AP MLB:

Katzberg captures 5th straight hammer throw win of season, topping 80 metres in Norway
Social Sharing Ethan Katzberg wasn't a model of consistency Wednesday, but he only needed one throw to win his fifth consecutive men's hammer throw competition to start the 2025 season. The reigning world and Olympic champion from Nanaimo, B.C., was the lone athlete in the field of seven to surpass 80 metres, throwing 80.19 in his third of six attempts at the Bislett Games Diamond League track and field meet in Oslo, Norway. Katzberg, 23, came close to the 81.92 meet record by 36-year-old Wojciech Nowicki of Poland who was seventh (72.65) on a mostly sunny Wednesday at Bislett Stadium, where the temperature reached 17 C. "I think I had a good result, maybe could have [had] a little more," said Katzberg. "I have been over here in Europe for a while now, so this is my last competition here and I am returning home." Katzberg, who was third in Oslo two years ago, arrived at the stadium Wednesday fresh off an 80.15 performance at the June 3 Trond Mohn Games in Norway. On May 31, the world's top-ranked men's hammer thrower was victorious at the Kip Keino Classic in Nairobi, Kenya, delivering a season-best and world-leading 82.73. Canada's Katzberg captures World Athletics Continental Tour hammer throw victory 11 days ago Duration 0:46 Ukraine's Mykhalo Kokhan made is a close competition Wednesday with a 79.95 final throw for second, after the Canadian's 79.74 effort. "I managed to throw almost 80 metres, but still, I was missing that five centimetres and it is only 79, so I cannot be super satisfied with my result," Kokhan said after his fifth event of the season. "I had to start the sixth attempt faster and it was a right decision. 'All-or-nothing day' Hometown favourite Thomas Mardal fouled four times but began his day with a personal-best throw of 78.25 to place third. "Today was an all-or-nothing kind of day," he said. "I have been consistently throwing over 77 metres this season, so I have been looking for 78 and I love throwing at Bislett [Stadium]. "It was special for me as I had my dad and wife here. At the end of the month I hope to represent Norway at the European Team Champs and after that it is all eyes on Tokyo [and the Sept. 13-21 worlds]." Hammer throw is not contested regularly on the Diamond League professional circuit, so athletes do not accumulate points toward qualifying for the Diamond League Final in late August. Katzberg admitted to feeling "a little drained" but still worked hard for a good result. "Technically, it could have been a little more today," he said, "but it is what it is and I am going home to prepare for the rest of the season." Katzberg opened Wednesday at 76.17 and then fouled before eclipsing 80 metres. He threw 77.33 on his fourth attempt and hasn't thrown 76- and 77-low since early in the 2023 campaign. Katzberg also fouled on his fifth try. Last August in Paris, Katzberg became Canada's first Olympic hammer throw champion and earned the country's first medal in the event since 1912. At 22, he was the youngest-ever Summer Games hammer gold medallist. His winning throw of 84.12 was 26 cm short of the national and area (North and Central America and Caribbean) mark of 84.38 he hit in April 2024 at a meet in Nairobi. A year earlier, Katzberg was the first Canadian to win a world title in hammer throw, a few days ahead of teammate Camryn Rogers's victory in the women's event in Budapest, Hungary. Next for Katzberg is the July 5 Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Ore.
