Ohtani pitches into 5th inning and triples, but O'Hoppe spurs Angels past Dodgers 6-5 for sweep
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Shohei Ohtani yielded four runs on five hits while pitching a season-high 4 1/3 innings, but Logan O'Hoppe delivered a two-run single in the eighth inning and the Los Angeles Angels swept the season Freeway Series with a 6-5 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night. Ohtani fanned Mike Trout twice among his seven strikeouts. He also tripled and scored in the first inning, but struck out in his final three at-bats. Will Smith hit a two-run homer and Mookie Betts had two RBI singles for the defending World Series champion Dodgers, who have lost four straight. They've fallen into second place in the NL West behind the San Diego Padres, who arrive at Dodger Stadium on Friday for a weekend series. The sub-.500 Angels improbably swept both three-game series against the Dodgers this season. They've won a franchise-record seven straight over their crosstown rivals. Ohtani mostly looked sharp in his first trip to the Angel Stadium mound since he left it with what turned out to be a torn elbow ligament in August 2023. He gave up a homer to Taylor Ward in the second, but settled in until the fifth. Ohtani left with a 5-4 lead, and the Dodgers' beleaguered bullpen nearly made it stand up despite having five high-leverage arms on the injured list. One inning earlier, Angels rookie Bryce Teodosio robbed Andy Pages of a homer with a leaping catch in right-center. Brock Burke (6-1) pitched the eighth, and Kenley Jansen got his 23rd save. Key moment After the Angels loaded the bases in the eighth against Justin Wrobleski (4-4) and Edgardo Henriquez, O'Hoppe put the Angels ahead with his clutch single. Key stat Ohtani has 15 strikeouts over his last 8 1/3 innings. Up next Clayton Kershaw (6-2, 3.14 ERA) seems likely to take the mound Friday against San Diego. Yusei Kikuchi (6-7, 3.37) will start Friday in West Sacramento for the Angels. ___ AP MLB:

College shares £100m building trades training cash
A college in Wigan will be one of 10 in the country that have been chosen to train a new generation for work in the building industry. Wigan and Leigh College will take a share of a £100m funding post aimed to getting thousands of new bricklayers, electricians and carpenters and other trades into the workforce. Lisa Nandy, the MP for Wigan, said there had been "under-investment" in young people who did not want to pursue academic further education. The Construction Industry Training Board estimated 61,000 new workers were needed each year to hit the government's target of 1.5 million new homes by 2030. Every region in England will have a specialist college called a Construction Technical Excellence College. They will train about 40,000 construction learners by 2029 between them. Wigan and Leigh College principal, Anna Dawe, said construction was "pivotal" to the economy in Wigan and Greater Manchester. "This accolade really resonates for a college that started life as a Technical Mining College over 100 years ago, in a borough that now has double the national rate of employment in the construction sector." MP Nandy said the investment was a "vote of confidence in young people". She added: "There are great jobs out there for bricklayers, electricians, carpenters, but for too long the system has been underinvested in and too confusing if your not going down a purely academic route. "Too many young people have been written off from making the contributions they know they can make, as a government we are determined to change this."
