Jack Kochanowicz (3-10) took the loss. He gave up seven runs on 10 hits in three-plus innings.
The Tigers (68-51) took a 2-0 lead in the first, stringing together four straight two-out hits that included RBI singles by Riley Greene and Zach McKinstry.
Carpenter's sacrifice fly made it 3-0 in the second, and the Tigers added four more in the fourth.

Key stat: Carpenter has a .600 slugging percentage against right-handed pitchers since the start of 2024, the third highest in the majors. Shohei Ohtani (.688) and Aaron Judge (.682) are the leaders among players with at least 500 plate appearances against righties.
Up next: The Angels return for a three-game series with their crosstown rivals, the Dodgers. RHP Jose Soriano is scheduled to start Monday's opener.

LSU football pushing to flip five-star quarterback from SEC powerhouse
LSU football isn't giving up on the No. 1-ranked quarterback in the class of 2026. Per Rivals' Marcus Benjamin, LSU is still making its case to Texas commit Dia Bell. "They've always been there," Bell said of LSU. "I've always had a great relationship with Coach Sloan. He's still chipping away, trying to get me to come out, but I have not made any plans to visit LSU at this point," Bell said. According to the Rivals' Industry Rankings, Bell is the No. 4-ranked player in the country and No. 1-ranked quarterback. He's the top recruit in the state of Florida. Bell committed to Texas in June of 2024, and that pledge has held firm. The odds are stacked against the Tigers on this one, but Brian Kelly, Sloan, and staff aren't ready to throw in the towel. LSU is without a quarterback in its 2026 class after missing on top targets, including Bowe Bentley and Bryson Beaver. According to 247Sports, LSU's 2026 class ranks No. 8 in the country. LSU has secured commitments from two five-stars, wide receiver Tristen Keys and defensive tackle Lamar Brown, but the addition of Bell could launch LSU's class to another level. The Tigers remain in contention for the No. 1-ranked class in the country.

Shohei Ohtani hits into triple play, slams homer in Dodgers' loss to Angels
Shohei Ohtani had an adventurous few innings in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 7-6 extra-innings loss to the Angels in Anaheim on Tuesday, Aug. 12. In the sixth inning, Ohtani hit into a triple play. Three innings later, Ohtani hit a go-ahead home run, his 43rd of the season. With Miguel Rojas on second base and Dalton Rushing on first, Ohtani hit a liner up the middle that shortstop Zach Neto snagged. Neto then forced out Rojas at second and threw to first base to catch Rushing scrambling back to the bag. The third triple play of the 2025 season was the Angels' first triple play since Aug. 18, 2023 and the eighth in franchise history. With the score tied at 5-5 entering the ninth inning, Ohtani led off the inning with a home run off of Angels closer (and former Dodger) Kenley Jansen. Ohtani has hit home runs in four consecutive games. The Dodgers called on Alex Vesia to close out the game, but a bases-loaded sacrifice fly by Nolan Schanuel scored Luis Rengifo to tie up the game. The Angels held the Dodgers scoreless in the top of the 10th inning, and then won the game when Jo Adell's single scored the "ghost runner" Taylor Ward. Ohtani takes the mound Wednesday as the Dodgers will look to avoid a series sweep against the Angels. A three-game losing streak by the Dodgers has allowed the San Diego Padres to move into a first-place tie atop the NL West. The Dodgers host the Padres for a three-game series this weekend. 2025 MLB home run leaders Cal Raleigh, Seattle Mariners — 45 Shohei Ohtani, Los Angeles Dodgers — 43 Kyle Schwarber, Philadelphia Phillies — 42 Aaron Judge, New York Yankees — 38 Eugenio Suárez, Seattle Mariners — 37 This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Shohei Ohtani hit into a triple play, then hit a homer in Dodgers loss
