THE GAME: Shortstop Zach Neto injured his left hand on a head-first slide at home<\/a> in the sixth inning of the Angels\u2019 6-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Saturday at Tempe Diablo Stadium. Neto, who was tagged out when trying to score from first on a double down the left-field line, was set to undergo more tests after the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the beginning I was super concerned, then when I went back in the dugout and looking at him, it was a little more optimistic,\u201d Manager Kurt Suzuki said. \u201cWe\u2019ll see when I go back and get an update from the guys about how he\u2019s doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Neto hurt his shoulder twice on head-first slides, including once that required surgery<\/a> after the 2024 season. He said last year he would try to slide feet-first<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PITCHING REPORT: Right-hander Walbert Ure\u00f1a pitched three scoreless innings, striking out four. He ended the first and third innings with strikeouts, both times stranding runners in scoring position. Ure\u00f1a\u2019s fastball averaged 98 mph and topped at 100 mph. Ure\u00f1a got the start because the Angels chose to have Jos\u00e9 Soriano pitch in a minor-league game instead of facing the Mariners. \u2026 Left-hander Brent Suter worked two innings and allowed one run. \u2026 Right-hander Sam Bachman pitched a scoreless inning, striking out two. Bachman has not allowed a run in 6\u2154 innings this spring, with 12 strikeouts.<\/p>\n

HITTING REPORT: Mike Trout snapped an 0-for-11 streak with a double in the first inning. Trout is hitting .207 (6 for 29) with a .568 OPS this spring. \u2026 Nolan Schanuel tripled off the fence in right center. It was Schanuel\u2019s second extra-base hit of the spring. He\u2019s hitting .259 (7 for 27) with a .745 OPS this spring. \u2026 Josh Lowe struck out twice and walked. It was his first big-league game since suffering an oblique injury more than two weeks ago. \u2026 Logan O\u2019Hoppe had a single and a double down the left-field line. O\u2019Hoppe is hitting .294 (10 for 34) with a 1.032 OPS this spring. \u2026 Oswald Peraza singled and doubled off the fence in left-center, barely missing a homer. Peraza is hitting .351 (13 for 37) with a 1.076 OPS this spring. He has eight extra-base hits.<\/p>\n

DEFENSE REPORT: Peraza, the second baseman, made a leaping catch of a line drive to end the fourth inning. Peraza also came up short trying to stop a sharp one-hopper that got into the outfield, allowing the Mariners\u2019 first run of the game. \u2026 O\u2019Hoppe threw out a runner trying to steal second. \u2026 Center fielder Bryce Teodosio made a nice sliding catch in the gap in left-center.<\/p>\n
