ANGELS GAME REPORT

THE GAME: The Angels managed just four hits in a 5-0 Cactus League loss to the Seattle Mariners on Thursday afternoon in Peoria, Arizona.

PITCHING: Right-hander Griffin Canning, who didn't walk any batters in his first two games, issued three walks in the first inning and had to be removed because of his pitch count. “Early on it looked like he was trying to overthrow his fastball,” manager Ron Washington said. “He was trying to get more mileage out of his fastball than he's got in his arm, which is why he was scattered.” One run scored in the inning. Canning re-entered in the second and walked another and gave up a hit, but he did not allow another run. He added a perfect third. “Obviously, it's gonna happen during the season so I gotta find a way to fight through it and kind of get back into my rhythm,” Canning said. “Four walks isn't cool, but the first two walks honestly, (Julio Rodriguez) and (J.P.) Crawford put up good at-bats. So it is what it is. Kind of got my rhythm there last inning.” HITTING: Mickey Moniak doubled down the right field line. Moniak is 7for 22(.318) with four extra-base hits this spring . ... Luis Rengifo went hitless in three at-bats. He missed the first two weeks of spring training games with a hamstring injury, and he hasn't had a hit in either of his first two games . ... Miguel Sanó was hitless in three atbats, with two strikeouts. A non-roster invitee trying to return to the big leagues for the first time since 2022, Sanó is 2for 23with 11strikeouts this spring . ... Jo Adell drew his first walk of the spring, in his 27th plate appearance. DEFENSE: Left fielder Tucker Flint made a leaping catch at the fence just moments after he'd entered the game in the seventh inning . ... The Angels turned three double plays, all started by shortstop Livan Soto.
