Freddie Freeman's walk‑off homer gives Dodgers 1‑0 win over Angels

Freddie Freeman hit a walk‑off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning, securing a 1‑0 victory for the Los Angeles Dodgers over the Los Angeles Angels at Dodger Stadium. The homer ended a tight pitcher’s duel; Dodgers starter Roki Sasaki threw a career‑high ten strikeouts over seven scoreless innings, lowering his ERA to 4.03. Freeman’s blast was his sixth walk‑off for the Dodgers (eighth in his career) and clinched the fourth consecutive win against the Angels this season.

The game also featured a one‑handed defensive play by second baseman Miguel Rojas and a Pride Night tribute to LGBTQ+ baseball pioneers Billy Bean and Glenn Burke, with a permanent display unveiled in the stadium’s center‑field plaza.
