Dodgers on Deck: Friday, May 15 at Angels
ANAHEIM, CA - AUGUST 11: Blake Snell #7 of the Los Angeles Dodgers poses for a photo with Zach Neto #9 prior to the game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Angels at Angel Stadium of Anaheim on Monday, August 11, 2025 in Anaheim, California.

But instead this will be Snell’s second start of the season.
After back spasms sidelined Tyler Glasnow a week ago , the Dodgers approached Snell about throwing his planned five innings and 75 pitches in the majors instead of for Class-A Ontario, which he was obviously eager to do. But the rust was there in his first game back, needing 77 pitches to complete three innings, and he allowed five runs in a loss to the Atlanta Braves . Jack Kochanowicz starts for the Angels, with his 3.
97 ERA and 5. 00 xERA through eight starts. He’s coming off his worst game of the season, with seven runs (six earned) allowed in four innings against the Blue Jays on Saturday in Toronto.
Before that, the right-hander had a 2. 17 ERA in his previous six starts. Friday game info Teams: Dodgers at Angels Ballpark: Angel Stadium, Anaheim Time: 6:38 p.
