BOTTOM LINE: The Los Angeles Angels will try to keep a three-game home win streak alive when they play the Texas Rangers. Los Angeles is 28-25 in home games and 53-55 overall. The Angels have gone 36-10 in games when they scored five or more runs.

But in a game full of high and lowlights, the game took an extra turn in the bottom of the eighth inning when both benches and bullpens emptied after Rangers reliever Shawn Armstrong hit Zach Neto and Mike Trout with pitches, prompting an angry exchange between Angels interim manager Ray Montgomery and Texas manager Bruce Bochy.
