May 6, 2025; Anaheim, California, USA; Los Angeles Angels third baseman Yoan Moncada (5) runs after hitting a three run home run against the Toronto Blue Jays during the eighth inning at Angel Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images Yoan Moncada’s three-run home run highlighted a six-run eighth inning to lift the Los Angeles Angels to an 8-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays Tuesday night in Anaheim, Calif.
Moncada signed a one-year, $5 million contract to replace the injured Anthony Rendon at third base, but played in only eight games this season before a bruised right thumb sent him to the injured list on April 10.
Moncada was hitting .190 with no homers when he returned to the lineup Tuesday and made an immediate difference.
The Angels entered the eighth inning trailing 3-2 when Zach Neto walked and stole second. He scored and tied the game on an error by third baseman Ernie Clement, who couldn’t handle a throw from catcher Alejandro Kirk after fielding Nolan Schanuel’s bunt.
Two batters later, Blue Jays reliever Yimi Garcia was replaced by Jeff Hoffman, who yielded an RBI single by Logan O’Hoppe – the catcher’s third hit of the game — to put the Angels up 4-3. Moncada followed and hit the first pitch he saw from Hoffman into the right field seats for a 7-3 lead.
Jo Adell added a solo homer later in the inning to cap the scoring. Hector Neris (1-1), making his Angels debut, was one of three Los Angeles relievers and earned the win over Garcia (0-2).
George Springer and Anthony Santander homered for Toronto.
The Blue Jays got on the scoreboard in the first inning when Vladimir Guerrero Jr. singled off Angels starter Tyler Anderson with one out and scored on Springer’s two-out, two-run home run.
The Angels answered in the bottom of the first inning against Blue Jays starter Jose Urena, whom the Blue Jays signed Monday after he was released by the Chicago Cubs.
Neto led off the inning with a single and one out later stole second. Neto then scored on Taylor Ward’s two-run homer, tying the game at 2-2.
Anderson settled in and retired the Blue Jays in order in the third, fourth and sixth innings.
Anderson got a no-decision after throwing 6 2/3 innings and allowing two runs on six hits and one walk, striking out seven and making 93 pitches.

Felipe Melo indica time que provoca falsa esperança no Brasil
Felipe Melo em registro durante o programa "Seleção Sportv" (Reprodução - YouTube) Felipe Melo foi contundente ao questionar o desempenho do Atlético-MG, ao repercutir na noite desta quinta-feira (08), o revés da equipe frente ao modesto Deportes Iquique, pela Copa Sul-Americana, fora de casa. Na avaliação dele, o time de Cuca mais uma vez ficou devendo rendimento incisivo, dada a qualidade que ostenta em seu plantel, e tem provocado um efeito de ‘falsa esperança’ nesta primeira metade da temporada.

Mohamed Salah e Alessia Russo são eleitos jogador e jogadora da temporada no futebol inglês
Salah, que já coroado nas temporadas 2017/18 e 2021/22, iguala o recorde de Thierry Henry, três vezes escolhido Jogador do Ano em Inglaterra, quando atuava no Arsenal. Com 28 gols e 18 assistências na Premier League nesta temporada, o atacante foi um dos principais nomes do 20º título do Liverpool. O egípcio teve quase 90% dos votos, superando o seu companheiro Virgil van Dijk, o atacante Alexander Isak, do Newcastel, e o meia Declan Rice, do Arsenal. Aos 32 anos, Salah pôs fim às especulações sobre o seu futuro ao assinar um novo vínculo de dois anos, que o liga ao Liverpool até 2027.
