Angels starter José Soriano (6-6) did not give up a hit through three innings. With a 1-0 lead, he threw two strikes to Seager to open the fourth before throwing seven straight balls and walking Seager and Marcus Semien.

Soriano regularly hit 100 mph with his fastball. Combined with his slider and knuckle curve, Soriano has a repertoire the Angels wanted to see as a starter.

José Soriano gives up one run in 7⅔ innings and Luis Rengifo delivers a two-run single as the Angels defeat Seattle for their sixth win in eight games.

The Angels' José Soriano is extremely talented and controllable, so apparently the Red Sox are targeting him. The Angels would get an absolute haul for Soriano.
