The Los Angeles Angels hold a 2-0 series lead over AL West rival Houston Astros entering Sunday's finale at Daikin Park, driven by a 3-0 opening-day shutout featuring Mike Trout's homer and a 6-2 Friday victory with power from Trout, Josh Lowe, and Zach Neto exposing Houston's early offensive woes. Probable starters pit Angels righty Jack Kochanowicz, fresh off a strong spring, against Astros rookie Tatsuya Imai in his MLB debut after eight pro seasons in Japan. Angels miss third baseman Anthony Rendon (60-day IL, hip) and relievers Kirby Yates and Ben Joyce, while Astros lack closer Josh Hader (15-day IL, biceps) but boast home advantage and historical head-to-head edge. Early-season momentum favors L.A.'s bats amid unproven rotations.
