The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, or Angels for short, are an American professional baseball team based in the city of Anaheim, California, part of Orange County and the Los Angeles metropolitan area. The Angels compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) West division. The club has played its home games at Angel Stadium since 1966. The current MLB franchise was established as one of the league's first two expansion teams in 1961 by cowboy-actor Gene Autry, the team's first owner. The "Angels" name was taken by Autry in tribute to the original Los Angeles Angels, a Minor League franchise in the Pacific Coast League (PCL), which played in South Central Los Angeles from 1903 to 1957. After a confusing period of renaming and marketing, the team has been called the Los Angeles Angels since 2020.
The Dodgers played against the Angels on the night when Kristin's report on caffeine was broadcast. The Angels won 8-7. This was due to the Dodgers having great batters but poor pitchers.
The Los Angeles Angels eagerly embraced the fad of traveling into the past to play against historic teams. The 2040 team traveled to 1905 to face off against the New York Giants on their home turf. The Angels won, 3-0.[1]
