    Los Angeles (53-69) defeated Atlanta (64-58), 3-2, on Friday at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California.

    Former Tennessee pitcher Ben Joyce recorded his second save of the season for the Angels. He pitched 1.2 innings, recording one strikeout and did not allow a hit, run or walk. Joyce totaled 14 pitches, including 10 strikes.

    The former Vol also wore Tennessee checkerboard cleats in the game.

    Joyce was a third-round selection by the Angels in the 2022 MLB draft.

    He played for the Vols from 2021-22 after transferring from Walters State Community College. Joyce did not play in 2021 due to rehabbing from offseason surgery.

    He appeared in 27 games and started one contest during his final season at Tennessee in 2022. Joyce totaled 53 strikeouts in 32.1 innings pitched during the 2022 campaign.
