Mickey Moniak hit a three-run homer, and Griffin Canning pitched 6 2/3 strong innings in the Los Angeles Angels’ 10-1 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday night.

Shohei Ohtani went 0 for 4, ending his two-game return to Angel Stadium with a 1 for 8 performance, including an RBI triple and two runs scored on Tuesday.

Taylor Ward homered for the third game in a row, and rookie Niko Kavadas also hit a home run. This was the Angels’ second win over the major league-leading Dodgers in their last 14 matchups. The teams split their four-game Freeway Series this season.

Bobby Miller (2-4) had another tough game for the Dodgers, who lost for just the fourth time in 16 games. He gave up seven runs on five hits, including three home runs, and walked three batters in five innings, despite striking out eight.

“It’s kind of hard to put into words, but recently I’ve been feeling really good, and I still felt really good today,” Miller said.

“Besides the first inning, there was a lot of good in there. Just a couple of good fastball hitters. Just a couple of bad pitch selections.”

Miller has been trying all summer to regain his impressive rookie form, and it seems less likely he will be part of the Dodgers’ postseason plans after giving up 17 earned runs in four starts since coming back from the minors to help with the team’s injury issues.

Manager Dave Roberts expressed disappointment in Miller, though he said Miller will start again next week.

“I don’t think they sequenced well tonight,” Roberts said about Miller and catcher Austin Barnes. “I don’t think they used his secondary pitches the right way to protect the fastball.”
