With the Angels up by six runs in the ninth, reliever Matt Ramsey made his long-awaited Major League debut after 201 career appearances in the Minors. Ramsey, signed to a Minor League deal before the season, threw a perfect frame, ending the game with a strikeout of Mike Ford.

Ramsey’s wife, Kirsten, and grandmother were at the game, and he received the game ball from the strikeout after the game from catcher Jonathan Lucroy.

"It was unbelievable,” Ramsey said. “That was a really fun experience. It was the most fun I've ever had. I've had some untimely injuries that probably kept me out of making my debut. I kept grinding and wasn't going to give up on myself."
