LA Dodgers vs LA Angels prediction

Kenta Maeda (3-2 with a 2.30 ERA) will start for Los Angeles Dodgers, who ended a three-game winning streak with a 2-5 loss against the Cardinals yesterday.The right-hander had problems in his last two starts at "Dodger Stadium", allowing 13 hits and 8 runs over 11 2/3 innings of a 3-5 loss to Miami on April 28 and 3-4 loss to New York Mets last Wednesday.However, he's allowed two or fewer runs and lasted at least six innings in each of his other five starts this season.The Angels will give the ball to Matt Shoemaker (1-5 with a 9.12 ERA), who gave up at least four earned runs and lasted less than five innings in each of his last three starts.Shoemaker yielded 6 hits and 2 runs, while striking out five over six innings in a lone start against the Dodgers on Aug. 6, 2014 (1-2), but is 3-5 with a 6.08 ERA in his last eight road contests.I think that Los Angeles Dodgers will win the opening game of this series.
