LA Pro Sports Update

Rams win first game of the year by surprising Seahawks, Dodgers keep San Francisco at bay.

NFL

L.A. Rams– In their return to Los Angeles, the Rams scored three field goals off kicker Greg Zuerlein to upend the Seattle Seahawks 9-3 on Sept. 18. L.A. linebackers Mark Barron and Alec Ogletree shut down the Seattle quarterback, Russell Wilson, with 19 tackles between them. The defense still has kinks to smooth out, as the secondary gave up several big plays to Seattle receiver Tyler Lockett. The Rams play the 1-1 Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road on Sunday.

Player of the week: LB Alec Ogletree: 8 Solo Tackles, 9 Total

L.A. Angels– After getting swept by the Seattle Mariners, the Angels split a weekend four-game series with the Toronto Blue Jays. After that series, L.A. unfortunately dropped the series against the Texas Rangers. Despite the rough week, star outfielder Mike Trout continued to show why he deserves MVP consideration.

L.A. Dodgers– The Dodgers began the week with a series split against the Arizona Diamondbacks, followed by a vital series win against the San Francisco Giants.

About the Contributor
Kyle Kohner, Copy Editor & Office Manager
Amid his final year with the Chimes, Kyle is a four-year vet of the publication. Before this year, Kyle began his tenure like most at the Chimes—as a freelancer and an apprentice. He’s also held positions as the online editor and the A&E staff writer in the past. He also demands that you all go watch the movie “Hereditary.” Hello there! My name is Kyle Kohner, born and raised in San Bernardino, California. I am a senior journalism student at Biola University and a self-proclaimed film buff and music addict. A movie and music critic by trade, I am a firm believer that watching film and listening to music go hand-in-hand. Because the two mediums make the world go round and humanity sane, I see it is as my job and passion to discern the good from the bad within the differing yet kindred realms of entertainment. Aside from passion for the arts, it is probably worth noting that I am the Chimes’ office manager and copy editor. I, alongside Victoria try to make sure that the content produced by this publication are without flaws. If you see an article containing the wrong usage of “they’re” or “Its,” it’s probably my fault. Outside of the Chimes, I can be seen—you guessed it—listening to music and watching movies. But I also have a deep passion for street photography.
