L.A. Rams: With four seconds left in the fourth quarter and Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston driving the Bucs offense inside the Rams’ 15 yard line, Los Angeles’ defensive end Robert Quinn tackled Winston from behind and saved a possible game-winning touchdown. The Rams held off a furious Buccaneers fourth quarter comeback that saw Tampa Bay cut their lead down from 31-20 to 37-32. With the Rams’ 37-32 win, they move to 2-1 on the year and hold the division lead in the NFC West.

MLB

L.A. Dodgers: The Dodgers swept a four game set against division-rival Colorado Rockies to begin the week. Los Angeles backup infielder and ex-Rockie Charlie Culberson hit a walk-off home run on Sept. 25 to seal the deal and help the Dodgers clinch the NL West division title. The beloved Vin Scully called the dramatic finale of the series sweep as his final game as the Dodgers’ color commentator. The Dodgers hit the road on Sept. 27 for a matchup against the San Diego Padres with the division title already in hand. The Dodgers could not keep their winning momentum as they lost 7-1. All of the Padres’ runs came off the bat of rookie outfielder and highly touted prospect Hunter Renfroe.

Player of the Week: Broadcaster Vin Scully: Concluded an astonishing 66-year career as the Dodgers broadcaster.

L.A. Angels: The Angels played a superb week of baseball, winning three out of four games against the Houston Astros. Rookie catcher Jefry Marte hit a grand slam in front of his parents in their first time seeing him play American baseball. The Angels won two straight against the Oakland Athletics, including a gem pitched by Ricky Nolasco on Sep. 27. It marked the second straight quality start for the right-handed Nolasco.

Player of the Week: Pitcher Ricky Nolasco: 2W(8-14),15 innings, 10 H, 1 R, 0 ER, 3 BB, 9K

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.
