Taylor's 2-run double in 8th sends Dodgers past Angels 5-3

Chris Taylor broke an eighth-inning tie with a two-run double and the Los Angeles Dodgers rallied for a 5-3 victory over the Los Angeles Angels

Designated for assignment Bemboom was designated for assignment by the Angels on Saturday.

Impact Bemboom had been serving as a depth option at the Triple-A level, but the Angels evidently like Chad Wallach more in the third-catcher role, as they claimed him off waivers from the Dodgers in a corresponding move. Bemboom is a 31-year-old with a career .178/.241/.287 line in 144 major-league plate appearances, so he's unlikely to be a hot commodity on the waiver wire.

Sent down Thursday Bemboom was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Impact Bemboom served as a third option behind the dish recently and went 1-for-8 with a run, an RBI and four strikeouts across two games during his stint with the major-league club. He'll head back to the minors after right-hander Chris Rodriguez (shoulder) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Thursday.

JUNE 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Called up by Angels Bemboom was recalled by the Angels on Friday.

Impact Bemboom will join the Angels as a third option behind the plate while Max Stassi (concussion) is sidelined. Jose Iglesias (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Clear of back issue Bemboom was activated by Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Impact The backstop had been out while dealing with an injured back, but he returned to the lineup and smacked an RBI triple for the Bees on Thursday. Bemboom has logged 20 at-bats with the big club this season, collecting five hits and one RBI.

MAY 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dealing with back issue Bemboom's back recently "locked up," preventing the catcher from being able to play, Fabian Ardaya of The Athleticreports.

Impact This information helps explain why the Angels did not go to Bemboom when starting catcher Max Stassi went on the seven-day injured list Thursday due to a concussion. It's unclear how long Bemboom has been dealing with the bad back or how much longer he'll be on the shelf, but the issue is substantial enough that the Angels traded for veteran Drew Butera on Friday to provide catching depth.

Back in majors Bemboom was recalled prior to Tuesday's game in Kansas City.

Impact Max Stassi (sprained thumb) hit the 10-day injured list, so Bemboom is coming up to serve as the No. 2 catcher in the short term while Kurt Suzuki moves atop the depth chart.

APRIL 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Part of team's taxi squad Bemboom is travelling with the Angels on their current road trip as part of the team's taxi squad, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact As the presumptive third catcher on the Angels' depth chart, Bemboom will likely be part of the taxi squad often this season. Should either Max Stassi or Kurt Suzuki go down with injury, Bemboom would be the logical replacement on the big-league roster.

APRIL 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down to minors Bemboom was optioned by the Angels on Wednesday.

Impact Bemboom was not expected to break camp with the club and struggled at the plate this spring, slashing .150/.190/.150. He'll open the campaign in the minors with Max Stassi and Kurt Suzuki locked into the top two spots on the team's catching depth chart.

MARCH 25, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Struggling this spring Bemboom is slashing .111/.158/.111 across nine Cactus League games.

Impact The backstop has struck out only twice in 18 at-bats, but that's about the only positive that can be made of his stat line. Bemboom is third on the Angels' catching depth chart and is likely to open the season in the minors.

MARCH 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Hits third homer Bemboom went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Padres on Wednesday.

Impact Bemboom got the start at catcher and slotted into the eighth spot in the order. He capped a three-homer third inning for the Angels with a solo shot to right field. The 30-year-old is slashing .217/.327/.435 with three homers in 57 plate appearances this season.
