Infield fly and interference call loom large during 1st inning of Yankees-Angels game

Associated Press  

ANAHEIM, Calif. — An infield fly and interference call loomed large in a game for the second time in less than a week. Umpires called an infield fly, but Soto bumped into Angels shortstop Zach Neto with his hip as he tried to get back to second base, causing Neto to lose track of the ball and it landing in the infield.
