• The Angels and White Sox celebrated Armed Forces day on Saturday as both teams wore camouflage hats. The Angels also had camouflage numbers and lettering on their white home jerseys.

• A unique pregame ceremony took place before Saturday's game, with astronaut Buzz Aldrin raising an American flag previously flown at a North Kabul NATO base in Afghanistan.

• The Angels made another roster move on Saturday as they claimed infielder Chris Nelson off waivers from the Yankees. To make room for Nelson on the 40-man roster, Scott Cousins was designated for assignment.
