The Angels took a moment before their game to recognize Zach Neto for his A.L. Player of the Week award, the club announced on its official account.

The honor followed a week in which Neto batted .500 with 4 doubles, a triple, 2 home runs, and 9 RBI over 6 games, leading all of MLB with 14 hits — per a previously reported Posterior item.

The in-game recognition adds a small ceremonial note to what has otherwise been a busy stretch for the Angels roster. The club activated Yusei Kikuchi off the 60-day IL, placed first baseman Nolan Schanuel on the 10-day IL with a right intercostal strain, and activated Christian Moore. Michael Fulmer, meanwhile, went unclaimed on waivers and elected free agency after being DFA'd.

Amid all of that roster churn, Neto's week at the plate stood as a clean, uncomplicated bright spot — the kind the club was apparently happy to pause and acknowledge.
