Trout, Calhoun homer in Angels’ 6-2 win over Jays for sweep
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Before the Los Angeles Angels hit the road for a two-week, 11-game, two-nation trip, they added another solid win to their recent surge.
Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun homered, Tyler Skaggs pitched four-hit ball into the seventh inning and the Angels completed a three-game sweep of the Toronto Blue Jays with a 6-2 victory Thursday night.
Albert Pujols had two doubles for the Angels, who have won six of seven after losing nine of 10. They swept Toronto at Angel Stadium for the first time since April 2002, winning all three games with a combination of power hitting, resilient pitching and big plays in the field.
“It’s good to go out this way,” Pujols said. “We’ve been struggling on the road (4-10), so we just need to keep playing like we have been here.”
