Shoemaker Throws 7 Solid Innings, Angels Beat A's 5-4
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Matt Shoemaker pitched seven solid innings, Jett Bandy and Jefry Marte hit home runs and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Oakland Athletics 5-4 on Tuesday night.
Khris Davis and Coco Crisp hit solo homers to give Oakland a 2-0 lead before the Angels scored five straight. Davis has 27 homers this season and eight since the All-Star break.
Oakland starter Sean Manaea (3-6) held the Angels in check until the fifth, when shortstop Andrelton Simmons singled before Bandy drilled a two-run homer to tie it.
A walk and an error by shortstop Marcus Semien preceded a three-run homer by Marte in the sixth that went deep into the Angels' bullpen.
Shoemaker (6-11) allowed two runs, six hits and three walks. He has a 1.03 ERA in his last seven starts at home.
Cam Bedrosian struck out the side in the ninth to earn his first career save.
