Despite another quality outing from starter Matt Waldron, the Padres' offense could not generate the necessary run support.
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Jo Adell doubled and scored the tiebreaking run on two flyouts in the eighth inning, and the Los Angeles Angels snapped their five-game losing streak with a 2-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Monday night.
Adell opened the eighth with a double off the right-field wall against Adrian Morejon . Adell moved to third on Zach Neto’s flyout and scored easily on pinch-hitter Luis Guillorme’s long sacrifice fly to center. Both starting pitchers excelled in the opener of a series between interleague rivals separated by about 90 miles of the I-5 freeway.
Anderson allowed five hits and three walks for Los Angeles. He has permitted exactly one run in each of his past four starts, totaling 26 2/3 innings.
