Mark Trumbo homered and had three RBIs and the Los Angeles Angels moved within 2 1/2 games of first-place Texas in the American League West with a 7-3 victory over the visiting Seattle Mariners on Monday.
Vernon Wells also homered and Torii Hunter had two RBIs as Los Angeles won its third straight contest while picking up a game on the Rangers, who lost to Tampa Bay earlier Monday.
Dan Haren (14-8) gave up three runs in six innings while breaking a two-game losing streak. Haren gave up 10 hits but didn’t walk a batter for the 12th time in 30 starts.
