Merrill Kelly allowed one run on one hit over five innings en route to his eighth win of the season and Jose Herrera hit a check-swing two-run double to lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 5-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday afternoon in Anaheim, Calif.
Kelly (8-5) walked four and struck out six and left after throwing 98 pitches, 58 of which were strikes. John Curtiss, Kevin Ginkel and Kendall Graveman combined for four shutout innings of relief while allowing a combined two hits.
Blaze Alexander went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI and a run scored and Geraldo Perdomo scored two runs for Arizona, which snapped a three-game losing streak.
Zach Neto had a single, two walks and a stolen base and Mike Trout also reached base three times with an RBI single and two walks for Los Angeles, which had a two-game win streak snapped and missed an opportunity to get back to the .500 mark at the All-Star break. Jose Soriano (6-7) suffered the loss, allowing five runs (one earned) on five hits over five innings. He walked three and struck out three.
Los Angeles took a 1-0 lead in the third inning when Neto walked, tagged up and went to second on a flyout by Nolan Schanuel and then scored on a line single to left by Trout.
Arizona took advantage of an error by third baseman Yoan Moncada to score four unearned runs in the fourth to build a 4-1 lead. Perdomo led off with a walk and went to second on a single by Josh Naylor. Eugenio Suarez then hit a routine double-play grounder that glanced off Moncada's glove and went into left field, allowing Perdomo to tie the game. Two outs later, Alexander gave the Diamondbacks a 2-1 lead with a single, and Jose Herrera followed with a two-run opposite-field double down the left field line.
Arizona extended the lead to 5-1 in the fifth inning when Perdomo walked and scored on a bloop double to right by Suarez.
