ANAHEIM -- The All-Star break wasn't enough to cure the Angels of their ails against left-handed pitching.

Keuchel allowed only a walk to David Fletcher through the first six innings before Justin Upton smoked a 101.8-mph line drive off the glove of a leaping Marwin Gonzalez with two outs in the seventh. Official scorer Ed Munson ruled the play a single, breaking up Keuchel's no-hit bid.
