Angels cruise past O's after Trout's early HR

BALTIMORE -- Right-hander Felix Pena went 5 1/3 scoreless innings in his third career start and Andrelton Simmons had four hits as the Angels broke out for a 7-1 win over the Orioles to open a three-game set on Friday night at Camden Yards.

Mike Trout marked his return to center field by hitting his 24th homer of the season -- and first since June 12 -- off rookie starter David Hess (2-5).
