C.J. Cron powers Angels to 13-5 win over Rays

C.J. Cron homered twice and drove in four runs, and the Los Angeles Angels overcame another shaky start by Tim Lincecum to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 13-5 on Tuesday night for just their third win in 15 games.

Cron had a solo shot off Jake Odorizzi (3-4) during a four-run second and a three-run drive against Enny Romero in a six-run ninth, his second multihomer game in four days. He had six hits, including a pair of homers, in Saturday's 21-2 win at Boston.

Andrelton Simmons had three RBIs, including a two-run double in a three-run sixth.
