ANAHEIM — The Los Angeles Angels found themselves on the wrong side of three close losses to open their four-game series against the Seattle Mariners.
The Angels were able to turn the tables in the finale on Sunday, but not without a bit of trepidation late.
Tommy La Stella hit two home runs and the Angels held on for an 8-6 win over the Mariners on Sunday to end a six-game losing streak.
The Angels led 8-1 going into the ninth inning before Tom Murphy cracked a two-run homer with one out off Noe Ramirez, and Dee Gordon immediately followed it up with a solo home run to right.
