Paris and Trout help Angels beat Cardinals 5-4 in 10 innings
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Kyren Paris hit a tying triple in the seventh inning, Nolan Schanuel gave Los Angeles its first lead with a grounder in the 10th and the Angels held off the St. Louis Cardinals 5-4 on Monday night.
Mike Trout had two RBIs for the Angels, who scored three runs on sacrifice flies and finally went ahead in the 10th without a hit. After two walks loaded the bases, Schanuel sent a chopper to second baseman Brendan Donovan, whose throw home was late as Luis Rengifo scored for a 4-3 lead.
Trout added a deep sac fly to center that scored Paris.
The Cardinals got a run in the bottom of the 10th when Victor Scott II hit a sacrifice fly. Los Angeles reliever Ryan Johnson, making his second major league appearance, earned his first save after striking out Masyn Winn.
