In honor of Vladimir Guerrero, the Angels reached out offensively and got a hold of something special. The Angels erased a 6-1 deficit with two runs in the seventh inning and four runs in the eighth inning, capped by Andrelton Simmons’ three-run home run. But Kole Calhoun, who hit a home run in the second inning, got it started with a single in the seventh, and Simmons followed with a double. Skaggs balked in a run in the second inning after he allowed two hits, including a double inside the first-base line to Jake Marisnick. George Springer hit a leadoff home run in the seventh inning, his career-high tying 29th, for a 6-1 lead.
