The Los Angeles Angels and starting pitcher Paul Erickson stifled the Kansas City offense en route to a comfortable 11-1 win at Kauffman Stadium. Erickson picked up the win for Los Angeles, going 7.1 innings. He gave up 1 run on 8 hits. He now sports a record of 9-2. The American League West-leading Angels are 48-24.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Zack Erstad? The Los Angeles left fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the first inning to put the Angels on top, 1-0. For the game, Erstad had 2 doubles and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Kansas City manager David Eckstein. "We got flat-out beat."
