ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -Howie Kendrick’s two-run, inside-the-park homer Friday night helped the Los Angeles Angels to a 4-1 victory and put a stop to the Kansas City Royals’ six-game win streak.
In his third start of the season, Angels rookie and Missouri native Matt Palmer picked up his third victory. Palmer allowed one run on two hits in 5 1-3 innings, giving him one earned run allowed in each of his last two outings.
After moving a season-low five games under .500 on April 25, the Angels have won eight of their last 11. They also have won five of their last six.
The AL Central-leading Royals lost for just the second time since April 28.
