TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Jaff Dacker and Matt Clark each hit a solo homer during a three-run seventh inning to lead the San Diego Padres to a 6-3 win over Los Angeles in front of 9,562 fans — the Angels’ first home sellout of the spring.
Angels slugger Albert Pujols gave many of the fans their money’s worth with two hits in two at-bats with a sacrifice fly and an RBI. He narrowly missed a homer to left-center field in the sixth and settled for a double.
Padres left-hander Clayton Richard made his first appearance on the mound since last July 4 and allowed two hits and a run in two innings.
