C.J. Wilson Throws 1-Hitter For Angels In Win Over A's

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- C.J. Wilson and Ernesto Frieri combined on a one-hitter and the Los Angeles Angels broke out of their offensive slump in a 4-0 win over the Oakland Athletics on Tuesday night.

Albert Pujols homered for the third time in seven days while Mark Trumbo and Howie Kendrick both had RBI singles for the Angels, who had scored only five runs in their previous three games combined.

A day after losing its third consecutive one-run game, Los Angeles took a four-run lead after three innings and coasted the rest of the way to give Wilson (5-4) his first win in nearly three weeks.

Cliff Pennington had the only hit -- a one-out single in the fifth -- for Oakland, which had won five of the previous seven meetings between the teams this season.
