Upton Returns with a First-Pitch Home Run in Angels Win
Justin Upton homered on the first pitch of his return from the injured list to spark a seven-run second inning as the Los Angeles Angels beat the Toronto Blue Jays 10-5. Mike Trout added a four-hit night with a solo homer, and Shohei Ohtani and Kole Calhoun also went deep. The Angels have now defeated Toronto in all four meetings this season. Toronto rookie Cavan Biggio hit two homers, while Randal Grichuk added a two-run shot in the seventh. Trout finished a triple shy of the cycle. Upton’s blast was his first at-bat homer since returning from turf toe. The win snapped a rough stretch for Toronto, who dropped to 8-11 in their past 19.
