ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — With Mike Trout and Albert Pujols leading the way, the Los Angeles Angels are still in the chase for a playoff spot.
Trout hit a leadoff triple in the ninth inning and scored on Pujols' tiebreaking single for a 2-1 victory Friday night in Texas, keeping the Rangers from clinching the AL West title that Los Angeles won last season.
"We can't lose anymore. Plain and simple," Trout said. "We've got to fight to the end ... try to get to the postseason."
