Waltersson Hits 2 home runs in Angels Win
Bjoern Waltersson left his imprint on the 7-3 California win against the Texas Rangers. Waltersson went 2-3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. The winning pitcher was Gus Morante. He tossed 77 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 1 run on 4 hits. The first-place Angels, at 67-52, now lead their division by 6½ games.

Nick Dunn dealt the Rangers a blow in the bottom of the second. Batting with the bases loaded and California leading 1-0, Dunn hit a first pitch fastball for a 2-run double.

"No time for posing," said Waltersson. "The next game will be here before you know it."
