The Angels overcame a 7-0 deficit against Seattle ace Felix Hernandez and tied the game for the second time on Erick Aybar’s run-scoring single in the eighth off Carter Capps (2-2). Yoervis Medina recorded two outs with the bases loaded before walking Callaspo on four pitches to force in Albert Pujols with the decisive run.
Scott Downs (1-2) retired Raul Ibanez with two on and two out in the top of the eighth and Ernesto Frieri struck out two in a perfect ninth for his 17th save in 18 opportunities. Mike Trout went 4-for-4 and is 17-for-37 in 10 games against the Mariners this season.
