Contributions throughout lineup drive Angels

ANAHEIM -- Sure, the Angels offense in 2015 has been a lot of Mike Trout and Albert Pujols. But it's a game like Tuesday's, when Trout didn't even play and Pujols didn't have to play the full nine, that shows how varied the contributions are becoming.

Trout missed his first game of the season with a sore left heel in the series opener against the Twins at Angel Stadium, and the Angels still won, 7-0. Pujols passed up a scheduled day off with his younger half out of the lineup, and the Angels were able to lift him early for a pinch-runner in the seventh inning.
