ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Angels have brought some fun back to Angel Stadium. All it took was two series.Jefry Marte hit a three-run homer and the Angels shut down a late rally by the AL West-leading Texas Rangers in a 7-4 win Wednesday night that gave Los Angeles a three-game sweep.It was the second straight sweep for the Angels, who won their season-best sixth in a row and moved out of last place in the AL West.Were having fun and thats what we said a couple weeks ago: Just go into the second half, try to have fun and lets see what happens, starter Hector Santiago said. Right now its working.Whats happening for Los Angeles is greater offensive production than the team has seen all season. The Angels have scored a league-high 110 runs in July, matching their total from June with 10 games left to play this month.Albert Pujols had two hits and scored twice to spur the offense on Wednesday, while Yunel Escobar had two RBI and Marte hit his sixth home run.Its much more fun when youre scoring runs and winning, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. Its going to look like you have a lot more life.The Rangers rallied in the ninth inning when Ian Desmond homered, Adrian Beltre doubled and Ryan Rua singled to put runners on the corners with two outs. The rally fell short when Rougned Odor flew out to left field.Desmond went with 2 for 4 with the home run and Mitch Moreland hit his 13th homer, a solo shot to lead off the fourth inning. Desmonds homer came with two outs in the ninth off Huston Street, his team-leading 18th this season.This is a club thats not going to quit, they always continue to play, Rangers manager Jeff Bannister said. We were one more hit away, one more baserunner away from putting a little bit of pressure on their closer. Rua, I thought, put a pretty good swing on the ball and just missed it.The Angels got a run in the first inning before Marte connected on a 3-0 fastball from Martin Perez for a three-run homer. Escobar then drove Johnny Giavotella home with a single to right in the second inning, putting Los Angeles up 5-0.Santiago (8-4) pitched five innings for his third straight win, yielding three earned runs on five hits. His 24-inning scoreless streak ended in the third inning, when the Rangers scored twice to cut the Los Angeles lead to 5-3.He struggled with fastball command all night, Scioscia said. Maybe instead of pitching his way out with a changeup or changing speeds, he kept trying to throw harder. .. He settled in and made better pitches as he went on but it just didnt seem like he got in sync tonight.The Rangers scored in the third when Beltre tripled home Desmond and then scored on Ruas sacrifice fly.But Perezs shaky command resulted in another run for the Angels in the third. With runners on second and third and Jett Bandy at the plate, Perezs appeared to wobble in his delivery and was called for a balk, scoring Pujols.Perez (7-7) lost his third decision in as many games, giving up seven earned runs for the second time in July.The Rangers have gone 4-14 since June 28.TRAINERS ROOMRangers: 1B Prince Fielder and LF Shin-Soo Choo were both placed on the 15-day disabled list on Wednesday. Fielder was diagnosed with a herniated disk in his neck and Choo has been dealing with inflammation in his lower back. Infielder Hanser Alberto and outfielder Delino Shields were called up from Triple-A Round Rock to fill their roster spots.Angels: LHP Tyler Skaggs made his final start for Triple-A Salt Lake, completing his rehab from his 2014 Tommy John surgery. Skaggs threw 94 pitches over 5 2/3 innings, gave up one hit, walking three and striking out 12. Hes expected to rejoin the team later this week.UP NEXTRangers: RHP Yu Darvish will make his second start since coming off the disabled list Friday in Kansas City. Darvish, who is 2-1 with a 3.15 ERA in four starts this season, was on the DL from June 13 until July 16 with right shoulder discomfort.Angels: RHP Matt Shoemaker will take the hill in Houston following the Angels day off. The AL pitcher of the week is coming off his first complete game and shutout and is 1-1 with a 2.08 ERA in three starts against the Astros this season. Nike Air Vapormax China .

Cyber Monday Nike Air Vapormax . -- The Magic have their first victory of the new year. LINCOLN, Neb. -- Glynn Watson Jr.s head was hurting Sunday. But that didnt stop him from scoring a career-high 23 points to lead Nebraska past Sacramento State 83-61.Glynn actually tonight had a bad headache, said Nebraska coach Tim Miles. I dont know if it was a migraine or not. But we had to take him out two or three times and get him hydrated and make sure he got medicine. If he can do that in that condition ... hes really good. Glynn is a guy thats a game changer.Watson didnt mention the headache after the game. Rather, he attributed his scoring to aggressive play.I just tried to play aggressive and execute our game plan, Watson said. That was basically what I tried to do, was play aggressive and try to get my teammates open. I had open shots so I took them, that was basically it.Watson kept Nebraska (1-0) in the game in the first half, tying his career-high with 17 points on 7 of 10 shots. The rest of the Huskers were just 9 of 29 in the half, earning them a halftime butt chewing from Miles.Nebraska opened the second period with a 9-2 run, going up 45-35 on Tai Websters driving layup with 17:22 left. That opening spurt was the game changer, said Sacramento State coach Brian Katz.We had a pretty good first half and the separation happened in the first five points of the second half, Katz said. They got five points in transition and went from 36-33 to 41-33, and I thought that was the difference in the game. The Huskers hit 10 of 12 shots in the first eight minutes of the second half, taking a 58-44 lead on Websters jumper with 12:233 remaining.ddddddddddddI thought the second half was really good, Miles said. But they were pretty good early too. Unfortunately, we missed 12 shots within what, four feet in the first half. I was happy with the team. They came out and did what they had to do to win.Nebraska never trailed, but saw Sacramento State (0-2) tie the game at 31 on Jeff Wus basket with 2:01 left in the first half. Watson responded with a 3-point play to put the Huskers in the lead for good.THE BIG PICTURENebraska: Five of the 10 Huskers who took the floor Sunday were seeing their first action as Huskers. All five came off the bench. They scored just five points combined.Sacramento State: The Hornets hit 48 percent of their shots in the first half to stay close to the Huskers. But Sacramento State struggled from the field in the final 20 minutes, hitting just 9 of 26 attempts and only 2 of 12 from 3-point range.QUOTABLEMiles on Nebraskas first half play: We were just rushing on offense, there was no poise. It was like one, two passes and force your way in there. The reason we missed 12 shots (near the basket) was because they werent very good shots. You cant get an offensive rebound, puke on yourself, then try to put it back in there. It just seemed like we were playing mindless basketball.UP NEXTNebraska hosts the University of Mary, Miless alma mater, Tuesday.Sacramento State will host Antelope Valley Thursday in its home opener.
