ANAHEIM, Calif. \u2014 Andy Pages hit a three-run homer, eight relievers combined on a two-hitter and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Los Angeles Angels 6-0 on Friday night to secure their first three-game winning streak in May.<\/p>\n

Max Muncy followed Pages’ shot with a solo homer in the third inning, and Teoscar Hern\u00e1ndez added a two-run shot in the sixth during the Dodgers’ dominant victory to open the latest Freeway Series between the back-to-back World Series champions and the team with the majors’ worst record.<\/p>\n

Will Klein threw two scoreless innings to open a bullpen game after the Dodgers scratched Blake Snell and put him on the injured list with loose bodies in his elbow a few hours before game time.<\/p>\n

Snell missed the first six weeks of the season with a shoulder injury, and the two-time Cy Young Award winner made just one start before getting sidelined again indefinitely.<\/p>\n

Seven relievers followed Klein with one inning apiece. Edgardo Henriquez (2-0) got the victory, and Charlie Barnes finished with a hitless ninth inning in his Dodgers debut.<\/p>\n

The Angels couldn’t get a runner past second base in the Dodgers’ fifth shutout victory of the season \u2014 and their second in three games. <\/p>\n

Jack Kochanowicz (2-3) yielded seven hits and six runs over six innings for the Halos, who have lost four straight and six of seven.<\/p>\n

Angels catcher Logan O’Hoppe left the game in the sixth inning with left wrist irritation after he appeared to get hurt in the field earlier in the night.<\/p>\n

Pages cleared the bases in the third with the 10th homer of his impressive season, delivering a 407-foot shot to center. Muncy followed three pitches later with his 12th homer.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1ndez ended his personal 23-game homer drought when he connected off Kochanowicz for his fifth of the year.<\/p>\n
