CLEVELAND — – Joey Cantillo<\/a> pitched six scoreless innings, rookie Travis Bazzana<\/a> capped a five-run third inning with a two-run double and the Cleveland Guardians<\/a> defeated the Los Angeles Angels<\/a> 7-2 on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Cantillo (3-1) allowed five hits, walked one and struck out four.<\/p>\n

Brayan Rocchio<\/a> put the Guardians ahead 2-0 when he greeted reliever Jose Fermin<\/a> with a single in the second inning after opener Brent Suter<\/a> was lifted.<\/p>\n

The Guardians had a five-run outburst in the third inning, taking advantage of four walks, to extend their lead to 7-0. David Fry<\/a> drew a bases-loaded walk and Daniel Schneemann<\/a> hit a two-run single before Bazzana capped the rally by lining his two-run double to center field. Bazzana was the first pick in the 2024 amateur draft<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The AL Central-leading Guardians improved to 28-4 against the Angels in Cleveland since the start of the 2014 season. The Angels also lost for the 16th time in their last 21 games.<\/p>\n

Kyle Manzardo<\/a> and Fry each had two hits for the Guardians, who drew a season-high 10 walks, including three by Rhys Hoskins<\/a>. The Angels got a pair of hits from Nolan Schanuel<\/a> and Jo Adell<\/a>, who also drove in a run with an eighth-inning single.<\/p>\n

Suter (1-2) was charged with two runs in 1 2\/3 innings. Alek Manoah<\/a> finished with five scoreless innings despite walking five batters.<\/p>\n

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt<\/a> missed his second straight game<\/a> because of a viral infection but is expected to be back in the dugout Tuesday night. Bench coach Tony Arnerich again served as acting manager.<\/p>\n

Up next<\/p>\n

Angels rookie RHP Walbert Urena<\/a> (1-3, 3.22 ERA) faces RHP Slade Cecconi<\/a> (2-4, 6.15) on Tuesday in the second of the three-game series.<\/p>\n
