SEATTLE -- Albert Pujols and C.J. Cron hit back-to-back home runs in the first inning and six relievers combined to shut down Seattle after starter Matt Shoemaker was hit in the head with a line drive, leading the Los Angeles Angels over the Mariners 4-2 on Sunday.Shoemaker was hit on the right side of his head with one out in the second inning on a line drive from Kyle Seager. Seagers liner had an exit velocity of 105 mph, according to MLB Statcast. Shoemaker was able to turn his head slightly to avoid a direct blow to his face but was unable to get his mitt up in time.The Angels announced Shoemaker suffered a laceration on the right side of his head, but was alert and responsive. He was taken to a local hospital for a CT scan.Shoemaker was down for several minutes and bleeding from the spot where he was hit. Teammates knelt around the mound and Seager anxiously watched while Shoemaker was tended to. Shoemaker never appeared to lose consciousness.The Angels took two of three in the series, providing another damaging blow to Seattles fleeting postseason hopes. The Mariners have dropped seven of eight with AL West-leading Texas coming in for a four-game series starting Monday, likely Seattles last opportunity to get back into the wild-card race.Pujols hit his 29th homer of the season off Seattle starter Hisashi Iwakuma (14-11) with two outs in the first and Cron followed with his 15th home run moments later. The Angels hit seven first-inning home runs in the three-game series.Pujols added an RBI single in the sixth inning off Iwakuma, and Andrelton Simmons had an RBI single in the eighth inning off reliever Dan Altavilla. Iwakuma went seven innings, giving up eight hits and the three runs.After Shoemaker walked off the field with trainers on both sides, the Angels leaned on their bullpen. Deolis Guerra (3-0) was the first of the relievers to enter, followed by Jose Alvarez, Mike Morin, Cody Ege and JC Ramirez. Robinson Cano hit his 31st homer off Ege in the sixth and Nelson Cruz hit his 35th in the eighth off Ramirez, both solo shots.But that was all the Angels allowed, and Andrew Bailey pitched the ninth for his first save.ROSTER SHUFFLESeattle added depth to its overused bullpen by activating RHP Drew Storen and recalling LHP David Rollins on Sunday. Storen had been sidelined by shoulder inflammation and the pair gives manager Scott Servais a few more options for the later innings with Seattles starters struggling to get deep into games of late.UP NEXTAngels: Jered Weaver (10-11) makes his 27th start as the Angels open a series in Oakland. Weaver got the win in his last start against Cincinnati.Mariners: Felix Hernandez (9-5) looks to rebound from one of his worst outings of the season as Seattle opens a series against Texas. Hernandez allowed six earned runs in four innings in a loss to the Rangers last Wednesday. Patrick Willis Youth Jersey .C. -- Al Jefferson joked that he feels he can score from anywhere on the court.

LOUIS -- Once a heavy thunderstorm finally reached Busch Stadium, Tuesday nights scheduled game between the San Diego Padres and St. Louis Cardinals didnt stand a chance.Delayed before the start, the game was finally called after a wait of an hour and 32 minutes due to rain, and it was rescheduled as the day portion of a day-night doubleheader Wednesday.Carlos Martinez (8-6, 2.85 ERA) is expected to work the opener for St. Louis against Colin Rea (5-3, 4.95). In the nightcap, the Cardinals will pitch left-hander Jaime Garcia (6-6, 4.11) against Paul Clemens (1-0, 4.73).The Cardinals (48-44) opted not to start the game as planned Tuesday when the storm was detected less than 30 minutes before the scheduled first pitch. Neither Martinez or Rea even started his warmups, and the field was covered shortly after the national anthem.The first raindrop didnt fall until around 8:45 p.m. CDT, but before it did, the fans scurried for cover as they were encouraged to leave the seating area. The storm featured frequent claps of thunder, lightning and sheets of rain blowing from left to right.With this being San Diegos only trip into St. Louis this year, a day-night doubleheader was the only option to make it up. The teams have no mutual off days for the seasons remainder, and they already played their series in San Diego.Martinez will be pitching on 11 days of rest, his last outing coming on July 9 in an 8-1 win at Milwaukee that saw him match a career high by fanning 11 in five innings. He is 0-1 with a 5.51 ERA in five career games against the Padres, two of them starts.Rea will be facing the Cardinals for the third time in his short major league career, but the first time in St. Louis. Rea absorbed a 10-3 loss to them last August and got a no-decision on April 24 in an 8-5 loss. He hasnt pitched since a no-decision July 6 in Arizona, when he was hooked one out shy of a win in San Diegos 13-6 victory.In the nightcap, Garcia will make his first start agaainst the Padres since Sept.dddddddddddd 10, 2012, when he ate an 11-3 loss. He wasnt involved in the decision Friday night in a 7-6 loss against the Miami Marlins, pitching 6 1/3 innings and allowing four runs.Clemens will replace Wednesday nights scheduled starter, Andrew Cashner, who will be pushed back to Thursday nights series finale. Clemens, who was picked up off waivers from Miami on June 28, has no record and no ERA in three relief appearances with San Diego.Had the game been played Tuesday, the Padres lineup would not have included shortstop Alexei Ramirez. Manager Andy Green planned to give Ramirez a rest, and he intends to do the same with all of his regulars in upcoming games.Its going to be 100 degrees the next couple days here, 100 degrees and over every day in Washington, (10-day) road trip right after the All-Star break, Green said, according to MLB.com. Its probably wise to try to find everybody a day down during that stretch to make sure were not running everybody into the ground early in the second half.The Cardinals will head into the doubleheader without third baseman Jhonny Peralta, who went on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday, retroactive to Monday, due to a strained ligament in his left thumb. Peralta left Sundays game in the fifth inning after injuring himself while hitting.We were trying to be patient through this, St. Louis general manager John Mozeliak said. We were hoping giving it a couple days when we were back in Milwaukee, this would be something he could play through. He was just not feeling right, so ultimately we put him on the DL.Peralta was replaced on the roster by outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker, who was recalled from Triple-A Memphis.In other roster moves, the Cardinals recalled right-hander Miguel Socolovich from Memphis while designating catcher Michael McKenry for assignment.
