ANAHEIM — Kaleb Cowart ripped a three-run double in the second and Jefry Marte banged a solo homer an inning later to send the Angels off and running to to a 7-1 win over the Astros on Friday night at Angel Stadium.
Angels right-hander Daniel Wright picked up his first Major League win by allowing one run, no walks and six hits in six innings. The run he allowed came in the second, when Carlos Correa walked, advanced to third on a pair of groundouts and scored on a Teoscar Hernandez ground-rule double.
Cowart’s bases-loaded double was the big blow in a four-run second inning that put the Angels ahead 4-1 against Astros righty Brad Peacock, and Andrelton Simmons added a two-run single in the fifth inning to push the lead to 7-1.
The Angels have won four in a row.
