ANAHEIM, Calif. Rafael Marquez Jersey . - Lonnie Chisenhall hit a two-run homer during Clevelands four-run fourth, and Zach McAllister pitched into the seventh inning of the Indians 5-2 victory over Jered Weaver and the slumping Los Angeles Angels on Monday night. Nick Swisher homered and threw out a runner at the plate for the Indians, who won for just the fifth time in 14 games to regain ground in the AL Central. Cleveland trails first-place Detroit by 6 1/2 games and sits 4 1/2 games out of the second wild-card spot. McAllister (6-7) gave up five hits while striking out five, earning his second straight victory after a six-start winless stretch. Mark Trumbo homered and drove in both runs for the Angels, who have lost 11 of 15. Mike Trout sat out to rest his right hamstring. The Angels also learned before the game theyll be without Albert Pujols for the rest of the season, shutting down the $240 million slugger who partially tore the plantar fascia in his left foot last month. Weaver (7-7) allowed eight hits and four runs over six innings in his second straight loss for the Angels. Los Angeles longtime ace got into serious trouble only in the fourth, but the Indians five-hit burst while batting around was more than enough. Jason Kipnis led off the fourth with a walk, eventually scoring on Carlos Santanas single. After Jason Giambis sacrifice fly, Chisenhall ended an 0-for-12 skid by putting his seventh homer of the season into the elevated stands in right field. Los Angeles responded with a run on Trumbos single later in the fourth, but Swisher threw out Trumbo at the plate on Chris Nelsons fly to medium right field. Angels manager Mike Scioscia argued catcher Yan Gomes didnt tag Trumbo, but replays were unclear. Swisher, who had two hits, connected off Kevin Jepsen in the ninth for his 14th homer. McAllister was sharp in the opening game of the Indians only series at the Big A this season, combining with three relievers to hold the Angels to six hits. Before Trumbos ninth-inning blast, Los Angeles managed to get just three runners in scoring position — all in the fourth inning. McAllister went nearly 11 weeks between victories before last weeks win at Minnesota. Trumbo added his 29th homer off Indians closer Chris Perez, connecting in his third straight game for the fifth time in his career. Trout was held out of the Angels starting lineup after he felt tightness in his right hamstring while running out a double in Sundays loss to Houston. The All-Star outfielder has reached base in 40 consecutive games, the longest active streak in the majors and the second-longest in team history. "It feels a lot better today," Trout said before the game. "I feel good, but I dont want to push it. Well see how it feels tomorrow." Peter Bourjos started in Trouts absence, but the speedy outfielder went hitless and dropped to 0 for 12 since returning from a lengthy absence with a broken right wrist. NOTES: Rookie RHP Danny Salazar had been expected to start Mondays game for the Indians, but manager Terry Francona decided a few days ago to give Salazar an extra day of rest. Francona simply forgot to tell people about his decision, he said. Cleveland is carefully monitoring the workload of the 23-year-old Salazar, who had elbow ligament replacement surgery in 2010. "When we have days where we can buy (Salazar extra) days (off), it makes sense," Francona said. "Were just trying to use common sense." ... Salazar will make his fourth career start Tuesday against Los Angeles C.J. Wilson. ... Angels 2B Howie Kendrick is working out aggressively to return from his left knee injury, but Angels manager Mike Scioscia didnt sound certain Kendrick will return from the disabled list Wednesday. "He still has some things he has to work through," Scioscia said. Diego Reyes Jersey . Hes coming back to fulfil them.

He was pretty convincing and nearly got through the cliche unscathed before succumbing to a last-second Freudian slip. That was one of the things that we spoke about in our meeting this morning, Williams said ahead of Sundays game. That even though theyre 0-6 theyve been in every game. Theyve played some tough teams very closely and we expect another effort from them [tonight]. So were going to come in and take them serious, like an NBA team. Looks can be deceiving but, amazingly, the Philadelphia 76ers are in fact an NBA team. Per Williamss pre-game assertion and to the Raptors credit, they showed their winless visitors no mercy. I thought we were very professional and took a very professional approach, Dwane Casey said following his teams rout of the 76ers in a 120-88 victory. Those guys are a young team and I knew they were going to come out and play hard, and they did that in the first few minutes of the game. Our guys played the way we should play. Facing a cast of characters that even the staunchest hoops head would have difficulty picking out of a line-up, Toronto took the lead less than two minutes into Sundays contest and never relinquished. DeMar DeRozan was the first to identity and exploit a glaring mismatch, welcoming JaKarr Sampson - an un-drafted rookie - to the league, attacking him to the tune of seven points in three minutes. By the end of the opening quarter, they had scored 33 points, two days after dropping 28 on the Wizards, shooting 69 per cent - a percentage that didnt drop below 60 until early in the third frame. Lowrys third-quarter put-back stretched the lead over 20 for the first time and DeRozans nifty 360 lay-up, on the subsequent possession, padded it to 23. That advantage would become 41 in the fourth. Weve been in a lot of games where weve had big leads and lost them, said DeRozan, who scored a game-high 24 points on just 12 shots in 25 minutes of action. Weve been stressing being able to put our foot on peoples necks when we gain the lead and not give them any hope. We didnt let up at any point. We didnt give them no hope and thats how we have to play when we gain leads. Despite Philadelphias clumsy start and all the talk of taking them seriously, this had the makings of a let-down game for the Raptors, feeling good about themselves after acing their biggest early-season test on Friday. Even Casey feared it before the game. For a player to look across and not see a Hall-of-Famer or whatever, its kind of hard for them to see and understand that guys probably trying to audition for 29 other teams and trying to prove himself against you, said the Raptors coach. Thats probably a challenge. But, with a national audience watching on NBA TV, they looked the part of a team that now stands alone atop the Eastern Conference standings (for the first time - after seven games - in franchise history). Its great for the fans, Casey said of his teams standing in the East. Its great for the players to see that, but its not the most important thing right now. Our most important thing is developing a consistent personality. Sundays convincing win was another step in that process. On the other end of the spectrum, the 76ers - dead last in the East - are playing out this season in the hopes of, one day, being able to say the same. With an average age just over 23-years-old, Philadelphia is the youngest team in the league. Only three of their active players have more than 84 games of NBA experience under their belt. Jonathan dos Santos Jersey. In contrast, the Raptors - who are not exactly a veteran club - dressed 13 players on Sunday, each of them having appeared in at least 148 contests. Brett Brown, a former assistant and Gregg Popovich disciple in San Antonio, may be the calmest 0-7 coach in history (though he did pick up one of the quickest technical fouls in recent memory, two minutes into the game). Why panic? Everythings going according to plan. Philadelphia owns the rights to four players selected in the top 12 of the last two drafts. None of them suited up in Toronto - Nerlens Noel (sixth pick in 2013, out - ankle injury), Michael Carter-Williams (11th in 2013 and last seasons Rookie of the Year, out - shoulder injury), Joel Embiid (third in 2014, likely out for the season - foot injury), Dario Saric (12th in 2014, playing in Turkish League). Theyre biding their time. Its a challenge that I really enjoy, said a surprisingly chipper Brown before his teams latest loss. The job that I have now is so different than where I came from because you have a bunch of 20-year-olds that have spent a year, maybe two years in college. I love coaching them, they play hard and I respect their work ethic. I respect their day-to-day energy and I try to convince them that it will pay off, it will add up, you are doing this for a reason. I dont want them to get beaten down by the win and loss column. Not too long ago, Casey and the Raptors were in a similar situation. When Casey took over ahead of the lockout-shortened 2011-12 campaign, he inherited an inexperienced group, one that former general manager Bryan Colangelo has since admitted was designed to be bad. Only DeRozan and Johnson remain from that team. I was in the same position as a lot of them guys that are over there now, DeRozan said. I know what it takes to really start from scratch, how tough it really is. As long as you stay with it, keep working, slowly but surely itll turn around. Youve got to respect it because you have to start from somewhere. The 76ers may not have a single player from Sundays line-up around when theyre long-term plan finally starts to take shape. Casey, like Brown, used to speak of the process, preaching patience both in and outside of the locker room. He would point to the Spurs and the Pacers, using them as benchmarks. This is what were building towards, he would say. Now, the Raptors are the big brother. Brown can only hope to emulate their path and, like Casey, still be around when it begins to pay off. Personally, I have a lot of respect for the way theyve grown the program, Brown said of the Raptors. They showed Coach Casey some respect with a well-deserved contract extension and now theyve built something. Coming off last year, they feel good about themselves. You can actually see the growth of the program. So, on many levels, you look at that, given what were trying to do, there are parts of what I just said that you hope to duplicate. I mean its tough to establish a culture, Casey said, sympathizing with the position Brown finds himself in. To go from a winning culture to rebuilding is very difficult because your mindset is, each and every night out, you have an opportunity to win, whereas, when you are rebuilding with a young team, you are motivating them to go hard each and every night, to play physical, to play tough and it might not result in a W...and then to be resilent to come back from that the next night. Thats hard to do with a young team, to keep those spirits up and have them to be able to see the big picture. ' ' '
