{ANAHEIM, Cali.}—
Vin Mazzaro pitched seven stellar innings and the Kansas City Royals turned five double plays to beat the Los Angeles Angels 9-0 on Sunday in the rubber game of the three-game series.Alex Gordon, Billy Butler and Chris Getz each drove in two runs for the Royals, who won seven of their 10 meetings with the Angels - just the second time they've taken a season series from them in the last 15 years. It was their highest victory total against the Halos since 1996, when they won eight of 12.
Mazzaro (1-1) scattered five hits, walked five and did not strike out a batter in his third start with Kansas City. He pitched to contact throughout the game, inducing double-play grounders by Torii Hunter, Howie Kendrick, Mark Trumbo and Bobby Abreu. Hank Conger lined into the other one.
