TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) Albert Pujols hit a towering home run, Kole Calhoun followed with a homer and Andrew Heaney pitched five solid innings and the Los Angeles Angels beat a San Diego Padres split-squad 9-8 on Saturday.

A day after leaving a game early after getting hit by a pitch in the right foot, Pujols showed no signs of soreness when he hit a ball to the back of the berm in left field. Calhoun followed by drilling a ball over the right-center field fence.

Mike Trout also drove in a run and Ji-Man Choi had a pair of RBIs for the Angels.

Heaney allowed a pair of runs on six hits, walking one and striking out seven.

Padres starter James Shields gave up five runs on seven hits over seven innings. He walked one and struck out eight.
