ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Angels used eight pitchers -- a franchise record for a nine-inning game -- in a 2-0 victory over Oakland on Saturday night that increased their AL West lead over the Athletics to four games. The deficit is the largest for the As this season. They led the division by four games on Aug. 9 before going on their current 6-13 slide. Their only hits were infield singles by Josh Donaldson in the first and fourth, and a single by Sam Fuld in the ninth. Cory Rasmus made his first major league start for the Angels in place of Garrett Richards, out for the season because of a torn patellar tendon in his left knee. The 26-year-old right-hander threw 49 pitches over three innings -- matching his longest stint in 43 relief appearances over two big league seasons -- and allowed one hit while striking out six and walking none. Michael Roth, recalled from Double-A Arkansas earlier in the day, relieved Rasmus and found himself in a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the fourth. He was replaced by Yoslan Herrera (1-1) after Jonny Gomes was sent up to pinch hit for Josh Reddick, and Gomes grounded into an inning-ending double play. Herrera made only four pitches while helping the Angels win their fifth in a row and go a season-best 29 games over .500 (82-53). Huston Street got three outs for his 11th save with the Angels and 35th overall this season, reducing their bullpen ERA to 3.31.

Erick Aybar, who had two hits to extend his hitting streak to 15 games, opened the scoring in the fourth with an RBI single. Moments later, Howie Kendrick scored on Samardzijas 10th wild pitch of the season with David Freese at the plate. TRAINERS ROOM Athletics: Center fielder and switch-hitting leadoff man Coco Crisp did not play because of neck stiffness, the result of a play he made trying to rob Chris Iannetta of a two-run homer on Friday night.
