Kyle Hendricks allowed only one run and four hits in 7 2/3 innings and the host Los Angeles Angels beat the Detroit Tigers 5-2 on Saturday night.

Nolan Schanuel was 3-for-4 with a run scored and Travis d’Arnaud 2-for 3 with two runs scored and a walk for the Angels, who snapped a seven-game losing streak.

Spencer Torkelson homered for the Tigers, who had won three in a row.

Hendricks (1-3), who didn’t walk a batter and struck out three, retired 16 of the first 17 hitters, facing the regulation number of 15 batters through five innings.

Riley Greene led off the second with a single for Detroit, but he was erased on a double play. Dillon Dingler managed a two-out bloop single in the sixth, but Hendricks retired Kerry Carpenter on a soft fly to left to end the inning. The Tigers struggled to make solid contact.

After allowing one unearned run and striking out seven in the first five innings, Detroit starter Jack Flaherty (1-4) couldn’t survive the sixth. He yielded five runs (four earned) on eight hits, walking one and striking out seven in 5 2/3 innings.

Los Angeles took a 1-0 lead with an unearned run in the bottom of the second. Carpenter, Detroit’s right fielder, was charged with an error when he and center fielder Greene collided in right-center field and Carpenter dropped Kyren Paris’ two-out fly ball. It scored d’Arnaud, who had led off with a double and moved to third on a groundout.

The Angels scored four runs to make it 5-0 in the sixth as they sent nine batters to the plate. Luis Rengifo’s bases-loaded single drove in two runs, and Paris’ single also brought in two and ended Flaherty’s night.

Torkelson foiled Hendricks’ shutout bid with a solo homer with one out in the eighth. Torkelson drove a 2-2 curveball an estimated 401 feet into the left field stands for his 10th of the season. Greene drove in a run in the ninth with a groundout.

Kenley Jansen threw three pitches to two batters for his seventh save.
