(AP) — Matt Harvey was one hanging curveball away from looking start-to-finish like the ace he had been with the New York Mets.Khris Davis belted that misfired breaking ball into the left field seats, but a big hit from Andrelton Simmons ensured Harvey’s first start with the Angels was an enjoyable one.Harvey pitched solidly in his Angels debut Mike Foltynewicz Jersey , Andrelton Simmons hit a tiebreaking single in the eighth inning and Los Angeles beat the Oakland Athletics 6-2 on Friday night for its first victory under new manager Brad Ausmus.“He was really, really good,” Ausmus said of Harvey. “He used all of his pitches, his velocity was up in the mid-90s, he threw some really good curveballs. I liked the fire that he showed.”Mike Trout doubled in two runs, Kole Calhoun had an RBI single and Justin Bour drew a bases-loaded walk to spark an Angels offense that failed to score over the first 16 innings of the season.Harvey was coming off an uneven spring but was sharp in his first start since signing an $11 million, one-year deal with the Angels in December. The former Mets ace allowed two runs and four hits in six innings. He pushed his fastball over 95 mph while walking three and striking out one.“We won this game against that kind of offense because he kept them off the board,” said catcher Jonathan Lucroy http://www.bravesfanproshop.com/authentic-nick-markakis-jersey , who signed with the Angels this offseason. “I was in that lineup last year, I know how good that lineup is. Him only giving up two runs to them, that’s pretty impressive.”Harvey was at his best after giving up two walks and an infield single in the fifth. He struck out Ramon Laureano on three pitches and got Nick Hundley to ground into a double play.“That was the big point of the game for me,” Harvey said. “To get through that with no runs … that’s what I remember from when I was good.”Davis homered for the second straight day, but the A’s normally reliable bullpen didn’t hold the lead. Davis, who led the majors with 48 home runs in 2018, has three in four games.The Angels managed two hits off starter Marco Estrada and reliever Lou Trivino before scoring four times in the eighth.Lucroy and Brian Goodwin singled off reliever Joakim Soria (0-1). After Calhoun doubled in Lucroy, Trout was intentionally walked to load the bases. Ryan Buchter replaced Soria and walked Bour to force in a run. Simmons Brandon McCarthy Jersey , who was hitless in the opener Thursday, followed with a sharp single to right-center off Liam Hendriks to score Calhoun and Trout.“I threw one quality strike,” Soria said. “One quality pitch. They’re going to make you pay if you don’t throw quality pitches. I threw just five pitches and I gave them four runs.”Trout hit a two-run double off Fernando Rodney in the ninth.Hansel Robles (1-0) retired three batters. Ty Buttrey pitched a scoreless eighth and Cody Allen worked the ninth.Estrada allowed two hits over six innings, struck out three and walked two.MORALES MAKES A’S DEBUTKendrys Morales walked and singled in four plate appearances in his first game with the A’s since being acquired from Toronto on Wednesday. Morales gives Oakland manager Bob Melvin much-needed flexibility with his lineup after losing Gold Glove first baseman Matt Olson for at least a month due to a hand injury.PICKING UP THE HARDWAREMelvin was presented with his manager of the year award during a pregame ceremony. Third baseman Matt Chapman and Olson received their Gold Gloves, while Davis was given a trophy for being the majors’ top designated hitter.TRAINER’S ROOMAngels: OF Justin Upton will miss eight to 12 weeks after being diagnosed with turf toe in his left foot. Upton was injured after running into the outfield wall chasing a flyball Sunday during an exhibition game. The Angels placed Upton on the injured list Thursday with hopes of a quick return. “It’s certainly not ideal,” Ausmus said.UP NEXTLHP Brett Anderson makes his first start of the season for Oakland on Saturday night while Los Angeles counters with RHP Felix Pena. Anderson is coming off a strong spring when he had a 2.87 ERA. Pena was 3-5 in 2018.__
