KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Josh Hamilton is starting to warm up along with the weather. Hamilton started the Angels comeback when he homered leading off the seventh inning, and Los Angeles beat the Kansas City Royals 5-2 Sunday for its eighth straight win. Los Angeles trailed 2-0 before Hamilton homered on the first pitch of the seventh from Wade Davis (3-4), giving the former AL MVP home runs in consecutive games for only the third time since signing with the Angels during the off-season. Hamilton has five RBIs in his past five games after driving in five in his previous 39. "Its good to see him driving him the ball," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "He started things off. His power is important to us no doubt." The Angels were unable to get into their dugout until about 90 minutes before the game because bees swarmed into it. A beekeeper was summoned to solve the problem. Jerome Williams (4-1) then allowed two runs and seven hits in six innings for the Angels, on their longest winning streak since taking eight straight from May 22-29 last year. When they play at the Freeway Series rival Dodgers on Monday, they can stretch a winning streak to nine for the first time since August 2004. Kansas City has lost nine of 10 and 16 of 20, dropping to 21-26. In only three of those 16 losses have the Royals scored more than three runs. Plate umpire Marty Foster ejected Kansas Citys Billy Butler for yelling from the dugout in the sixth, an inning after the designated hitter was called out on strikes and had words with Foster. Scioscia was tossed by Foster in the ninth. "Im not the only one who had a disagreement with him in this series," Butler said. "He said some things to me I didnt like and it got me fired up. Whenever I went and looked at video, it made me more mad. In the heat of the moment you react. It takes it to a different level. Thats unfortunate and I will try to control my emotions a little better. Im not going to say it isnt going to happen again, but its unfortunate." After Hamiltons home run, Davis walked two of his next three batters, Bruce Chen relieved, and J.B. Shuck and Erick Aybar hit consecutive RBI singles for a 3-2 lead. "He was throwing a pretty good game and then when Josh hit that homer everything started turning around," Williams said. "We already know our bats are there. Everybody is getting hot, not just Josh. Thats what we need. We need Josh to get back." Luke Hochevar walked Mark Trumbo and hit Howie Kendrick with a pitch in the eighth, and Shuck and Chris Iannetta hit consecutive run-scoring singles against Aaron Crow. Williams improved to 3-0 with a 2.03 ERA in his last four starts. Sean Burnett, who replaced Williams, threw only 10 pitches and left with left forearm tightness. Burnett came off the disabled list last week after missing 22 games with left forearm irritation. Scioscia said "well see in 24 hours" the extent of Burnetts injury. Ernesto Frieri pitched an eventful ninth for his 10th save in 11 chances, getting in trouble when he walked Chris Getz and gave up Alcides Escobars third hit of the game. Alex Gordon struck out, Jeff Francoeur flied out in a 12-pitch at-bat and Eric Hosmer grounded out, ending the 28-pitch innings. Davis did not allow a runner past second in the first six innings. "We got into trouble in the seventh," Davis said. "The walks put us in a bad spot. The biggest goal is to keep it at zero. With the way weve been playing, we needed a win." Kansas City built its lead on David Loughs two-out RBI triple in the second and a run-scoring throwing error by Williams on a pickoff attempt at first with runners at the corners in the fifth. George Kottaras drew his 10th walk in his 35th plate appearance and swiped second for his first steal since June 22, 2010. "We havent played well and we know it," Butler said. "Ill stand up and say were not playing the way we can. Its frustrating. A lot of guys in here are frustrated."

The San Diego Padres have traded pricey outfielder Matt Kemp to the Atlanta Braves for troubled third baseman Hector Olivera.?The deal, first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, was confirmed by both teams later Saturday night.?The Padres are also sending $10.5 million to the Braves as part of the trade.A source confirmed to ESPNs Jerry Crasnick that Olivera is expected to be designated for assignment by San Diego on Tuesday, when he comes off the restricted list following an 82-game suspension for violating Major League Baseballs domestic-violence policy.The suspension, which is retroactive to April 30, stemmed from Oliveras April 13 arrest on assault and battery charges at a hotel outside Washington, D.C.Kemp signed an eight-year, $160 million deal with the Dodgers before the 2012 season. He has a $21.5 million salary this year and is owed the same amount in each of the next three seasons.We felt like its just a situation where we can use that money down the road, Padres general manager AJ Preller said. Reallocate to our bigger club, reallocate it potentially to the amateur market, which is a spot where theres a lot of value in the flexibility with the dollars presented to us.Olivera agreed in early 2015 to a $62.5 million, six-year contract with the?Los Angeles Dodgers, then was traded to the Braves last July. He has a $4 million salary this year but lost $1,792,350 because of his suspension. He is owed $6 million next season, $6.5 million in 2018, $7.5 million in 2019 and $8.5 million in 2020.Olivera is on a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett but was removed from the lineup before Saturday nights game. He is hitting .211 with no homers and two RBIs in six games this season.San Diego acquired Kemp, a two-time All-Star outfielder with the Dodgers, from Los Angeles in December 2014. It took several days to consummate the trade because Kemp had to be cleared medically.Despite arthritis in both hips, Kemp, 31, could boost the weakest offense in the major leagues. Atlanta has baseballs worst record and ranks last in runs scored and homers.In 254 games with the Padres, Kemp is hitting .264, 28 points lower than his nine-year batting average with the Dodgers. While with San Diego, he recorded 46 homers, 169 RBIs and 247 strikeouts.Its a sign that we arent happy losing, Braves general manager John Coppolella said of acquiring Kemp. We arent trying to finnish with the worst record ever so we can get the first [draft] pick.ddddddddddddWe want to win every night, and making this trade now is a big deal to us because it helps us get better this year and the next three years after that.Kemp is expected to make his Atlanta debut on Tuesday, when the Braves begin a three-game home series with Pittsburgh. President of baseball operations John Hart said there was no need for Kemp to hurry to Turner Field; the Braves have an off day Monday.Atlanta had tried for several months to deal Olivera following his April arrest. Coppolella said he was pleased to put the Olivera chapter behind him. Saturday marked the one-year anniversary of the third basemans arrival.?What happened with Hector is unfortunate and unacceptable, Coppolella told the AP. Were happy to have Matt Kemp.San Diego is sending Atlanta $3 million this year as part of the trade: half on Aug. 15 and the rest on Sept. 15. From 2017 to 19, the Padres will pay the Braves $2.5 million annually, half each on May 15 and July 15.To get him for roughly $8.5 million a year when you factor out Olivera, it made a lot of sense for us, Coppolella said of Kemp. We didnt give up a draft pick. We didnt trade away any prospects. So we were able to stick with the plan that we had while still filling a major need for right-handed power.Saturdays trade is the latest among a series of deals the Padres have made in the past two months as they move to rebuild.Since June, they have traded away four starting pitchers, sending All-Star left-hander Drew Pomeranz to the Boston Red Sox, James Shields to the Chicago White Sox, and Andrew Cashner and Colin Rea to the?Miami Marlins.Other players from their Opening Day roster who have been dealt include closer Fernando Rodney and outfielder?Melvin Upton Jr.In rebuilding the Braves, president of baseball operations John Hart and Coppolella have traded Craig Kimbrel, Jason Heyward, Justin Upton, Upton Jr. and Andrelton Simmons for prospects.Atlanta also has taken on bad contracts for declining players such as Michael Bourn, Nick Swisher and Bronson Arroyo. Dan Uggla was released in July 2014 despite the Braves still owing him $18 million.Information from ESPNs Jim Bowden and the Associated Press was used in this report. ' ' '
