ANAHEIM, Calif.—Nolan Schanuel and Zach Neto hit home runs as the Los Angeles Angels completed a three-game sweep of San Diego with a 3–2 victory Wednesday night, June 5, after Padres star Manny Machado left the game with an injury.

The Padres announced after the game that Machado had suffered a strained right hip flexor. The third baseman appeared to hurt his upper-right leg after running out a possible double-play ball in the fourth inning. He was looked at by a trainer before walking gingerly back to the first-base dugout.
