Trout had two hits and raised his AL-leading average to .345. The Angels have won 14 of their last 15 road games.
Toronto's Jose Bautista hit his major league-best 26th homer, a three-run drive in the fifth. It wasn't enough as the last-place Blue Jays slumped to their third straight defeat. Albert Pujols had four of Los Angeles' 14 hits. Dan Haren (6-7) allowed six runs and seven hits in six innings to win consecutive starts for the first time since May 29. Ernesto Frieri finished for his 10th save.
Brett Cecil (1-1) lost for the first time in three starts.
White Sox 4, Yankees 3: Dayan Viciedo hit a three-run homer off David Robertson in the ninth inning after a throwing error, and the Chicago White Sox rallied past the Yankees.
Tigers 5, Rays 2: Miguel Cabrera had four hits and drove in two runs, leading Max Scherzer and the Detroit Tigers over Tampa Bay.
Cabrera homered and doubled. His sixth-inning RBI single off James Shields (7-5) gave Scherzer a 4-1 lead.
Indians 7, Orioles 2: Johnny Damon and Asdrubal Cabrera hit three-run homers, Shin-Soo Choo had a solo shot, and the Cleveland Indians beat Baltimore to end a five-game losing streak.

Pedro Alvarez also went deep for Pittsburgh, which split the four-game set in Philadelphia by winning the last two. The surprising Pirates, seeking their first winning season since 1992, are 40-35 and second in the NL central.
Burnett (9-2) allowed three runs and six hits, striking out seven. It's the first time a Pirates pitcher has won eight in a row since Dock Ellis in 1974. Joel Hanrahan tossed a scoreless ninth for his 20th save.
Eric Kratz and Hunter Pence hit homers for the Phillies.
Giants 5, Reds 0: Madison Bumgarner pitched a one-hitter, allowing only Ryan Hanigan's solid single leading off the sixth ining, as San Francisco threw its franchise-record fourth straight shutout.
