ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Luis Cessa stood in the dugout before his first major league start with nerves building as each minute passed. A pregame ceremony ran long, and anticipation built for his first-inning showdowns with Mike Trout and Albert Pujols.By the time he released his first pitch, he was at ease.Cessa pitched six scoreless innings to win his first start and help the New York Yankees beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-1 on Saturday night.You always worry about how kids are going to react, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. You wonder how hes going to react to that, waiting and waiting and he cant wait to get out there. But I thought he handled that really well.Brian McCann went 2 for 4 with two RBI and a run, Starlin Castro went 2 for 4 with two runs and Aaron Judge drove in two. Gary Sanchez hit his fifth home run in six games in the first inning, a two-out solo homer to left field.Pujols got his 583rd home run in the ninth inning, tying him with former St. Louis Cardinals teammate Mark McGwire for 10th on the career list.I think it would have been a little bit more special if we had won, Pujols said. But to tie with Mark is very special because hes a very close friend of mine. We stay in touch and hes a guy that always helps me out whenever I go through a slump and a guy that mentored me.Pujols already had a congratulatory text from McGwire and one of his sons waiting for him after the game.He was always pulling for me from day one, Pujols said. The whole reason Im in the big leagues is because when he was in St. Louis he told (former manager Tony LaRussa), `You need to take this kid.Cessa (3-0) struck out five and walked one. He struggled just twice, giving up back-to-back two-out singles in the third and hitting Trout in the sixth. An early 3-0 lead further relaxed Cessa.I was more aggressive, Cessa said. I could throw more fastballs and be more aggressive with everyone.After giving up a single to Jefry Marte in the seventh, Cessa was relieved by Tyler Clippard, who nearly gave up a home run to C.J. Cron, but Brett Gardner dived into the stands in left to make the out.Right off the bat, I thought it was a home run, Girardi said. And then he got closer and closer and I thought, `Maybe, maybe. Stay in here, stay in here. Outstanding catch. That was a big out.After giving up three earned runs in the first inning, Ricky Nolasco (4-11) settled in to cruise through the next five. But with two outs in the sixth, Nolasco gave up back-to-back singles to Castro and McCann. With Judge batting, McCann stole second base -- his first steal of the year -- allowing both runners to score on Judges single to center.Nolasco gave up five earned on seven hits with seven strikeouts and still hasnt won at home since May 25, 2015, as a member of the Minnesota Twins. His 15-game home winless streak is the longest active streak in baseball.ANDERSONS DAYGarret Anderson was inducted into the Angels Hall of Fame on Saturday. Anderson spoke during a pregame on-field ceremony that included speeches and videos from former teammates, including Tim Salmon and Chili Davis.One of the most productive offensive players in club history, Anderson is still the Angels leader in games played, at-bats, runs, hits, total bases, extra-base hits, doubles and RBI.

But Reyes allowed just two hits over his final three innings.When you have 71 pitches after three (innings), you typically got a lot more on you than the three runs they had, Cardinals manager Mike Mathney said.

The Cubs fell to 9-9 against St. Louis.They would be very tough, Maddon said of a potential playoff matchup. Theyre very good offensively. They can match up out of the bullpen.
