We all know how good and how much money lefthander Johan Santana received from the New York Mets to be their ace.
Well, it looks like another Santana is a staff ace too.
Ervin Santana ran his record to 6-0 after pitching a shutout in a 4-0 Los Angeles Angels win over Kansas City on Monday.
In other American League action, Boston downs Detroit 5-3; Oakland nips Baltimore 2-1 in 10 innings; Seattle beat Texas 7-3 and Toronto downs Chicago 1-0.
In the National League, Los Angeles uses three home runs to down New York 5-1; Central Division leader St.Louis beat Colorado 6-5; Cincinnati downs Chicago 5-3 and Philadelphia mauls Arizona 11-4.
