ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Tim Lincecum realized he might have to take a few lumps while he attempts to restart his major league career with the Los Angeles Angels.He took another bruising Tuesday night at the hands of the surging Houston Astros.Carlos Correa hit a three-run homer in the first inning, and the Astros beat Lincecum and the Angels 7-1 for their ninth win in 10 games.Lincecum (1-2) couldnt get through the fifth inning in his third start for the Angels, yielding seven hits, four walks and five runs. It was the two-time Cy Young winners second straight bumpy outing after a promising debut.My fastball command was pretty terrible, Lincecum said. I didnt get a chance to establish the zone and work around that. I felt myself becoming one-dimensional again with my changeup and not really finding a way out. That team is a good hitting team. They punched the balls when they were up in the zone and made me pay for it.Lincecum has a 6.75 ERA after three starts for the Angels, who signed the longtime San Francisco Giants star to patch that rotation. While he struck out seven Astros, he also struggled with control -- throwing just 55 strikes in 101 pitches -- and served up too many hittable balls to the Astros surging lineup.Lincecum didnt want to blame his command struggles on rust after missing the second half of the 2015 season and undergoing hip surgery.Yes and no, but at the same time, Im here, and I committed to being here, and I told myself that I was ready, and Im willing to work with that, Lincecum said. I dont really accept what Im going through right now. I want to move forward and work through it and give my team a chance to win.Lincecum was in trouble again after four Houston batters. He started with a four-pitch walk to George Springer, and Jose Altuve also drew a four-pitch walk before Correa put his 13th homer far over the left field fence. Correa had never faced Lincecum before that shot.I knew he was going to try to throw some changeups and get me to chase, Correa said. Its big to score early in the game.Albert Pujols third-inning single drove in the only run for last-place Los Angeles (32-46), which has lost eight of nine. Before the game, general manager Billy Eppler said manager Mike Scioscias job is not in jeopardy with the Angels, whose injury-riddled starting rotation has been their biggest obstacle.Correa went 3 for 4 and matched his career high with four RBI as Houston easily improved to 34-20 since May 1. The Astros also beat the Angels for the seventh straight time, their longest winning streak in the rivalrys history.We expect to win the way were playing, which is good, Houston manager A.J. Hinch said. We do have a nice little vibe about us, a little swagger. Weve got our confidence back.Scott Feldman (5-3) yielded three hits in five innings to win his first start since April 24 for the Astros. Feldman was a stopgap starter after making 16 appearances out of the bullpen over the past two months, but he kept Houston moving flawlessly forward while allowing no earned runs or walks.TRAINERS ROOMAstros: Feldman filled in for RHP Lance McCullers, whose rotation turn was skipped due to a blister. McCullers expects to return Monday for his next start, although Feldman wouldnt mind another shot. I love starting, Feldman said. But I also love being on this team, and were winning a lot of games right now.Angels: 3B Yunel Escobar missed another game with a bone bruise in his left knee. Scioscia hopes he is available Friday in Boston. ... C Geovany Soto is closing in on a rehab assignment after working out in the bullpen Tuesday. He has been out since mid-May after knee surgery.UP NEXTAstros: Dallas Keuchel (4-9, 5.35 ERA) beat Kansas City last week for his first win in five June starts, but the AL Cy Young winners weird season continues.Angels: Jered Weaver (6-6, 5.24 ERA) has been solid in recent weeks, but had a rough outing against Oakland earlier in this homestand.

Referee Mike Chioda called for the bell at 11 minutes, 45 seconds with Orton lying in the center of the ring in a pool of his own blood.Due to the very nature of sports entertainment, its often difficult to determine whats real and whats a work. The argument for the finish being unplanned, however, centers around just how much blood Orton lost during this current PG-era in WWE where blood is rarely seen.Lesnar appeared to open the cut on Ortons head with a short elbow while applying his patented ground-and-pound attack taken from his days in mixed martial arts. If the blood was accidental, Lesnar worked it into the storyline perfectly by twice pushing ringside doctors out of the way in order to apply more punishment with right hands to the head.ddddddddddddhe crowd booed the surprising finish from the moment the referee called for the bell.The theatrics continued from there as Shane McMahon, commissioner of SmackDown Live, which drafted Orton in July, came down to stop Lesnar from continuing his attack. After a brief staredown, Lesnar applied his finishing move, the F5, to McMahon, who landed right on top of Ortons massive blood stain on the canvas.As expected, the match was a physical one from the start. Lesnar intercepted Ortons first attempt at his vaunted RKO finishing move and shoved him halfway across the ring.From there the bout took a trip to Suplex City, with Lesnar landing six in a row before taking Orton outside the ring and twice slamming him through announcers tables. Lesnar went on for the trifecta on the third announcers table but was blocked by Orton, who delivered an RKO that woke up the crowd.Moments later, both wrestlers kicked out of each others finishing moves before Lesnars ground attack opened the deep cut that led to the finish.For recaps and ratings of all the SummerSlam matches, click here.
