LOS ANGELES — Andreas Athanasiou and Blake Lizotte each had a goal and two assists and the Los Angeles Kings defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-1 on Tuesday night. Anze Kopitar and Carl Grundstrom also scored for the Kings, who had gone 14 games since their last win by at least three goals, against St. Louis on March 17. Cal Petersen made 24 saves. Cam Fowler scored, Anthony Stolarz made 18 saves and the Ducks lost their third straight. The teams played in front of about 2,000 fans, who were allowed into the Staples Center for the first time in more than a year due to the pandemic. The Kings took the lead 5:26 into the first. Grundstrom was hit in the back by Athanasiou’s shot from the point, which sent the puck tumbling in past a bewildered Stolarz for his sixth goal. Kopitar made it 2-0 at 8:31 of the second with his 10th goal. Drew Doughty’s stretch pass set up the breakaway by Kopitar, who has reached double digits in scoring in each of his 14 seasons in the NHL. Athanasiou buried a one-timer from the right circle to push the lead to 3-0 at 10:48. It was the third multi-point game for Athanasiou this season. Lizotte made it 4-0 at 10:50 of the third, putting Athanasiou’s rebound into an open net. Playing in his 103 career game, it was Lizotte’s first three-point game and first with multiple assists. Fowler got the 4-1 final with his fourth goal at 14:36. BACK AT IT The Kings had reinforcements on defence with Matt Roy back after missing seven games because of COVID-19, and Tobias Bjornfot returning from an upper-body injury. With their second pair back, the Kings ended a run of 12 games allowing multiple goals. WELCOME BACK The Kings had fans at Staples Center for the first time since March 11, 2020, with nearly 2,000 in attendance after showing proof of vaccination or a negative test as a condition of entry. San Jose is set to follow suit starting next Monday, which will leave Chicago as the only NHL team in the United States that has yet to play in front of fans on home ice this season.

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Shohei Ohtani pitched four rollercoaster scoreless innings, Mike Trout and Albert Pujols homered and the Los Angeles Angels defeated the Texas Rangers 6-2 on Tuesday night. Kurt Suzuki also went deep for the Angels, who have won six of their nine home games. Ohtani took the mound for the first time since April 4 after dealing with a blister issue on the middle finger of his throwing hand. The right-hander allowed only one hit but was the first starting pitcher since at least 1901 to toss four shutout innings with at least six walks and seven strikeouts. According to Sportradar, he joins Colorado's Tyler Chatwood (2017) and Bill Bailey of the 1914 Baltimore Terrapins to go five innings or fewer and allow no runs on one hit with at least six walks and seven strikeouts. Ohtani — who was on a pitch limit — threw 80 in all and was never able to retire the Rangers in order. But he was effective when needed. After getting Isiah Kiner-Falefa to ground out to start the game, Ohtani walked the next three Texas hitters to load the bases. However, he got out of the inning by striking out Nick Solak and Willie Calhoun. Adolis García walked with one out in the second but was caught stealing at second. Ohtani walked García again with two outs in the fourth and then hit Brock Holt with a pitch before he struck out Kiner-Falefa for his final out of the night. Ohtani's 37 strikes included 13 swings and misses. Solak homered for the Rangers, who were held to five hits and left nine runners on base. Jordan Lyles (0-2) went six innings, allowing three runs and five hits. Trout, whose 32-game on-base streak was snapped Monday, had three hits. He led off the fourth with a double to left-centre after miscommunication by the Rangers' outfielders, and gave the Angels a 2-0 lead when he scored on a wild pitch by Lyles. After Solak's solo shot to left-centre off Griffin Canning (1-1) brought the Rangers within a run in the sixth, Trout took Lyles' full-count fastball over the left-field wall in the home half. Texas closed to 3-2 when Kiner-Falefa led off the seventh with a triple and scored on a one-out single by Joey Gallo. But the Angels put it away with a three-run seventh on Pujols' drive to centre and Suzuki's two-run homer down the left-field line. QUITE A START Scott Schebler made the most of his first start with the Angels. Schebler was in right field and led off the third with a double. He advanced to third on Suzuki's fly to right and then gave Los Angeles a 1-0 lead when he beat the throw home by Gallo to score on David Fletcher's sacrifice fly. TRAINER'S ROOM Rangers: 1B Ronald Guzman is expected to see a specialist before the end of the week concerning the torn meniscus in his right knee. Guzman was injured April 12 against Tampa Bay. Angels: 3B Anthony Rendon (groin) did some hitting and fielding drills. He is eligible to come off the injured list Wednesday but is unlikely to be activated until later in the week. UP NEXT Texas right-hander Mike Foltynewicz and Los Angeles lefty José Quintana are both looking for their first win. Foltynewicz (0-3, 5.63 ERA) has allowed five home runs in three starts while Quintana (0-1, 16.20) is looking to bounce back after allowing seven runs (five earned) in 1 2/3 innings in his last start on April 10 against Toronto. ___ More AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports Joe Reedy, The Associated Press

Last month, it was disclosed that an unknown number of Microsoft customers had been compromised after an allegedly Chinese hacking group made use of serious vulnerabilities in the company's email server software.
