(Sports Network) - The Baltimore Orioles and Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim close out a three-game weekend set with the rubber match at Angel Stadium today. . Jon Garland cruised through eight innings on Saturday, allowing only three hits and one earned run yesterday in helping the Angels to a 3-1 victory.

Garland (4-3) gave up two singles and a run in the top of the second then settled down, allowing only a one-out Melvin Mora double in the seventh through six scoreless innings the rest of the way. He finished the game with one walk and one strikeout.

Gary Matthews Jr. knocked in two runs with two sacrifices and Reggie Willits had two hits while knocking in one for the Angels, who snapped a two-game losing streak. Chone Figgins did the dirty work on the basepaths, scoring the winning and insurance runs, drawing two walks and stealing a base.

The Angels' red-hot first baseman Casey Kotchman came into the game second in the AL in average with a team-leading 20 RBI but left four runners on base including two in scoring position, going 0-for-4.

Angels' left fielder Garret Anderson was ejected for only the third time in his career in the seventh arguing balls and strikes.

Daniel Cabrera (2-1) was mildly effective through 7 1/3 innings, giving up three earned runs on six hits with two walks and six strikeouts. Cabrera's past control problems came back to bite him in the later innings with a hit batter, walk and a wild pitch that set up all three runs to score. Luke Scott knocked in the only run for Baltimore, which has lost three of their last four.

The Orioles are 6-8 on the road and won't play in Baltimore again until May 13
