The regular season ended with a record of 94–68 and the Angels winning the American League West title for the sixth time. However, the Angels' playoff run quickly ended, as they were swept by the Boston Red Sox in the American League Division Series, just as they were in 2004. 2 Offseason During the offseason, the Angels of Anaheim released Adam Kennedy and Darin Erstad, two of the few players remaining from their 2002 World Series championship team, forcing the Angels to rely on their rookies and younger veterans for the early part of the season. In November, they signed former Texas Rangers center fielder Gary Matthews, Jr. to a 5-year contract worth $50 million. Outfielder Juan Rivera broke a leg playing winter baseball in the Venezuelan winter league, leading the Angels of Anaheim to sign free agent Shea Hillenbrand. The Angels of Anaheim solidified their bullpen for the 2007 season by re-signing set-up man Scot Shields and closer Francisco Rodríguez each to one-year contracts and acquiring Justin Speier and Darren Oliver via free agency. Late in spring training, third baseman Chone Figgins fractured his finger, putting him out of action for the first month of the season. This unexpected injury led Maicer Izturis to claim the start at third base entering the season. Regular season Season summary April The Angels' season began with a three-game sweep of the Rangers at home, a series which saw the Angels of Anaheim outscore the Rangers 17–7. The Angels of Anaheim continued their 7-game homestand with a four-game series split with the Athletics. With a solid record of 5–2 and first place in the division after the first week of the season, the Angels of Anaheim traveled onto the road to take on the Indians. However, the Indians' previous four-game series with the Mariners was postponed because of heavy snow in Cleveland, Ohio. thumb|right|175px|The Angels of Anaheim and Indians at Miller Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin The large amount of snow that had fallen upon Jacobs Field brought about the discussion of moving the series to a city with better field conditions.

The three-game series sweep was the Angels' first since they swept the Yankees in May. The Angels also won their 9th series in a row. The Angels were prepared to play their first games against an American League team in three weeks, but were swept by the Royals, marking the first time in two months that the Angels were swept and the first series the Angels lost since May 4–6. The Angels traveled to Baltimore, Maryland to begin a three-game series with the Orioles.

July The Angels improved to a 4–0 record in the first game of the new month with a 4–3 victory against the Orioles, taking the series. The Angels, hoping to end the first half with a successful week, continued their road trip in Texas. In the first game, Ervin Santana threw a career-high 11 strikeouts. But it was all for nothing, as the highlight of the game came when the Rangers' Brad Wilkerson hit his third home run of the game, becoming the first American League player (third throughout the league) to hit three home runs in one game. The Angels split the final two games of the series, and concluded their road trip, and the first half of the season, by taking on the New York Yankees. Three Angels players represented the American League in the 2007 Major League Baseball All-Star Game; Vladimir Guerrero was the leading vote-getter amongst American League outfielders in fan balloting, while John Lackey and Francisco Rodríguez were selected by Jim Leyland, the American League manager for the event. Guerrero won the Home Run Derby, and Rodriguez earned the save in the American League's 5–4 victory. August Guerrero did not hit a home run in a regular-season game in July, in the midst of the longest home run drought of his career. He turned the page once August began, smashing four home runs in two games on the second and third of the month.Guerrero's homers end streak, help Angels to victory Season standings Los Angeles Angels
