Angels pitcher Hector Santiago was pegged with his seventh loss of the season Sunday night against the Braves in Atlanta.

Santiago (0-7) pitched five scoreless innings again before having a meltdown in the sixth frame. He permitted run-scoring singles to Evan Gattis and Justin Upton, respectively, and a two-run double to Tommy La Stella. He permitted four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four over 5 1/3 innings of a 7-3 defeat.

Santiago owns a 4.44 ERA and a 1.36 WHIP through 48 2/3 innings. He will search for his first win of the season Friday at home against the Texas.
