Angels Rally Past Phillies With Ward's Late Homer

News summary

The Los Angeles Angels secured a 6-5 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night, rallying from a three-run deficit capped by Taylor Ward's go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning—his 22nd of the season. Jo Adell and Jorge Soler also homered for the Angels, while Bryce Harper hit two home runs and Kyle Schwarber added one for the Phillies. Mike Trout, playing in his hometown, contributed a double and an RBI single as he continues to recover from a knee injury. The Angels used seven pitchers in a bullpen game, with Sam Bachman earning the win and Kenley Jansen recording his 17th save. Harper's performance marked his first multi-homer game of the season, but it wasn't enough to prevent the Phillies' fifth loss in their last seven games. The win keeps the Angels in playoff contention as they aim to build momentum ahead of the trade deadline.
