TAYLOR Ward hit a two-run double in the eighth inning and the Los Angeles Angels rallied for a 4-3 victory over the New York Yankees in Anaheim, California, on Tuesday night to end a three-game losing streak.
Kevin Pillar hit a two-run home run and starter Griffin Canning gave up three runs over five innings for the Angels, who had lost six of their previous seven home games. Juan Soto hit a first-inning home run and Anthony Volpe extended his hitting streak to 20 games as the Yankees dropped back-to-back games and fell to 2-2 to open a nine-game California road trip.
Mr. Volpe, who had two hits for the game, extended his hitting streak with a second-inning single. It is the longest hitting streak by a member of the Yankees since Robinson Cano’s 23-game run in 2012. Mr. Volpe’s streak is also the third longest by a New York player aged 23 or younger. — Reuters
