ANAHEIM — It was incredible enough the Angels scored six runs in the seventh inning to tie the game, keyed by a game-tying, three-run homer from Mike Moustakas with two outs.
But then they made up a three-run deficit in the ninth inning against Astros closer Ryan Pressly, who hadn’t given up a hit in exactly a month. Two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani sparked the rally with his MLB-leading 33rd homer to open the ninth before a run-scoring passed ball and an RBI single from Hunter Renfroe tied the game.
And after All-Star closer Carlos Estévez held the Astros scoreless in the 10th, the Angels scored on a throwing error with two outs on a potential double play to get a much-needed 13-12 walk-off victory on Saturday night at Angel Stadium.
It helped the Angels finally put an end to their six-game losing streak and could give them some much needed momentum, as they’ve lost 10 of 12. Taylor Ward hit into what looked like was going to be an inning-ending double play but shortstop Grae Kessinger’s throw to first was wild and allowed the winning run to score.
