Overview
- Taylor Ward’s go-ahead two-run homer in the seventh inning marked his 22nd of the season and completed a comeback from a three-run deficit.
- Jo Adell’s two-run shot in the fourth inning and Jorge Soler’s solo homer earlier fueled Los Angeles’ rally at Citizens Bank Park.
- Bryce Harper homered twice and drove in four runs for Philadelphia, with Kyle Schwarber adding another solo blast.
- The Angels used seven relievers in a bullpen game designed to give starters Yusei Kikuchi and José Soriano extra rest and avoid a hitter-friendly environment.
- The victory evened Los Angeles’ record at 49-49 and kept them four games back in the wild-card race with 12 games remaining before the July 31 trade deadline.
