The Angels avoided losing a heartbreaker on Friday night, as they defeated the D-Backs in extras, 6-5. LA was one strike away from winning in the ninth, but a homer from Eduardo Escobar tied it up.
Luckily the Halos were able to put a run on the board in the 10th and hold Arizona in the bottom half of the inning, leaving with the crucial victory. For the Angels, this is now their fourth consecutive victory and they’ve won six of their last seven games.
The Angels are now 31-32 on the season. They’re six games back in the division and five games back in the wild card.
