ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Kyle Schwarber had a two-run single in the second inning, Alec Bohm extended his hitting streak to 15 games and the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Los Angeles Angels 2-1 on Wednesday. Philadelphia won the getaway game despite striking out 18 times, the 11th time since 1906 the team has whiffed at least that many times in a game. Nick Castellanos struck out four times for the fifth time in his career. “I haven’t seen that for awhile and don’t know what to attribute that to. I guess guys were making perfect pitches on us,” manager Rob Thomson said. “Today wasn’t our best day offensively but we grinded through it. You have to win those types of games when you’re not at your best.” Ehire Adrianza hit his first home run in nearly three years for the Angels, who went 3-6 on their homestand and have not won any of their five home series this season. |
