Shohei Ohtani stole two bases — including a steal of home — but the hero of the night for the Angels was journeyman reliever Jake Petricka, whose eighth-inning performance helped Los Angeles hang on for a 6-4 victory over the New York Yankees on Tuesday in Anaheim, California.
Jared Walsh hit a three-run homer and Phil Gosselin had a clutch two-run single for the Angels, who have won three in a row including the first two of the three-game series with New York.
After winning 13 in a row the Yankees have lost four straight, but they didn't go down quietly.
