Adell homers, Angels rally past Pirates 5
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Jo Adell hit his fifth homer of the season and added an RBI single and the Los Angeles Angels slipped by the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-4 on Wednesday.
Brandon Drury doubled twice, including a shot to the wall in left during a three-run outburst in the sixth by Los Angeles, before leaving with left hamstring tightness. Drury will be evaluated when the Angels return home on Thursday.
Zach Neto added two hits for Los Angeles. Kevin Pillar, a day removed from six RBIs in a shutout win, had a hit and scored a run for Los Angeles. Adam Cimber (3-0) worked 1 1/3 innings of scoreless relief. Carlos Estévez worked a perfect ninth for his sixth save.
“That’s what I’ve been talking about all year, trying to string some stuff together and see what happens and we did (in the sixth),” Angels manager Ron Washington said. “Nobody went up there trying to do more than the situation indicated that needed to be done. Now we are still trying to look for that word ‘sustain’ and get consistent.”
