Angels outlast Yankees in extra innings of pitchers’ duel

Nolan Schanuel hit a tiebreaking broken-bat double with one out in the 11th inning and the Los Angeles Angels hung on for a 1-0 victory over the host New York Yankees on Monday night.
After Zach Neto popped out on a bunt, Schanuel hit a ground ball off Jonathan Loaisiga (0-1) down the left field line and easily scored automatic runner Christian Moore.
The Angels loaded the bases when Taylor Ward walked following an intentional free pass to Mike Trout but were unable to score again off Loaisiga.
The Yankees had a chance to rally in the bottom half when Brock Burke loaded the bases, but Hunter Strickland retired Anthony Volpe on one pitch to end it. After Aaron Judge was intentionally walked for the second time, Cody Bellinger advanced automatic runner Paul Goldschmidt to third on a flyball to the right field warning track. Goldschmidt was thrown out at the plate by Moore but Jazz Chisholm Jr. kept the inning going with an infield hit.
Schanuel’s go-ahead RBI prevented the Angels from dropping a fourth straight game and gave them their first 1-0 win over the Yankees since Aug. 1, 2008, in New York.
Ryan Zeferjahn (4-1) worked a perfect 10th after Kenley Jansen kept the game scoreless in the ninth.
The Yankees lost their season-high fourth straight and were 1-for-18 with runners in scoring position.
New York slugger Giancarlo Stanton went 2-for-4 after missing the first 70 games with inflammation in both elbows. He capped his first game appearance since Game 5 of the World Series by hitting a double down the left field line to start the ninth against Jansen, who kept the game scoreless by striking out Austin Wells with Anthony Volpe on second.
Before Schanuel’s game-winner, the Angels mustered four hits off New York starter Clarke Schmidt in 7 2/3 innings.
Schmidt allowed singles to two of the first three hitters when Zach Neto and Trout reached. After Trout’s hit, he retired 16 straight before Schanuel singled when Cody Bellinger was unable to make a sliding catch in left field.
Schmidt then retired seven straight until Moore tripled to right field for his first career hit.
Los Angeles starter Jose Soriano allowed six hits in seven innings. Coming off a 12-strikeout performance against the A’s in his previous start, Soriano struck out six and walked one.
