Edmundo Sosa’s pinch-hit grand slam in 9th propels Phillies to a wild 5-3 win over Angels

Edmundo Sosa hit his first career grand slam in the ninth inning, sparking a 5-3 victory for the Philadelphia Phillies over the Los Angeles Angels. Following a three-run first inning where Alex McFarlane (4-1) pitched, the Phillies mounted a comeback. J.T. Realmuto drew a walk, loading the bases and dismissing shaky closer Ben Joyce, allowing Sosa to crush a low changeup from Sammy Peralta 404 feet to center field. Despite a late rally, the Angels lost their fifth straight game due to a bullpen collapse.
