Betts’ home run in 15th gives Red Sox 7-6 win over Angels

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Mookie Betts’ went deep with two out in the 15th inning and the Boston Red Sox outlasted the Los Angeles Angels 7-6 Friday night.

Betts drove a cutter from Trevor Cahill (3-9) over the wall in left for his second home run of the game and 23rd of the season. It is the 15th multi-homer game of his career and second this season.

Betts — who had three hits — lined José Suarez’s fastball over the wall in left on the fifth pitch of the game for his second leadoff homer this season and 18th of his career. It is also the third time in Betts’ last four games at Angels Stadium that he has led off by putting a ball into the seats.

J.D. Martinez also went deep for Boston, which has homered in 19 straight games. That is tied with the 1996 squad for the second-longest streak in team history. The team record is 22 in 2016. Boston has 14 HRs and has won five of six on its road trip.

Andrew Cashner (11-7) pitched four scoreless innings for the win.

Brian Goodwin homered twice and Albert Pujols had four hits for the Angels, who have dropped eight of their last 10. It is the first time Pujols has had a four-hit game since 2017 and the seventh since joining the Angels in 2012.

Los Angeles trailed 4-0 after 2½ innings before rallying and tying it in the ninth.
