Kwan and Bazzana lift streaking Guardians to 4-3 comeback win over Angels

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) --- Steven Kwan hit a tying double in the ninth inning,
Travis Bazzana followed with a sacrifice fly and the Cleveland Guardians
rallied past the Los Angeles Angels 4-3 on Wednesday for their seventh straight
victory.
Hunter Gaddis (2-3) retired the final two batters in the eighth to earn the
win. Erik Sabrowski worked a scoreless ninth for his second major league save
and first since 2024.
With a runner on second, Sabrowski struck out pinch-hitter Travis d'Arnaud and
got pinch-hitter Oswald Peraza to pop up to second as Cleveland completed a
three-game sweep.
Chase DeLauter, slowed this week by left hamstring tightness, sparked the
winning rally with a one-out single off reliever Ryan Watson (1-1) in the ninth.
Petey Halpin ran for DeLauter and went to second on Brayan Rocchio's single.
Kwan roped a ground-rule double to right field for a 3-all tie, and Bazzana's
sac fly sent the Angels to their 10th loss this season when leading after eight
innings.
Los Angeles starter Grayson Rodriguez gave up one run and seven hits in 5 2/3
innings, striking out four and walking one. Guardians starter Joey Cantillo
allowed two hits in six innings but issued a career-high seven walks and
committed a first-inning error that led to a run.
Zach Neto led off the bottom of the first with a single and scored when
Cantillo fielded Vaughn Grissom's one-out dribbler and threw the ball into
right field.
The Angels extended the lead to 3-0 in the second when Cantillo walked the
bases loaded with one out, hit Neto with a pitch to force in a run, and Mike
Trout added a sacrifice fly.
Cleveland cut it to 3-1 in the fifth when Rocchio doubled, went to third on
Kwan's groundout and scored on Bazzana's sacrifice fly. The Guardians pulled to
3-2 in the eighth when Bazzana bunted for a single, Jo Adell walked and
Nathaniel Lowe flared an RBI single to left-center.
Up next Guardians: RHP Tanner Bibee (5-13, 3.97 ERA) starts Friday night in Kansas City. Angels: LHP Reid Detmers (4-8, 3.62 ERA) faces Phillies RHP Andrew Painter (3-8, 6.04) on Friday night in Anaheim. ___ See AP's full MLB coverage here
