Edmundo Sosa's Grand Slam Leads Phillies to Comeback Victory Over Angels

In a thrilling game at Angel Stadium, Edmundo Sosa hit a go-ahead grand slam, leading the Philadelphia Phillies to a 5-3 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. The win came after a dramatic ninth inning where the Phillies were on the brink of defeat, having two outs and no runs before Sosa's decisive hit.

This victory marked the Phillies' fourth go-ahead homer with two outs in the ninth inning this season, a feat unmatched by any other team. The team has shown resilience, having erased multi-run deficits in two of their last three wins, including a recent comeback against the Cardinals.

Sosa's performance in August has been notable, with a batting average of .435 and a slugging percentage of .783. Despite some earlier missteps in the game, including a baserunning blunder and a double play, the Phillies managed to secure a crucial win as they aim for a postseason berth, currently sitting 3.5 games ahead of a playoff spot.
