Taylor Ward Crushes Game-Winning Grand Slam
Taylor Ward hit the go-ahead grand slam with two outs in the ninth inning on Monday night, giving the Angels a 9-5 victory over the Padres. Ward's ninth home run of the year came off relief pitcher Alek Jacob, who came on in relief of Robert Suarez, who was charged with a blown save and the loss. Ward is still hitting just .190 on the season, but his power production has been decent with nine home runs and 21 RBI in 31 games. He has three home runs and three multi-hit games over his last seven games and is still hitting the ball hard despite his low batting average. When he's hot, he can definitely be mixed-league material, so watch closely to see if he can turn this recent surge into a full-blown heater.
