The Los Angeles Angels won the last game of their three-game series over the Washington Nationals, 5-4, with a late rally led by Shohei Ohtani and Anthony Rendon at home to keep a half game lead in the AL West Division on Sunday.

With little offense on the day, the Angels were down 4–2 ahead of the ninth inning. Pinch-hitter Luis Rengifo then walked after Jack Mayfield was struck out by Washington pitcher Tanner Rainey.
