Angels Get Hard-Earned Win, Stop Mariners, 12-11
In a high-scoring game between California and Seattle, catcher Jorge Posada was a difference-maker. The 26-year-old helped California grab the 12-11 win. He belted 2 home runs. He scored 4 times and drove in 5. California reliever Christopher Connolly picked up the win, upping his record to 4-2. Jeff Hirsch took the loss. Darren Dreifort finished to wrap up his 11th save.

Posada had a game-changing triple in the top of the tenth. On a first pitch sinker from Jeff Hirsch, he banged a run-scoring triple to right, giving the Angels a 12-11 lead. It was the 2nd triple of the year for Posada.

"It was terrific getting this win," Posada said. "We put in a lot of work to do it."

California goes to 75-85, Seattle to 89-71.
