ANAHEIM, Calif. -- Mike Trout greeted Brad Boxberger with a three-run walkoff homer to cap a four-run ninth inning and give the Los Angeles Angels a 6-5 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday night in the opener of a four-game series. Rays closer Grant Balfour came on in the ninth to try and protect a 5-2 lead for Erik Bedard, but walked his first two batters before giving up an RBI single by Collin Cowgill. Trout jumped on a 1-1 pitch from Boxberger (0-1) and drove it into the top tier of the double-decker bullpen in left field for his eighth homer. Fernando Salas (3-0) pitched a perfect inning to get the victory. Angels manager Mike Scioscia won two replay challenges with his team at bat. Both were against second base umpire Jim Reynolds on tag plays in the fifth and seventh innings, although the Angels didnt score in either inning. Angels starter Tyler Skaggs gave up five runs and eight hits in six-plus innings, remaining winless in five starts at Angel Stadium this season with a 6.91 ERA. Brandon Guyer hit his first home run of the season and centre fielder Desmond Jennings robbed C.J. Cron of a two-run homer as Bedard took a 4-0 lead into the sixth. The left-hander was charged with two unearned runs and four hits through 5 2-3 innings and struck out five. Rays first baseman James Loney, playing in on the grass, allowed a two-out grounder by Erick Aybar to get under his glove with runners at the corners in the sixth. Howie Kendrick scored on Loneys third error of the season, ending a string of 22 consecutive scoreless innings by Tampa Bay pitchers -- five short of the franchise record set last September. Pinch-hitter Raul Ibanez greeted Brandon Gomes with an RBI single before Jake McGee came in and struck out Grant Green. Guyer chased Skaggs with a leadoff homer in the seventh to give Tampa Bay a three-run lead. In the fourth, Jennings took away Crons bid for his third big league homer and first at Angel Stadium with a leaping grab in left-centre -- two innings after Guyer raced in from left field to make a diving grab of Crons Texas Leaguer. Thanks to Jennings catch, Bedard has thrown 46 1-3 consecutive innings without allowing a home run since last Sept. 16, when he was pitching for Houston and gave up a 2-run shot by Cincinnatis Zack Cozart at Minute Maid Park. Tampa Bay scored three runs in the sixth. Jimenez, making his fifth start at third base while David Freese remains on the disabled list, went into the hole for Wil Myers sixth-inning grounder with Aybar standing right behind Jimenez waiting for the ball. It deflected off Jimenezs glove and into short left field, and Myers was credited with an RBI double. Loney, who leads Tampa Bay with 24 RBIs, doubled inside first base two batters later to drive in another run. NOTES: The Rays put switch-hitting 2B Ben Zobrist on the 15-day DL because of a dislocated left thumb, which he injured on a headfirst slide while trying to steal second base in Wednesdays 2-0 victory at Seattle. The nine-year veteran doesnt intend to abandon the headfirst approach. "Ill keep sliding headfirst -- probably with an oven mitt on my hand, or something to protect it," he joked. ... Angels LF Josh Hamilton, who hasnt played since tearing a ligament in his left thumb on a headfirst slide into first base April 8, took live batting practice for the first time since the injury and is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment late next week. ... Rays RHP Alex Cobb, sidelined since April 13 because of an oblique strain on his left side, is scheduled to make a rehab start on Saturday with Class-A Charlotte and will be limited to five innings or 75 pitches.

Washington got some good news off the field, too. Zimmerman singled in the go-ahead run with two outs in the 10th, and Jayson Werth homered and had three RBIs to lead the Nationals to a 5-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday night. Ross Detwiler (1-2), one of six Washington pitchers, tossed a scoreless ninth to earn the victory. Philadelphias season-best, five-game winning streak was snapped. The Nationals also found out on Saturday that right-hander Jordan Zimmermann, who had Tommy John surgery in August 2009, doesnt have structural damage to his throwing shoulder or elbow now. Zimmermann abruptly left Fridays start in the fourth inning due to arm pain. However, an MRI revealed a biceps strain that likely wont cost him a start. "Thats a big relief for us," Nationals manager Matt Williams said. Zimmermann was slated to participate in his second straight All-Star Game on Tuesday, but he wont make the trip to Minneapolis. He was replaced on the NL roster by Marlins right-hander Henderson Alvarez. "I feel pretty good today," Zimmermann said. "I expect it to get better every day." His teammates were feeling good, as well, after gutting out an extra-inning win over Philadelphia. "Huge win coming back with a day game (Sunday) right before the All-Star break," Ryan Zimmerman said. Rafael Soriano struck out the side in the 10th for his 22nd save. Washingtons Stephen Strasburg struck out nine in 5 2/3 innings and was in line for the victory before Ben Reveres RBI single with two outs in the eighth tied it 3-3. Marlon Byrd had two hits and two RBIs, and Revere had a pair of hits for the Phillies. The Nationals went ahead in the 10th against Jake Diekman (3-3). Denard Span led off with a walk, and after Anthony Rendon lined out to right, Werth hit a chopper to second baseman Chase Utley. He tried to get the force at second, but Span was safe. "I thought we had a play," Utley said. "It didnt work out in our favour. It was a big play. I tried to get it to him quickly. It didnt work." Diekman struck out Adam LaRoche before Zimmerman singled to centre to score Span and give the Nationals a 4-3 lead. "Hes been clutch his whole career," Strasburg said. Werth went to third on Revveres throw and scored on a wild pitch.dddddddddddd Diekman was ejected by home-plate umpire Andy Fletcher following the inning. "I asked, Were any of those close?" Diekman said. "With a smirk on his face, he said, What pitches? With a grin on his face, he told me I was kicked out of the game. Thats literally what I said." Strasburg gave up two runs and seven hits in a matchup of aces with Philadelphias Cole Hamels. "He made pitches when he had to," Williams said. Hamels surrendered three runs and four hits, striking out five and walking three, in seven strong innings. It was the 11th time in 13 starts the left-hander has gone at least seven innings, but he continued to be a victim of lack of run support. The Phillies offence averaged 6.2 runs during their winning streak but managed just two for Hamels. The Nationals got on the board in the first when Span scored on Werths groundout. Ian Desmond, who returned to the lineup after missing Fridays game with a right thumb injury, led off the second with a double. Hamels then retired 12 of the next 13 batters before walking Rendon to lead off the sixth. Werth followed with an opposite-field homer, his 11th, to put Washington in front 3-0. The Phillies couldnt muster much offence against Strasburg until the sixth. After walking Grady Sizemore to lead off the third, Strasburg retired the next nine batters before Jimmy Rollins leadoff single in the sixth. Utley followed with a single to put runners on first and second. After an out, the Phillies executed a double-steal, moving runners to second and third. Both scored on Byrds single to left that pulled Philadelphia within 3-2. Strasburg struck out Cody Asche for the second out but was lifted after walking Cameron Rupp to put runners on first and second. Jerry Blevins relieved Strasburg and got Revere to line out to left. Revere came up big for the Phillies in the eighth when he singled home the tying run with two outs off Tyler Clippard. NOTES: Nationals C Wilson Ramos went 0-for-4 to end his 14-game hitting streak. ... Washingtons Scott Hairston started in place of Bryce Harper in left. Hairston entered batting .395 (15-for-38) with five homers against Hamels and went 1-for-3 against the lefty. ... The teams complete their series on Sunday when Washington RHP Tanner Roark (7-6, 3.12) opposes Phillies RHP Kyle Kendrick (4-8, 4.46).
