Mathis' RBI double in 11th wins it for Angels

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -Jeff Mathis hit a two-out double in the 11th inning to drive home the winning run and the Los Angeles Angels survived a second straight thriller for a 5-4 victory over the Yankees on Monday, trimming New York's lead in the AL championship series to 2-1.

Howie Kendrick homered, tripled and then singled with two outs in the 11th. Mathis followed with his drive up against the left-field wall, and Kendrick slid home well ahead of a desperate throw.

Mathis, the Angels' backup catcher, came up with his third late-inning, extra-base hit of this crazy series.

Vladimir Guerrero also homered as the Angels overcame a midgame 3-0 deficit and four solo homers by the Yankees' stars, including Jorge Posada's tying solo shot in the eighth.
