Jose Caballero hit a game-ending two-run double with one out in the ninth inning off Jordan Romano, and the New York Yankees earned a 5-4 victory over the visiting Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday night.

The Yankees had runners on first and second after Jazz Chisholm Jr. reached on an infield single when his pop up fell between Zach Neto and third baseman Oswald Peraza. After Chisholm stole second, Wells worked out a full-count walk.

Caballero followed by lining a 1-2 slider from Romano (0-2) to center field to easily score Chisholm. Mike Trout fielded the ball and made a relay throw to shortstop Zach Neto. Wells scored from first base, as the throw was to the first base side of the plate.

Wells slid in ahead of the throw and just avoided the tag of catcher Logan O'Hoppe. His run was upheld after the Angels challenged the call by plate umpire Lance Barksdale.

Caballero factored in New York's second walk-off in three nights. On Monday he scored the game-winning run in the ninth on Romano's wild pitch to give the Yankees an 11-10 win.

The Yankees won for the second time in eight games after losing an early three-run lead.

Trout hit a two-run homer with one out in the fifth off Luis Gil to give the Yankees a 4-3 lead. O'Hoppe started the fifth with a homer, and Adam Frazier homered in the third off Gil.

Trout became the first visiting player to homer in three straight days at Yankee Stadium since Miguel Cabrera Aug. 9-11, 2013, for the Detroit Tigers.

Los Angeles starter Jack Kochanowicz allowed three runs on four hits in 6 2/3 innings.

Aaron Judge homered for the fourth time in as many games hitting a 1-2 sinker to right field in the first inning. Trent Grisham hit a two-run single in the second when five of New York's first 10 hitters reached base.

Gil allowed four runs on five hits in five innings. The right-hander struck out five and walked two.

Four relievers followed Gil with four scoreless innings and David Bednar (1-2) pitched the ninth to set up the rally.
