Angels right-hander Parker Bridwell threw a first-pitch curveball to Williams for a strike to start the plate appearance. He followed with a changeup, and Williams smashed it 397 feet to hand the Phillies a 2-1 lead. Angels center fielder Mike Trout jumped at the wall and nearly robbed Williams of the home run, but the ball tipped off the top of his glove and carried over the fence.
"I thought it was going to be caught at the last minute," Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said.
Williams went 3-for-4 with two doubles and the home run in the series finale.
