Adam Kennedy equalled a post-season record by hitting three home runs as Anaheim Angels reached the World Series on Sunday night, closing out the Minnesota Twins 13-5 in Game Five of the American League Championship Series.

After Minnesota rallied for three runs in the top of the seventh to take a 5-3 lead, the Angels overwhelmed the Twins in the bottom of the inning.

In the World Series the Angels will play either St Louis Cardinals or San Francisco Giants, who won 4-3 on Sunday. San Francisco lead 3-1 in the best-of-seven National League Championship Series.
