Angels 10, BoSox 7
- It was fun to watch, but boy was it ugly.
- Washburn has been living dangerously this entire season (as evidenced by his 1.51 WHIP entering tonight's start), and the wheels finally came off. I'm surprised he hasn't been blown up like this a couple of times this season.
It is now abundantly clear: this team does not have the starting pitching to be considered a title contender.
- David Eckstein: 5 for 5, extending his hit-streak to 17 games, and raising his BA to .298 in the process.
- Chone Figgins: 3 for 4, with a walk. Chone has come back to life upon his return to California.
- Vlad Guerrero: 4 for 4, with 2 HR, 2B, and 9 RBI. Just amazing.
- Angels 1-2-3 hitters: 12 for 13, BB, 2 HR, 2 2B, and 10 RBI. Who needs the G-String?
- K-Rod was used in a save situation tonight. Has Mike Scioscia taken the bold step of replacing Percival in the closer's role? I doubt it.
Even with Percival struggling mightly, moving K-Rod to the closer's role is not a smart move.
- Raul came through with his first hit as an Angel, but most importantly he has looked decent in center. I forgot how fast he is- it's a nice little surprise.
I haven't been in a blogging sort of mood lately, but I promise to post something worth reading tomorrow.
