Angels 2, Rangers 0
I know I've said this before, but welcome back Bart! Tonight was, without a doubt, his best performance of the season. He had good velocity (95-97 mph) for the third straight start, and his breaking stuff is looking very sharp. He's finally got it all back. For real this time.
So with tonight's win we're 4 games out in the division and 2.5 out of the wild card. With another win tomorrow we'll be right back in striking distance of the Rangers. I'm not sure how much that really matters, as I'm reasonably sure that the house of cards that is the Rangers' pitching will collapse any day now. Oakland is who we really need to watch.
Is a solid team like the A's catchable the way we're playing right now? Hell no. But we do still have time to pull it together. I just can't share in Rob's pessimistic view that the season is over.
