Angels back out of Freeway Series Deal...
The Dodgers did their part and more with a 3-0 sweep of the loveable Cubbies. The Angels did nothing more than play generally bad baseball against a Boston team that out-pitched and out-defended them.
Who is to blame if you could blame just one guy?
Howie Kendrick
That's right - I know that he is young but he sucked crap all series. At the plate he was 2 for 17 with 2 singles and 7 k's. He had no walks. He left about 3000 runners on base but most importantly he mishandled a possible double play ball tonight that cost the Angels a run. Had he just got the lead runner on the play the Angels would have likely won on Torii Hunter's 2-run single in the 8th inning.
One man played great ball all series: Mark Texiera. Great with the glove and awesome at the plate. Hint to Arte Moreno: SIGN MARK TEXIERA!!!!!!!!!!!
