So long Anaheim

I’m so glad that the Anaheim series is over. We lost 9-4, 7-5, and 21-6. That was incredibly painful to watch. The Angels are a hungry team with an offense that scores a ton of runs–as evidenced by the 21 runs they scored last night.

The two bright spots during the series was the emergence of Calvin Pickering and the continued hitting tear that David DeJesus is on. Everybody knows what Pickering did–blasting three HRs and driving in 11 RBIs.
David DeJesus had another four hits last night, bringing his average up to .288 and he hit his second home run of the season. He continues to play well defensively and it looks like Baird had it right concerning DeJesus being the center fielder of the future.

Tony Pena had a funny comment about the game last night–if you can get past the butt kicking that we got. “I think if we bounced the ball up there, they still would have hit it.”
