Los Angeles Angels Baseball Blog » Dustin Moseley http://www.angelshomeplate.com A blog about Los Angeles Angels Baseball Mon, 06 Feb 2012 14:51:08 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 Angels can’t handle the A’s as they lose 15-8 http://www.angelshomeplate.com/angels-cant-handle-the-as-as-they-lose-15-8/ http://www.angelshomeplate.com/angels-cant-handle-the-as-as-they-lose-15-8/#comments Fri, 02 May 2008 15:57:40 +0000 GoHalos http://www.angelshomeplate.com/angels-cant-handle-the-as-as-they-lose-15-8/ The Los Angeles Angels and Oakland Athletics were tied 6-6 heading into the sixth inning but that was when the Athletics poured it on with eight runs in the inning.  The Angels couldn’t quite come back from that defecit as they lost to the A’s 15-8 on Thursday night.

Dustin Moseley pitched two innings of relief and took the loss for the Angels.  Seven hits and five runs in didn’t quite get the job done lol.  Starting pitcher Nick Adenhart only lasted two innings as he gave up three hits and five runs.  Darren O’Day also struggled as he only recorded two outs while giving up four hits and four runs.  Chris Bootcheck gave up another un in his 3.1 innings of action.  As you can see, the Angels pitching straff dropped the ball in the game and they all pretty threw the ball poorly.

Erick Aybar hit his first home run of the season when he hit a three run home run in the second inning.  Mike Napoli also had a solo home run in the fourth inning.  Besides Aybar’s three RBI, Napoli’s two RBI,  Mike Brown had two RBI and Gary Matthews Jr. had one RBI.

The Angels usually win the game when they score eight runs, but not when your pitching staff gives up 15 runs like on Thursday night.  The Angels will now play a three game series against the Baltimore Orioles.

Dustin Moseley got the day started off for the Angels with only four and two thirds innings pitched giving up eight hits and four runs.  Los Angeles brought in Darren O’Day, Chris Bootcheck, and Jason Bulger to take over the pitching but still couldn’t get their offense running well enough to take the win.

Gary Matthews Jr. picked up both RBI for the Angeles when he singled in the ninth inning.

If the Angels want to hold the number one spot for the American League West, they need to work hard because they are up against last year’s World Series winners the Red Sox in Boston starting on Tuesday.

Dustin Moseley took the loss for the Angels as he pitched five innings giving up six hits and five earned runs.  Jason Bulger came in and gave up one earned run, but the Rangers blew it open when Rich Thompson came in and gave up another five earned runs.

The Angels offense didn’t do anything until the ninth inning when they finally decided to put the ball in play and score some runs.  The Angels pushed across six runs in the bottom of the ninth but it clearly wasn’t enough to get the victory.
