          Angels. They seem to have more determination and grit to fight it out. But, coming from me (i started watching baseball this year - did not even know the rules), I do not know how objective it is. Thomas

            It totally depends on the pitching. The Angels were dead in the water until they got 2 hits off Ortiz, then Baker panicked and brought in relievers, who promptly got knocked around for 6 runs. The Angels pitching has never been solid for the whole series, so I think the SF bullpen will decide the game. --Mike-- "I'd rather you just give me a fish today, because even if you teach me how to fish, I won't do it.

                Looked to me that way too Washburn looked like he wanted to get hit in that 14-6 match. Just out of curiosity, why can't Fransisco Roderiguez or Weber start for Angels - they look much better. Is there any strategy involved here?

                    It all depends on the ability of the pitcher. A starter is expected to throw over 100 pitches and work 6+ innings, and keep good pitch control throughout. Anyone who can't do that is a reliever. The guys who are closers like Percival usually throw really hard for 1 inning, maybe 2. --Mike-- "I'd rather you just give me a fish today, because even if you teach me how to fish, I won't do it.
