Can’t surrender a 5-1 lead, especially on the road against the Rod Sux, and expect to win down the stretch. Seems like Angels pitchers were tapdancing around the plate all night . Boston has a hot lineup right now, but too much nibbling ended up in hitters’ counts…
the best game we played in the ALDS last season was the game he pitched… we gotta get to him early and FINISH THEM OFF or HANG ON… i dont care which as long as we got a “W”
equally as bad as weaver tonight
was vlad. WTF he got so many chances to drive in runs and goes 0-5 with 5 LOB and 2 Ks.

fun game to watch
angels ended up on the wrong side of it. that’s what you get when you blow a 4-run lead.
yeswecan - April 22, 2008
we are
officially peyton manning and the colts circa 2004-5
we are absolutely snakebitten in boston.
and weaver doesnt know how to pitch to this lineup at ALL. hes a lock for 2-3 HR everytime we play the sox
ihearhowie2.0 - April 22, 2008
Will just make it sweeter when we destroy them in the post-season.
Which will happen.
Right?
Mayheminthehood - April 22, 2008
its too bad
i was hoping weaver to stick it out til the 8th and go out with a david ortiz beaning whilst still being up 5-1 or so

BOG weaver
spotted a 5-1 lead after his tough start all he had to do was get thru 2 more innings… Vlad a close 2nd he’s swinging at terrible pitches…even for him
BigBangRobbDawgg - April 22, 2008
Angels need to get all Daniel Plainview on the Red Sox...
and DRILL the hell out of them.
Then we’ll drink their milkshakes.
Mayheminthehood - April 22, 2008
Agreed - BOG goes to Weaver

ALL REGULAR SEASON
Weaver has pussyfooted around the zone and gotten burned by it. It’s just more apparent in Boston.
For all that he had a great spring, his regular season has been a disappointment so far.

Lord Aybar!
I miss my Vlady.

Watching the #1 pitcher in our rotation give back a four run lead makes me miss Lackey.
Nice to see Kotch make the most of his chance against a lefty. Hopefully Mike took note.
I think it’s been mentioned before, but drop GA to the 3 hole?

Vlad
easy choice, or scioscia if you beleive proper bullpn management is the only major responsibility of a manager.
Carl Johnson - April 22, 2008
Tough to blame Little Weav..
2 of the 5 runs were guys who got on with 0-2 check swing hits. Tough night all around, tough game to lose.
Will someone with skills please make me a Calvin tinkling on Fenway shot.

Tie: Weaver and Vlad
Man, ya think we’re gonna win it, then it slips away.
vladtheimpaler - April 22, 2008
im starting to think weaver has maxed out his potential. when are you gonna have your “best stuff” jered?
stezo - April 22, 2008
Yup
Is his rookie season the best we’re ever going to see from him?
scareduck - April 22, 2008
Someone scored a Perfect Perfect!
scottnak - April 22, 2008
I should have not had the plus or minus ten but WOOOOO – I nailed it for once, nailed my own damn game!
Rev Halofan - April 23, 2008
Hey Rev,
I think you deserve an extra point for nailing the pitch count right on the nose.
Scott, give this man a 4th point, he earned it!
billhune - April 23, 2008
I'm sorry if I said something to offend you
I won’t do it again (the power some people have!). Please re-check and add me to the results, your greatness.

vladtheimpaler - April 23, 2008
HEY SCOTT
vladtheimpaler had 85-6-kotchman – did you see it?
Rev Halofan - April 23, 2008
Thanks Rev
vladtheimpaler - April 23, 2008
Odd Miss!
I have added it in my personal copy. May be reflected online if I feel like it.
You got your 3 points :)
