Final Score in Washington State: Mariners 1, Angels 0
Ervin Santana pitched a gem in the emerald city, but Brandon Wood is back in the AAA Salt mine, and with an AWOL offense, the Halos lost 1-0 to a Chris Jakubauskas, a Mariner pitcher who lowered his ERA to 6.10 with 6 shutout innings.
Howie Kendrick would seem just about ready to get demoted to AAA or at least put to work selling cotton candy in the aisles at the Big A by next week. After two batters walked to load the bases in the top of the 4th inning, Kendrick swung at the first pitch and hit a weak fly out. Torii Hunter, who had doubled with two out to start the would-be rally, was as close as the Angels got to a run tonight, stranded on 3B.
Santana pitched 6 and 2/3 innings of 1 run ball, allowing 5 hits, lowering his ERA to 3.09 in his 2nd start of the season. His 3 strikeouts on the evening pushed him to sole possession of 16th place on the Angels all-time Strikeouts list, surpassing Francisco Rodriguez, 588 Ks as an Angel to Frankie's 587.
Otherwise, this game blew chunks, and the chunkiest thing in Seattle is raw oysters, so there is your unappealing visual of what this game really looked like. Blechhh.

Nothing universally creeps people out like an impalement.
I was’nt going to post anything but this game pissed me off that much.
44FAN - May 20, 2009
Favorite Facebook group so far
“Not being impaled”
scareduck - May 20, 2009
That's funny.....I thought you were kidding until I looked it up.
Reading HH post game threads is better than being impaled.
44FAN - May 20, 2009
Vladtheimpaler may disagree...

WillGoAngels27 - May 20, 2009
Gosh I wonder if
Wood and S-Rod have more HRs than our whole team yet? Gosh sure glad there down in AAA winning games for them.
angelskid2210 - May 20, 2009

Like JAngel getting a -1
WillGoAngels27 - May 20, 2009

Ah i see
WillGoAngels27 - May 20, 2009
3x or more in a row
Just hopefully some way to tell the person that they’re not reading the rules…
scottnak - May 21, 2009
We should have traded Howie for Miguel Cabrera...
Now we couldn’t even get Angel Cabrera for him.
Howie sucks.
bc56274 - May 20, 2009
They better not F around going into the Dodgers series
They aren’t losing many.
chairmanofthebar - May 20, 2009
I'm watching "Dodgers Live"
and they were saying ‘Sorry! You’re facing the Bills!" (Chad Billingsley) Geez they’re idiots, although we’re not any better…except for Jose Mota…
Figgi4life - May 20, 2009
I just want to know
how the hell THIS team is just one game over .500. WTF???

How about Mathis's great defense
Maybe Kendrick and Wood could trade places for a week or so, and let’s see what happens. If Wood blows like last year in the time he gets than O well.
Big Bad, 'Vlad'! - May 20, 2009
Maybe
we could get a hitting coach who can actually help the hitters?
anaheimisnotla - May 20, 2009
The Howie (signature) boys
Need to come out and fight these guys. Stick up for your boy. C’mon guys, have a thick skin and fight back!
For instance: “I’m writing down all of your names, when Howie bounces back and becomes the player we all know he can become then I will call all of yuse guys out!”
vladtheimpaler - May 21, 2009
dude you have too much time on your hands then.....
lol
norcaliangelsfan - May 21, 2009
Actually, if Vlad has a slow start
These guys here will start raking him over the coals. And I will be too lazy to take the advice I gave to the Howie boys. But I’m ready for battle.
vladtheimpaler - May 21, 2009
raven191 is right behind you! ;)

Are you channelling GA or something?
“And I will be too lazy …”

The difference between me and GA
I’m actually lazy.
