Was it really necessary to bring in Darren Oliver in a one run game in the 8th? Opponents were hitting .352 against him before today, and that will go up even more after he allowed two hits to the five batters he faced. Only ONCE this year has he gone at least 0.2 innings and put no runners on base. He has walked 8 batters, compared to 6 strikeouts. This "players can be good now even though they are old and have never been good anyways" approach does not work. Hillenbrand is another fine example of this, but at least he does not put the Angels farther behind.
This loss brought to you by: Oliver, Colon (4.1 IP, 6 ER, 10 H)
Did pretty well anyways: Matthews Jr. (3-for-5, 2 R), O-Cab (3-for-5, HR)
