Game 3, L3-5

Swept by the Angels. Couldn't be a worse start. Couldn't have been a worse start to yesterday's game. Back-to-back out sum up yesterday's game. Michael Young smashes a ball to center and GMJ robs him of a home run to end the inning. GMJ leads off the next inning with an awkward bouncer that McCarthy and Kinsler can't handle and GMJ starts a four run first. Ridiculous.

McCarthy did settle down after that and didn't pitch terribly, but our bats are still MIA, and they're not in the outfield. Yesterday the Ranger's outfield of Wilk, Cruz, and Lofton went 2 for 11. When I add the DH (Cat) the group was 2 for 14 with 6 strikeouts, and I bet a bunch of those were looking. How many times are we going to let third strikes go by. Working the count is definitely new for these guys.

Glad to have the day off, but Boston coming to town doesn't mean thing will get easier. Maybe some home cooking with get the guys going.
