We had some opportunities on the offensive side. We got into a position but we fell short.
We kept waiting for him to show the wear and tear,
We were not very good on the mound. That was the story.
Walking around town, I had people coming up to me just thanking me for their grandparents who were deceased that were Angel fans back in the early 1960s.
We had to pitch well tonight. John did a great job, along with Scot and Frankie. We got some big two-out hits, which were important.
We had to pitch our butts off the whole series. We didn't have a lot of options at that point, but we had a lot of confidence in Ervin. Ervin Santana 's the story tonight.

We're going to need Tim and it was good to see him square one up.
What he has to do now is regain some stamina to become a starter again. He has as good a stuff as anyone.
