Angels v. Red Sox

Angels v. Red Sox

Lackey v. Wakefield

Looking to this series I think the Angels have a very good chance of taking 3 out of 4. I know that the Angels just don’t play well at Fenway and I also know that Lackey doesn’t pitch that well at Fenway, but this is the 2007 Angels and things are going to be different, starting with tonight. Maybe I should clarify a little bit. If we can win tonight’s game I think there’s an awful good chance that we could take 3 of 4. But, as I see it we either win 3 of 4 or lose 3 of 4, no split this weekend. Tomorrow’s game is a loss unless by some miracle Carrasco can out pitch Schilling. Who knows, maybe Schilling will eat one too many ice cream sandwiches on the way to the park and be too full to pitch effectively.

I like Lackey to pitch well in this one and do his best to keep those sleeping giants in the middle of the order in lock down mode. The key for the offense tonight is patience. Sit back and see if Wakefield is throwing that slop for strikes. Swinging early and often against a junk pitcher is not the best of strategies.

A little birdy told me that Vlad will go downtown tonight. He will need to.

This one stays close, Angels win 4-3
