Dustin Moseley v. Jeremy Sowers
The Angels and Indians will play the rubber game of their 3 game series today, following a terrific performance by Joe Saunders and the bullpen last night. Dustin Moseley takes the mound for the first time since an outstanding season debut against the Oakland Athletics last Friday night.
Moseley has a tough task ahead of him as the Indians present one of the more formidable hitting line ups in all of baseball. The Angels would love nothing more than to leave Milwaukee with a series win, especially since they will spend the next four days at Boston’s Fenway Park, against the Red Sox, who have handled the Angels over the past few seasons.
I expect a high scoring affair. Mike Scioscia finally received some clutch hitting from his offense yesterday and it appears as though the Angel bats are ready to explode. Vladimir Guerrero has been held in check over the past few games and could very well take out his frustration on Jeremy Sowers, the Cleveland starter. Howie Kendrick looks to be settling into the line-up and Garret Anderson need only some more RBI oppurtunities, as he is off to a good start with the bat.
So onto the prediction. I think the Angel bats will wake up and put up a crooked number for the first time this year. I’m feeling double digits. And they might need every run they score as Cleveland can be expected to get to Moseley at some point.
Angels take this one 11-7. Kendrick, Kotchman and Molina go deep.
