The Angels finally found a way to beat the Red Sox last night by keeping them up till 3am. It was bullshit, and the only reason they had to play it out last night is because the Angels didn't want to play a doubleheader today. Whatever, fuck'em...
Today we got Lackey going against Joel Pineiro. This will be Pineiro's 2nd start after opening the season on the DL with shoulder issues. Pineiro gave up 1 run and 4 hits over 7 innings Saturday, but didn't get a decision as the Angels lost 2-1 to the Rays.
Lackey usually pitches well against the AL West, so I have some faith that he will be decent today. On the season Lackey is 2-3 5.65 ERA, but is 4-0 against the Angels with a 2.45 ERA against his former team.
Ortiz has crushed Pinerio in his career going 11 for 25 with 3HRs and 3 doubles. I think the Red Sox are going to crush the Angels today, and hopefully Ortiz will lead the charge.
Red Sox win 8-4
