Ervin Not Deservin': Marlins 7, Angels 5
Was there some reason AK was out today? I was surprised -- shocked, really -- to see him replaced by Chone Figgins, especially with Kennedy's bat so hot lately. It didn't matter much, though, as the Angels got blown apart by a really awful outing by Ervin Santana, whose ERA now baloons to 5.73. Yikes. Just as crazy, Esteban Yan has not had an earned run in June, and only surrendered three hits and a walk. Scioscia says it's because of better setup mechanics:
"He had a couple of different setups that were contributing to his inconsistency," manager Mike Scioscia said. "He has his balance now and he has his load. Those are two important aspects of pitching."Richard noticed that, in addition to Erstad's remarkable hitting streak, he's now getting walks "in bunches". Good stuff.
Even though the Angels lost, it was made tolerable by the relatively close score. This club's actually not doing too bad.
