With Apologies To Al Greene: Angels 10, Rangers 3
I don't know why love 'em like I doWell, yes, and Juan surely is having a second half to remember, .365/.389/.741 with eight homers after the break. Santana got over his daytime jinx and handed the Rangers another loss, and considering the firepower in that lineup, three earned over eight is nothing to sneeze at. Vlad of course managed four walks, and terminated his consecutive hit streak against the Rangers with a tricky play by right fielder Mark DeRosa, who appeared to cradle the ball between his arm and his glove on a tumbling catch in deep right field near the low wall.
All that whiffing that they put me through
Walking Vladdy, the Halos' "lone" threat
Then Rivera went yard, to the Rangers' regret
I wanna know, can you tell me? I love to say:
Take me to Rivera, let 'em walk Guerrero
Take me to Rivera, let 'em walk Guerrero
Watch as he slamsDon't know why they're playing so bad
Figgins at leadoff is making me sad
The rest of the bats, I'd like to forget
But nineteen dongs make other teams sweat
Somewhere in there I should make note of Timmy getting his 297th career homer. There's still time for three more.
With the win, the Angels retake second place, and whew.
Update: Title duly changed to record correct authorship.

AL GREEN - the jukebox at Downotwn L.A.'s AL'S BAR had both his original version and the Talking Heads' excellent cover version of TAKE ME TO THE RIVER.
