Fallen Angels

The Anaheim Angels gave the Oakland Athletics an opening, losing 8-4 to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Jonny Gomes goes three for five, missing the cycle by a double. Colon can blame his back for his poor start. He allowed six earned runs in five innings.

With a win tonight, the A's would move three games out of the division title. That means they won't need to sweep the Angels to take the division, just win three out of four and hope for help on the last weekend. Given that the A's host Seattle and the Angels visit Texas, the A's could get the help they need. The Angels magic number is five, so a split with Oakland will earn them at least a tie.
