Angels Demise

6-4-2 Reviews the Angels LDS defeat.

The Angels don't seem to have learned anything from their 2005 ALCS shutdown against the White Sox, nor from the beatdown the Red Sox put on them in 2004. The singles-n-speed offense is just too easy to silence if the opposition doesn't give up baserunners, or if they don't give up baserunners in succession. Balance is the key (ask Oakland how they like their patient offense that gets guys on base but never home).

The Red Sox put a good defense on the field, which makes that singles offense even more difficult to execute. It's tough to sneak a ground ball through that infield.
