An Angelic Sweep

This is something that I do not get to blog about often and that is a seep of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim or whatever they are calling themselves these days. Mat Latos pitched well in his Dodgers debut only giving up one run in six innings and he left with a 2-1 lead.

Newly acquired relief pitcher Jim Johnson immediately fit right in to the Dodgers bullpen and gave up the tying run in the top of the eighth inning. Andre Ethier hit a solo homerun in the bottom of the eight inning to give the Dodgers the lead back only to have J.P. Howell and Pedro Baez allow the Angels to tie it again in the top of the ninth inning at three. Andre Ethier provided the extra innings heroics that we have not seen from him in quite a while, hitting a two run blast into the Angels bullpen over the right field wall to win it 5-3, giving the Dodgers the walkoff win and a sweep of the Angels.
