Kendry Morales Shows Up, Unlike Athletics Starter

Final Score in Anaheim: Angels 12, Athletics 3 ... A's starter was a late scratch prior tothe first pitch and Tyson Ross took the mound and did a serviceable job through 3 innings, but the floodgates were open in a 3-run 4th inning on K-Mo's 8th bomb of the year... and so eteran mop Chad Gaudin was asked by Bob Geren to stave off a run on Oakland arms, thus meatballing hungry Angels hitters to a spaghetti noodle web of hits baserunnners and runs.

Kendry Morales was Chef Five RBI with two monster homers. Ervin Santana was behind early but finished strong while Trevor Bell and Bobby Cassevah held down an Oakland Lineup that swung with a tentativeness that screamed fear of a disabled list planet.
