Angels 4, Oakland 1
7/17/2008

The Angels of Anaheim had a successful game as they took a match-up against the team of Athletics.

During the first inning, Dana Eveland gave up two runs and then pitched his way out of trouble the rest of the way as his career-high three-game winning streak was halted. He gave up five hits over 5 1-3 innings, walking five and striking out five.

"I've had a few rough first innings lately," said Eveland.

On the other hand, Ervin Santana saves his best for the Athletics. His four wins in Oakland are his most in any park outside of Anaheim, and his nine wins are his most against any team. He lowered his ERA against the A's to 1.36 (14 runs in 92 1-3 innings) and has never lost in his seven starts in Oakland.

"Every year they have a different team, different players. I just try to pitch,"

"I haven't seen him pitch enough against other teams," said Oakland manager Bob Geren said. “Even after 100 pitches he's still throwing 97 mils an hour."

Ervin Santana refuses to even think about his dominance over Oakland. The first-time All-Star keeps his focus on winning. He allowed five hits over seven scoreless innings, Howie Kendrick had two hits and an RBI, and the Angels of Anaheim defeated Oakland by 4-1 on a Saturday night game held at the McAfee Coliseum.

"I've had better stuff. I tried to keep the score close; put zeros on the board. With us losing last night, I was just trying to keep the score close because we needed this game," Santana said.

Santana improved to 9-1 against the A's, including wins in his last five decisions against them. He's 35-32 against the rest of baseball.

"He had terrific stuff and he's brought that stuff into most games he's out there pitching," said Angels manager Mike Scioscia. "The command was big and he made some great pitches."

However, Vladimir Guerrero and Juan Rivera also drove in runs for the team of Angels, who had lost three of their previous four games. The Angels put together a two-out rally in the first inning to score their first two runs. Manny Aybar walked with one out. Torii Hunter singled with Aybar taking third after Guerrero struck out. Eveland's wild pitch allowed Aybar to score and Kendrick singled home Hunter.

Scot Shields got the first two outs of the eighth before allowing Brown's single and Gonzalez's RBI double. Francisco Rodriguez pitched the ninth for his major league-leading 37th save in 40 chances.

On the other hand, Carlos Gonzalez doubled twice and drove in a run and Emil Brown had two hits and scored a run for Oakland. Jack Cust struck out in his 19th consecutive game, setting an Oakland record for non-pitchers. He's fanned 114 times to date, one short of the AL mark for most strikeouts before the All-Star break. Philadelphia's Ryan Howard leads the majors with 128 strikeouts.

A crowd of 27,161 have seen the game. And the Angels of Anaheim will continue wining as they continue to prove that they are one of the outstanding teams in MLB.
