Back to back for the Angels off Koji Uehara. And then they get to punishing. Two batters after Torii Hunter and Kendry Morales crushed homeruns, Gary Matthews smoked a line drive into the mid-section of Uehara. L.A. takes “knocking around a pitcher” to a whole new level. Uehara fortunately walked off the field, replaced by Danys Baez. A shame, Uehara pitched six great innings, but when the wheels fell off the ride ended in a hurry.
At least though, Uehara didn’t take the liner off his head like Tim Lincecum a few weeks ago.
L.A. not just picking on Koji either, moments ago a line drive off the ankle of Baez loaded the bases. And with a wind chill of about 42, there are some miserable Orioles right about now.
