6/20/12 Angels And Giants

Yesterday was the first time I saw the San Francisco Giants play in person, in quite a while. The last time I did so, was at Dodger Stadium maybe 7 (or slightly longer than that) years ago. This was also the second game I've been to this week (with games 3 and 4 coming this Friday and Saturday, as the Angels take on the Dodgers).

The game started off with the potential of it being a pitcher's duel, with Weaver making his return for the Angels, going up against the Giants Voelsong (or however you say his last name). The first inning lived up to it, but the second inning for the Angels kind of proved that wrong as the Angels jumped out to a 1-0 lead thanks to a solo home run from Alberto Callaspo. From there, Weaver settled into a grove and went 6 strong innings, and the Angels went on to add 5 more runs (2 of which came from back to back shots from Morales and Trumbo).


The final score of the game was 6-0, and the Giants were never really in the game. They had chances (here and there), but never took advantage of it.
