Angels win Boston marathon, stay alive in ALDS
Baseball Betting Lines
10/06/2008 -
Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Erick Aybar singled in Mike Napoli in the 12th
inning to boost the Angels to a 5-4 win over the Red Sox, as Los Angeles
remained alive in its American League Division Series.
The Angels, who also broke an 11-game postseason skid against Boston, still
trail the best-of-five series, 2-1, with Game 4 scheduled for Monday night,
again at Fenway Park. A deciding Game 5, if necessary, would be Wednesday in
Anaheim.
Mike Napoli homered twice, and his single to left field started the 12th
inning rally against Javier Lopez (0-1). Howie Kendrick put down a successful
sacrifice bunt. Aybar's first hit of the series then came at the perfect time,
as the shortstop reached out on an 0-2 pitch to loop the ball into shallow
center field, scoring Napoli easily.
Jered Weaver (1-0) walked David Ortiz to start the bottom of the 12th, but
Kevin Youkilis flied out to center, Jason Bay struck out, and Alex Cora
grounded out sharply to third, ending the 5-hour, 19-minute marathon. It was
the longest game in ALDS history.
Chone Figgins had three hits and scored for the Angels, who left 16 men on
base.
Jacoby Ellsbury was credited with a rare three-run single for the defending
World Series champions, who had won their previous nine postseason contests
since losing to Cleveland in Game 4 of the 2007 ALCS. Also, Boston's 11
straight postseason wins over the Angels was a major league record for
consecutive playoff victories for one team versus a single opponent.
