Pineiro Tosses 3 Hit Shutout, Angels Blank Rays 6-0 Stuck

Joel Pineiro Tossed a 3 hit shutout vs. the Rays

Coming in to tonights game with the Tampa Bay Rays Joel Pineiro was scuffling. Pineiro had an 0-2 record and an ERA well over 6.00. The Rays Matt Garza was on the other end of the spectrum. Garza was sporting a 5-0 record and an ERA under 3.00. Tonight those roles were reveresed. Pineiro pitched a complete game 3 hit shutout and Garza was roughed up for 6 runs in just 4 1/3 innings of work.

The Angels jumped on Garza early and often, before the Rays pen could stop the bleeding in the 5th inning. By that time it was too late, the Angels were up 6-0 and Pineiro was looking unhittable. Brandon Wood was particularly effective against Garza. Wood hit a pair of RBI doubles one off the left centerfield wall and one off the right centerfield wall of Garza.

Wood, continued his torrid pace since coming off the DL, raising his average to .400 in the 2 weeks he's been back. Juan Rivera also extended his hit streak to a ML best 21 games.

These two teams face off again tomorrow night with Ervin Santana (3-1, 3.89) facing off against young fireballer David Price (2-0, 5.29)

I've always like Brandon Wood for some reason. I will have to keep an eye on him if I need a young infielder come trade time. You have him tearing it up!

Yeah he's on fire right now. He got hurt in the first game of the year. Started off slow when he got off the DL, but has been on fire since the Boston series. Hit 2 HR's off of Beckett and it's been on ever since.
