The Angels played down to their opponent for the second straight night last night, losing the game thanks to a couple of boneheaded errors, a so-so start from Sele, and a bad outing by Frankie Rodriguez. Glaus continued his tear, going 2 for 3 with a home run.

Jeff DaVanon had a good game, too - 3-for-4, bringing his average up to .300. He certainly appears to be winning the center field position from Eric Owens in Erstad's absence; over his last four starts he's 8-for-16.

Tonight, Ramon Ortiz will look to break a string of three straight bad outings. The worrisome thing is that Ortiz isn't giving up a lot of walks, he's giving up a lot of hits - which means that he's either stopped pitching towards the corners or he's been missing over the plate. And every major league team has guys who can hit the ball if it comes in over the plate.
