Drew and his teammates had a tough challenge in front of
them today, facing one of the better teams in the league in the Angels. After
suffering through a rainout earlier in the season, this battle now was the final
regular season game of the year for these two teams. I think that our kids were
ready for the season to be over (at least a little bit), as they didn't seem to
have their "A" game with them today. Drew struggled at the plate today, going
hitless in his three at-bats. He played both second and first base while in the
field, and he seemed to hold his own with the exception of an overthrown ball
that he couldn't corral at first. Unfortunately for the Dodgers, when the game
ended they were on the wrong end of a 14-3 score.
