On the day before the World Series was to start in the Bronx, the Los Angeles Angels gathered in their clubhouse for the final time in 2009 and cleaned out their lockers.
Far be it from me to accuse Major League Baseball of stacking the postseason deck in favor of the Yankees. I’ll let somebody else make that accusation and pretend I’m above such scandalous speculation.
The dismal track records are there to see: Pitchers on three days rest in the postseason since the added round of playoffs in 1995: 20-34, 4.65 ERA.
Maicer Izturis' throw zipped by second base, the ball careening out of control like a wet bar of soap, and headed toward somewhere near third. Chone Figgins fumbled it as the winning run scored.

John Lackey will start Friday night's Game 1 of the AL championship series against CC Sabathia and the Yankees, getting the nod from manager Mike Scioscia before the Angels traveled to New York on Wednesday.
The New York Yankees have a great team. That much we know. Any team that can win 103 games in the regular season has to be good.
Forget what the schedule says. The World Series does not start on Oct. 28. It starts on Friday when the Angels visit the Bronx to take on the Yankees in the ALCS.
Torii Hunter emerged from the visitors' clubhouse at Fenway Park to spray champagne over the fans and family gathered there. Erick Aybar did him one better, handing over bottles of bubbly to those who came from California to see the Los Angeles Angels go for the sweep.
The trial of a man charged with driving drunk and killing Los Angeles pitcher Nick Adenhart has been delayed for six months at the request of his new defense attorney.
Josh Beckett and Jered Weaver remained locked in a pitcher's duel Friday night, with the Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Angels tied at 1 through six innings in Game 2 of their AL playoff series.
Jered Weaver followed in John Lackey's day-old footsteps throughout the night, all the way to his final triumphant walk off the Angel Stadium mound. He even waved his cap at the standing, cheering crowd with nearly the same sweep of his arm.
The makeshift memorial in front of Angel Stadium's main entrance is about the size of a pitcher's mound now. Hats, stuffed animals, sparkling lights, rosary beads, inscribed baseballs and hand-lettered signs are all arranged in a neat circle around an easel that holds a painting of Nick Adenhart in mid-throw.
Mike Napoli homered, Joe Saunders pitched five strong innings and the Los Angeles Angels closed out an impressive regular season with a 5-3 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.

Angels manager Mike Scioscia isn't commenting on talks with Major League Baseball officials about umpires' complaints against the team's coaching staff.
DeMarco: It’s understandable that the Yankees would want to protect the health of young stud Joba Chamberlain. But how much is too much, and will the tight leash on his innings hamper his development?
Howie Kendrick homered and added an RBI blooper to break a ninth-inning tie, and Brian Fuentes protected the lead as the Los Angeles Angels beat the Boston Red Sox 4-3 on Thursday night.
Mark Teixeira hit a two-run triple on a play that caused Angels center fielder Torii Hunter to lose a shoe, then doubled to start the go-ahead rally in the eighth inning that led the New York Yankees over Los Angeles 5-3 Monday night in a possible playoff preview.
Has MLB never seen the "Dewey beats Truman" picture? Clearly they haven't because there is just no justification for this ridiculous act. I was reading the Los Angeles Times and look what I found.

Welcome back for day 2 of the MLB playoffs. Hopefully the games are more entertaining today then they were yesterday. We're still a while away from first pitch today. Got some good baseball articles? Send them my way.
Thousands helped as Pacific Angel concludes 9/28/2009 - QUANG TRI PROVINCE, Vietnam (AFNS) -- Air Force officials concluded the final iteration of Operation Pacific Angel 2009 during a ceremony here Sept.
Invisible Guardians: Angels or a Brain Function?On September 11, 2001, Ron DiFrancesco went to work at Euro Brokers, a financial trading firm on the 84th floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center, like it was any other day. He was at his desk when the first plane hit the North Tower at 8:46 a.m.
What is religion? Isn't is a belief or beliefs in dieties, a Diety or other unseen forces in a universe of our understanding according to perceptions? A good book i am reading is by Anthony Robbins called Unlimited Power.
The Los Angeles Times' Bill Dwyre is calling an all-L.A. World Series this year. I think this is the weakest point, though:
The Bible does not teach individuals to be self-reliant. Instead, we are urged to depend upon God and His inspired agents for our welfare. PART I. Introduction
With Cliff Lee off to the Phillies, and Matt Holliday already making himself at home in St. Louis, the trade market has lost a bit of luster. But there is still a lot going on out there as we march closer to Friday's trade deadline. Let's take a look at what's going on:
Angels, Demons, and AntimatterMy wife and I just saw Angels and Demons last night. While the movie was entertaining, some of the technical aspects were a little off -- especially about anti-matter.
* With the Blue Jays and Indians playing in Toronto, scouts have converged to get a 2-for-1 showing on Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee. In particular, Bob Elliott of the Toronto Sun reports that the Dodgers, Brewers, Phillies, and Red Sox are among the teams interested in Lee.
Get me, I'm clairvoyant. I said this on July 8th: The Angels lose Vlad to a knee injury that, while maybe not terribly serious, has to be enough to keep him from ever playing the field again, right? I mean, he has to be a DH at this point, doesn't he?
T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com tells the amusing story of Chone Figgins being a last-minute addition to the All-Star game when Evan Longoria was scratched with an infected finger literally hours before the first pitch:
Evan Longoria has been scratched from tonight's All-Star game because of an infected right ring finger that had to be drained and treated with antibiotics yesterday.
I'm tired of Angel players who don't speak English. At least not with a mike in from of them. This Kendry Morales ignoring our language for Spanish the way Vlad does is outrageous. This is an American team with American fans paying them American millions.
Vladimir Guerrero strained his left knee Tuesday while playing right field for just the second time all season and Torii Hunter has been hindered by sore ribs thanks to various adventures in wall-crashing, and both players will finish the first half on the sidelines after being p …
Kelvim Escobar went from the disabled list to the rotation to the bullpen and then back to the DL in the span of about a week last month, and now Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register reports that he "hasn't picked up a baseball in weeks and has to be considered a long shot …
How a Miracle HappensThis site is filled with insights into the nature of soul, and how, healing comes to those who seek it.
Gary Matthews Jr. stole home yesterday. As evidenced by the photo to the right, he's also adept at robbing people of home runs. He's not going to be able to rip off the mother of the child he had back in 2004 anymore, however:
Earlier this week Vladimir Guerrero shaved off his trademark dreadlocks in an effort to break out of his season-long slump and yesterday Magglio Ordonez followed suit by trimming his ... well, I'm not quite sure what you'd call his previous hair style, but it was long.
