Post-Game 69 Thread: That Was Unexpected

Found June 20, 2009 on Sons of Steve Garvey:
PLAYERS: Jeff Weaver,  Jered Weaver,  Russell Martin,  Andre Ethier,  Orlando Hudson,  Casey Blake,  Ronald Belisario,  Ramon Troncoso,  Jonathan Broxton
TEAMS: Los Angeles Dodgers,  Los Angeles Angels

DODGERS 6, ANGELS 4 WP: Jeff Weaver (4-1), LP: Jered Weaver (5-1) The parents Weaver didn't get their wish (two no-decisions), but we sure did. Russell Martin hit his first home run, Andre Ethier had two RBIs and Orlando Hudson and Casey Blake each had one. Ronald Belisario, Ramon Troncoso and Jonathan Broxton did their usual bullpen thing and the Dodgers put themselves in a position to even the season series with the Angels tomorrow. Goodnight Jered. Goodnight Jeff. Goodnight moon. photos by Chris Carlson/AP; illustration by Clement Hurd
