Anemic Offense

Not much to say here other than our offense in these last couple games against Toronto was _____________ (Insert word of your choice). We now haven't scored a run in the last 22 innings and have only 7 hits in the last 18 innings. That pretty much defines a cold streak, although the Angels didn't homer in 14 straight games before last night when Garrett Anderson tee'ed off. We mentioned that the key to this series for the M's was knocking the starters out early and getting into the bullpen. Well, in the final two games of the series, we didn't get it done. Towers went 6 2/3 while allowing no runs on only 3 hits in the second game in the series and Halladay pitched a complete game shutout giving up just 3 hits in the finale. Hopefully we are able to spark the offense in the next four games in Texas. Ahhh the Ballpark in Arlington; what better place to come out of a hitting slump?
