Game Notes

Angels rally late to play another day after a 6-5 in over the Giants.

Down 5-0, facing a championship celebration by San Francisco on their home field, the Angels strike with 3 runs in the 7th and 3 more in the 8th for the win. Chris Spiezio's 3-run blast after a long battle with Felix Rodriguez starts the rally.

Darin Erstad homers to lead off the 8th and then Troy Glaus delivers a 2-run double off Robb Nen for the lead before the Giants can record an out in the inning. Troy Percival closes out San Francisco in the 9th to force a game 7.

The Giants had cruised behind starter Russ Ortiz until the Angels get to him to start the 7th. Shawon Dunston's 2-run HR in the 5th breaks up a scoreless tie, and the Giants add 1 more run before the inning ends, and additional runs in the 6th and 7th.
