Angels Reach ALCS By Sweeping The Red Sox 3
The Boston Red Sox offense finally found their bats, but the bullpen couldn’t hold a late lead as the Los Angeles Angels surprisingly completed a series sweep to end the 2009 season for the Sox.
It was a disappointing end to a season that was filled with peaks and valleys.
The Red Sox began the season seizing a lead of as many as five games in the American League East before injuries started to erode their pitching depth.
After slumping in July and early August, the Sox rebounded to clinch their sixth playoff appearance in the last seven seasons.
