Pitching Match Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
Los Angeles: Parker Bridwell (7-2, 4.00 ERA)<br />
Seattle: Erasmo Ramirez (5-5, 4.35 ERA)
</p>
<p>
Parker Bridwell goes for the Angels in this series finale and he was roughed up in his last outing giving up six earned runs in only three innings, but the lineup came through in an 11-9 win over the Oakland A’s. The Angels have won his last two starts even though he has been lit up for 13 earned runs in six innings, but they gave him 21 runs of support. After Bridwell gave up five earned runs in his first start of the season against the Mariners in an Angels loss he was solid in his last start facing them going six innings and only giving up one earned run in a L.A. win. Overall, the Angels have won 10 of Bridwell’s last 11 starts and they have won his last seven road starts.
</p>
<p>
Erasmo Ramirez gets the nod for the Mariners today and in his last outing he gave up two earned runs in six innings in a 6-2 loss to the Houston Astros. The Mariners have lost his last two starts where he went six innings and gave up two earned runs in both outings. In Ramirez’s 3rd start for Seattle since coming over in a trade with the Tampa Bay Rays in the beginning of August he faced the Angels and had a good start giving up one earned run and only allowing three hits, but the bullpen did not do their job in a 6-3 Mariners loss. In 11 career appearances, including seven starts, against the Angels Ramirez is 4-2 with a solid ERA of 2.19. This is Ramirez’s 2nd tour of duty with the Mariners and they are 1-4 in his last five starts against the Angels.
