Rattler Alumni Report: MLB Playoffs October 22, 2009

Angels 7, Yankees 6

Angels:
Brian Fuentes ('97): IP, 0H, 0R, 2BB, SAVE

Yankees:
Alex Rodriguez (Foxes, '94): 1-for-3, RUN
Damaso Marte ('96)
The left-handed Fuentes retired the first two batters and gave Alex Rodriguez the Barry Bonds treatment, intentionally walking the slugger to pitch to lefty Hideki Matsui. But Matsui walked, and Robinson Cano was hit by a pitch to load the bases.

Nick Swisher worked the count full, and with 45,113 fans on their feet, those wearing red not knowing whether to watch or shield their eyes, Fuentes got Swisher to pop out to shortstop, ending the game.
