Bad road trip for Quakes
It doesn't get much worse than the current Quakes road trip.
After losing Saturday 21-7 at Stockton, -- yes, that's a baseball score and not a football score -- the Quakes are 0-6 on a seven-game road trip. After starting the season 6-5, they're now 6-11 and tied with the 66ers for last place in the South Division.
In case you were wondering, the 21 runs allowed Saturday is not a team record. The Quakes allowed 25 runs in a loss to Stockton at the Epicenter on August 1, 1993, the team's first in Rancho Cucamonga.
So if you're wondering if the Quakes hit rock bottom, they haven't yet. They still had four more runs to go on Saturday.
Mr. Marshall,
Typical of an Angel farm team. The "big" team never signs or develops enough pitching to carry their organization. Look how quickly they have to bring any one that can get a ball within a foot of the plate up to the majors. And look how quickly those pitchers flame out.
