Doesn't this guy have an f'n breaking ball? What the hell is he doing throwing a fastball 0-2 after throwing two into ARod.....

Retarded thinking right there....

The pitch selection is not nearly as bad as the location.

Dude, you throw that f'n ball in the dirt or at his f'n head, you don't throw three straight of the same f'n pitches to major leaguers...

I can really care less but I really want the Angels to win and stupid **** like that, it is less likely to happen

Like Chuck said, it wasn't the pitch, it was the location.

But a different pitch selection would have negated that...

Not if he put it in the same spot as he put that heater.

Wouldnt that be location? That ball caught way too much plate on 0-2 when you know he just saw what you have in taking the first 2 strikes. As a sidearm lefty he doesnt have much of a breaking pitch for righties. Lets face it Fuentes got a lot of saves but isnt overpowering. Hell his ERA was close to 4.
