The Angels used just two relievers in Game 1, Scott Downs and Jordan Walden. One night after using six relievers to throw 3 2/3 innings, Oakland used three relievers in the first game today: Michael Wuertz, Brian Fuentes, and Fautino De Los Santos. Wuertz is the only A's reliever to be used last night and today. To help their bullpen depth, Oakland in between games recalled pitcher Jerry Blevins and optioned infielder Adam Rosales, per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle.
