When Angels starting pitcher Jered Weaver took the mound, he put Adenhart’s initials in the dirt. He then threw 6.2 great innings in which he gave up only four hits and two walks, while striking out eight and allowing no earned runs.

To put the runs on the board, the Angels got big games from Bobby Abreu, Vladimir Guerrero and Jeff Mathis. Guerrero and Mathis were 2-for-4 at the plate, while Abreu was 3-for-4.

With the win, the Angels improve to 2-2. The loss dropped Boston’s record to 1-3.

After the game, the attention immediately returned to the Angels’ fallen teammate.

“I just keep hoping,” said Angels pitcher Kevin Jepsen, whose locker is next to Adenhart’s, “that he walks through that door.”
