ANGELS MANAGER MIKE SCIOSCIA:

What happened to Sean [Burnett?]

He just felt something in his elbow, we dont know exactly what. Hell be going back down to Southern California
tomorrow. It looks like disabled list but we dont know whats going on. Naturally youre concerned, this thing, we dont
really have an idea what it is now. Well get direction from our medical department, hell be evaluated down in California
and well take it one step at a time. Well wait and see whats going on.

Whatd you think of Weaver?

Weave, I think he really pitched without his best stuff tonight and got through six innings. The fastball command wasnt
quite the same; he was pitching in well thats a good comeback for some lefties. He wasnt able to bring his changeup
into the game like he can and he just mixed and matched. Weaves got great feel out there and felt his way through six
innings.
