![]() SAN DIEGO, CA - If David Price (left) had received any run support in Game 3 of the 2010 World Series, the rookie would have been remembered by generations to come for his dominant World Series debut. Instead, his performance was wasted in a 1-0 victory by the American League champion Anaheim Angels, giving them a 2 to 1 series lead. Dan Haren, while not a rookie, was even better than Price in his own World Series debut. Haren went 8 innings, scatting 6 singles, walking none and striking out 5 Padres. The Pepperdine alum was credited with with the win, his third of the postseason. Haren started the ninth but got into a jam, forcing Angels manager Dave Berks to bring in Matt Thornton to close out Game 3. He struck out two more Padres and quickly ended the threat. The Angels' only run came in the third inning when Adam Dunn, having doubled, was singled in by catcher Ryan Doumit. "Who knew that would be the game's only run," Doumit questioned after the game. "I'm proud we made the run hold up." Doumit is hitting .455 in the postseason.
