And the top spot goes to...
1-Anaheim Angels: RF-Vladimir Guerrero, CF-Torii Hunter, LF-Bobby Abreu
Clearly this is a veteran group, dare I say "old"?

grounder that would have ended the third inning, did Lester allow a run to cross home plate, after Torii Hunter dropped a flare into left field for a single. After that, Terry Francona’s ace in the hole shut the door on Anaheim and completely blew the Angels’ biggest bats out of the water (Lester didn’t even give up an extra-base hit).
