Jordan Walden has lost his job as closer for the Angels after just one blown save this season. Mike Scioscia announced before Friday night's game against Cleveland that veteran left-hander Scott Downs will close, with Walden moving to a seventh- or eighth-inning role "for right now." Walden entered Thursday's game against Tampa Bay with one out in the ninth inning, the bases empty and the Angels leading by a run. B.J. Upton singled, and Brandon Allen crushed a pinch-hit, two-run home run to give the Rays a 4-3 walk-off victory.
