"He was going to try to play . . . but it was tough for him to push off," Scioscia said. "If he can't run, that's a big part of his game that he can't bring.
"Until he gets to a level where he can do some of the things he needs to do on the field, we're going to keep him out."

The Angels activated outfielder Reggie Willits (mild concussion) off the disabled list before Wednesday's game and sent reliever Jason Bulger back to Salt Lake. . . . Right fielder Vladimir Guerrero, who did not play Monday or Tuesday because of sore legs, and designated hitter Garret Anderson, who had one pinch-hitting appearance in the last two games, both started Wednesday night.
