Uhh...Why was Felix around to start the 8th?

PrintCan anyone explain to me why Felix was left in the game for so long?
I wasn't able to catch the game, only updates. Felix gave up 4runs through 6innings. Then he goes out for another inning. At first I questioned it, but all went well. However, I believe sending out for the 8th innings was retartded.
You take a pitcher that has been roughed up a bit on the day, thrown a boat load of pitches, facing a good lineup, and you throw him out there while it's still a 4-2 game. 7inn 4runs looks a whole lot better than 7+ 6runs. At that point in the game, the angels have gotten used to what he's throwing, and a different angle from the pen could have kept the deficit manageable.
What do you think?

We were going to lose anyway.
I know I did
Oh no, dammit, that's not me, that's some psychopath who thinks he's a good pitcher.
Don't you mean Bavasi/McLaren?
