113.4 MPH exit velo on Mike Trout's HR

Would be great for Kole to crush one after that catch.

Trout is simply the best there is. 

[bloodbrother]

Swings at ball 3 and ball 4 there

[eligrba4ever]

Trout has 3 opening day homers in six tries, ESPN says. Frank Robinson holds the record at 8. Rawitch expects Trout to catch up and pass Frank..

Didn't Maybin go 0-18 or something in ST before getting his first hit?

[Kenny]

Jesus.  It's possible Sosh will be the manager for 32 more years?!

No way he lives that long

Nolasco has been playing with fire all game.  Lots of hard hit balls 

Will be interesting to see if they let him go 3rd time through.  He's only at about 65 pitches.  

Personally, I would yank him now.  He's obviously tiring.  

[Jason]

Nolasco is running out of gas

[Jason]

A DP would be nice here

No. It's not possible. Connie Mack managed the A's at age 87. He owned the team and wore a dress suit and straw boater hat.

Yep. Dude is a few feet from having allowed 3 HR's already tonight

[Ohtaniland]

He's throwing absolute crap to survive.

[Jason]

Nice K! 

[bloodbrother]

Davis missed a meatball

[Jason]

Alright! Time for the offense to get going

[Blarg]

Joyce hitting like an Angel.

Most "meatballs" are actually missed.

[the dude abides]

Woah dude at least PM me instead of broadcasting it out loud like that ;D

Albert gave it a ride

[Kenny]

Anyone else think that Cron and the Ducks' Nick Ritchie were separated at birth?

Is that Juan Epstein behind home on the left?
