YES. GUERRA.

[Revad]

Wow did we need that DP

[rafibomb]

Raisel everytime he has to warm up because the pitcher before him gets into trouble

[eligrba4ever]

Sure hope we can hold a 3-run lead.

[rafibomb]

This part of the lineup is about as tough as it gets in the entire league when coming in for the save. 

[failos]

Why does Rich Waltz keep saying the Angels are the home team. They’re not.

[failos]

Waltz kinda sucks

[Revad]

Lite it up

[beatlesrule]

Game 1 goes to the Angels!

[eligrba4ever]

LIGHT IT FOR THE OPENER!!

 

[rafibomb]

That was an elite inning by Raisel

[failos]

JUP should be the player of the game

[HanfordGuy]

Over .500!!! Let’s play 2!!!

[TheLordofOuts]

This is the 1st win of the Angels’ upcoming 21 game winning streak

He kept saying they are at home but batting as the visiting team. 

[HanfordGuy]

Were separate tickets required or does one ticket get you in both games of the double header?

I thought I heard him say the Angels are the home team multiple times.

I can't tell you about now?

I went to a DH at the stadium with the Royals, I forget the season? "03" perhaps?

That particular time, I used my gameday tickets. 

I think Rex mentioned something about the team honoring the same day tickets working to get in the 1st game. 

The place was empty during the first game!

It was great too, I got a baseball that day!!!!

They could tweak this stupid rule a bit, have no ghost runners in innings 10-12, then start it in the 13th.

I can see why MLB wants to avoid those 22-inning marathons that end at 2:30 AM, but delay it for a few innings at least.

 

my son told me Manfred said no ghost runners next year either

Walsh "day to day"?

Okay, August 25th. Got it.

Things that will happen before a Halo returns in the time originally expected by the team:

Everything including L.A. city proper experiencing zero degree temps

Why even bother with expected time missed?
