I think it’s pretty good how we’ve had a 480 ft Trout home run, a bunch of hits.  Then an out at home plate on moron base running, a dropped fly ball to right field and a grand slam given up to lose the lead.  Angels baseball is back baby. 

Bad fundamentals team

[HeavenlyHalos]

The umpires have been so damn bad this year

Sounds great. I made teriyaki chicken store fry with steamed rice. Had to push back the pozole verde until tomorrow. 

That doesn't sound good.

[UndertheHalo]

Alright.  Umpire should be executed

The Astro's store fry.

Oh fuck off Ump

[HeavenlyHalos]

The catcher brought it up like two fucking feet haha

[AngelsLakersFan]

Tonight's strike zone resembles a slice of swiss cheese turned at an angle.

[Angel Oracle]

Are the umps purposely doing this, to protest the impending use of robo ball-strike calls?

[Lou]

Marsh should hit it out.

Holy Hyperbole, Batman. This is getting ahead of ourselves. We're talking one inning. He was dominant in his first start. He gave up two singles with eyes and just got cute with Calhoun, then made a really bad mistake to Heim.

I was speaking more about his bat

[eligrba]

It looks like a 5 iron would be a better option than a bat.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Stassi has had two terrible at bats

[OregonLAA]

Just got here. Has anyone mentioned this broadcast?

[tdawg87]

The Angels are not scoring any more runs tonight.

OK, you're forgiven. The bat will come around, although after he had a distinctly great first half and then a merely decent second half last year, I'm wondering if he'll come down to earth a bit. But I also don't see him as a .257 hitter.

Stassi going for the league lead in strikeouts looking

I’d be ecstatic with a .257 BA at this rate.

Not really. Thoughts?

It's going to be great when we win this game.
