Walsh looked so bad that AB but he found a way to get the job done at least

Atta boy Walshy

I've watched this several times and I still don't know exactly how he's hurt so badly.

 

First thing I said to my brother was Dale Earnhardt. That crash looked so innocuous and then all of a sudden, they’re announcing he died. 
 

I hope Suzuki is okay. I’m wondering if the pitch hit his Jugular or Carotid in just the right way to cause him to collapse.

See that's why I don't get why I'm so unappreciated around here.

University College is the most entertaining thing that's happened during an Angels game this week.

University College, or UCL as it is abbreviated, has Greco-Roman columns in its architecture but not one cricket bat or sports field. Its school color is azure. It has a Latin motto.

Marsh should just hit a HR

That stat is incorrect, the Angels are 8th with RISP. 3rd in OPS but 8th in batting average coming into tonight:

10 baserunners and only 2 runs.

Lol.

Yup, pretty bad results for 5 innings and no GIDP.

Maybe next inning. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Hopefully we get through this inning with Lorenzen. Please no Loup again in a 1 run game.

Velazquez has a rifle for an arm.

Did not think of Dale but that is definitely a valid point. 

I really, truly, hope Suzuki is ok too.

I initially was more thinking it hit him like a good boxer punch KO, because it doesn't have to be too hard, just in the right spot.

[Blarg]

Fletcher will be playing 2nd base when he returns because Velazquez has locked down SS. 

[CaliAngel]

I think a more valid nick name for Velasquez is the GD Vacuum.
