Poup at it again

Better be a lot better in 2023

What is Nevin doing?

The only reason to leave Loup in for Rosario was because Ramírez is way better vs. RHP (156 wRC+) than LHP (108 wRC+), but then he takes him out for Ramírez??? Then why’d he face Rosario?

Ok, so he brought in Tepera because he walked Ramírez… so if you’re scared of Ramírez, bring in Tepera for Rosario and pitch around Ramírez.

He was great in the 6th, but then Nevin asked too much of him.

Kwan doinked a single and then Nevin left him out there against a RHB at the top of their lineup.

Loup’s been fine. He hasn’t been as good as you’d have liked him to be this season, but he’s far from the problem.

Trout slump coming up.

He is not seeing the ball well. He's been whiffing at fastballs down the pipe.

He’s hit a home run in every game since you posted this.  Keep up the good work, your reverse jinx is working. 

[BTH]

Why is Francona irate?

I’d rather have Giménez up with 2 on than Freeman up with the bases loaded, as Giménez has raked this season.

[beatlesrule]

Oh man he is really mad.

[BTH]

You have to be so bad at your job to have both managers get ejected within 2 minutes.

[beatlesrule]

Now Tempera can't throw any warm up pitches and Nevin gets ejected.

 

[BTH]

Only 12.4k in Cleveland? They’re in first place...

100 loss Angels teams draw that easy.

[Revad]

This is our playoffs, sort of.  Nevin is just getting the guys worked up.

[beatlesrule]

I don't remember the last game I saw where both managers got ejected within a span of minutes of each other.

I'm sure having a two-way phenom and Mike Trout has something to do with it.

According to O’Neal, the pitch caught too much of the plate. 
 

It was six inches outside.

You know you are having a shitty moment as an ump when you eject both managers on the same play. 

[CaliAngel]

Typical. Shitty. Angels. 

[Biergott]

Maybe Ford should lift the brim of his helmet a bit so he can see the ball?

[CaliAngel]

Why does my page constantly have a video automatically come up with highlights of the Astros winning last night? It's every time I click to a new page. Why do I have to see that shit over and over? I'm sick of looking at Dusty Baker's stupid face.

Just an interesting comparison. Whatever you'd like to make of it. Dozed off for a bit.  Cleveland is back in front. The Angels are stuck at just 5 hits.

Why would that help?

My bad

[beatlesrule]

This home plate ump certainly likes a lot of attention.

[beatlesrule]

Now another thing I've never seen before or at least don't remember. Home plate umpire is coming out of the game with two strikes and two outs.

[eligrba]

Home plate ump got his bell rung. He might be out for a few games.

At this point in the season, it’s all we got as fans. Don’t wreck my vibe.

[beatlesrule]

Matt had a good at bat at least.
