Ohtani's bat flip there was like the bone toss / satellite edit from 2001 A Space Odyssey.

What even was that? That was a little league play

[PattyD22]

And there it is.  The Angels trifecta.

Bad base coaching, inherited runners score by the pen, and now the defense comes in and errs in the 9th inning.

Sigh

if Nevin had Velazquez run for Moniak and Cabbage the last couple days, he should be having him run for Renfroe here.

Renfroe's much slower than those two.

and then Velazquez comes in anyway after not pinch running.

If they had put Velazquez in for Renfroe, he goes to 2B, Escobar to 3B, Moustakas to 1B, and Cabbage in RF. It also means Renfroe isn't in RF to make that mistake.

Idiot.

What a buzz killer. A bloop, a bobble and a walk. Not looking good right now.

The energy and excitement level in the stands would drop to zero without Ohtani and we'd be battling Oakland for last place. That's reason enough for Arte to back up the truck. 

Once Oaktown leaves, they won't be a last place team any longer.

This is some twilight zone shit. Every game they have at least 5 egregious mental errors by coaches and/or players. It's wild

Great to see Hasselman manning the base paths for the Yankees too. 

[HanfordGuy]

Double Play!!!!

[PattyD22]

Hell yeah Angels!!!  Way to battle back, Moore.  Awesome

[T.G.]

Never a doubt

[TheLordofOuts]

Come on Shohei.  Send us home winners

[fan_since79]

Okay! Yankee rally snuffed out!

Now let's win it.

I love how the franchise is treating these games like they are all game 7 of the world series

[HanfordGuy]

 

[Duren, Duren]

They escaped, barely. Now it's hero time. Just get Ohtani on base somewhere if he doesn't hit it out and go from there.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Angels 2023 World Series moment right there.  A game saving double play. 

[Blarg]

I forgot to post this earlier in the thread.

Fuck the Yankees.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Walk shohei?

[fan_since79]

A dud AB there and now Ohtani is flexing his back. Please no...
