Gameday Thread (5/18/24 4:15 Pacific on Fox): Angels @ Rangers: Sandoval on the mound

[jsnpritchett]

Note that this game is on Fox (the broadcast network), not Bally Sports West today. 

Jose Urena on the mound for the Rangers. Urena and Sandoval have combined career won/lost records of 59-115. Lol.

Again, like last 2 games I predict 0 HR by Angels.

Holy crap.  They just said Sandoval is 5-33 in his career against teams with a .500 or better record.

Texas is exactly at .500 going into this game. If Sandoval can win his 6th game lifetime against a .500 or better team, the Rangers will be under .500 on Sunday.

I hate AJ so much that if his son ever makes it to MLB, I'll boo him like I boo his dad.

WARD! 3rd game in a row!

[eligrba4ever]

Taylor Ward is a true American hero.

Nice to see Sandy with a pretty quick 1-2-3 after getting a run support.

I get frustrated with some players - but there are only a handful of guys I can honestly say that I "hated."  AJ Pierzynski is one.  In fact, I have always said that if he ever has a kid who makes it to the major leagues, I'll boo him too.

And if his son has a son... well, I'll probably be dead by then.
