Hey, a caught stealing for the Angels!  Shocking!

I am hoping that was a hit and run play gone wrong.

We have to be the worst in the league at stealing bases.

Tied with Tampa for the worst stolen base % coming into today (68%), but after that caught stealing, the Angels should take the lead (take the bottom??).

I don't need to read the article to see that he has a body of an application developer.

I seen him up close in spring training. His body is soft. If he was working out two days a week, he was lifting with these. 

 

I don’t think he was working out only two days a week. He was standing two days a week.

Bad judgment by Paris. Take the sure out.

that's right Cimber you can yell when the halos have a chance at a home sweep

[Duren, Duren]

Cimber regains control for a pair of popups. Still holding the lead despite some big mistakes.

this team could easily be .500 even without Trout and Rendon ! I would like to see what this team looks like now that the line up will be set when Trout and Rendon are healthy...I'd force them to get out there with these young guys or trade them to whoever will take them !

[Duren, Duren]

Adell drops below the Mendoza line. It's been a slow, steady regression other than the grand slam. He generally has better patience but isn't getting better results.

adell and moniak do have to hit after Neto though....no reason not to 

[Angels 1961]

 Jo (Gorman Thomas) Adell

Growing pains and he did hit double and score what was winning run other night. Like this team a work in progress.

He has pitched in the minors, though.  It's not like he was just sitting at home.

That's because you are 14 and don't understand baseball. 

[Duren, Duren]

Tough assignment for Joyce in his first game. Nice battle back from potential trouble. And Adell provides some value. 

[eligrba4ever]

Nice 8th inning pitcher.
