No surprises there but between Jerome and Ianetta, I expect the A's to run at will.

The #Angels have struck out at least 10 batters in 3 straight home games without allowing an ER, the first A.L. team to do so since 1916.

Tommy Hanson will start Tuesday

[JAHV76]

Hopefully the defense will Jerome keep the score low and the offense keeps on rolling as well

[heaven101]

Will Williams step up big today? He has had a terrible month but hopefully he can find his sinker ball today and give the team 6 strong  innings. 

Colon has walked only 15 batters all season so expect the Halos to be swinging early in the count.

We will win.

How is it possible that to me, it looks like Bartolo has gained weight?

[rageous]

Jerome needs to step it up today.

He has pretty much cost the team 3 losses in his last 3 starts except for the one miraculous comeback.

[heaven101]

Not a good startr for Williams 

[gotbeer]

Ugg.  Not a good start.

[heaven101]

Scioscia cannot let Williams get blown out. Pull him as soon as possible. 

[heaven101]

Iannetta has thrown out only 6 of 61 runners. Pathetic 

[AZMike]

Ugg.  Not a good start.

yep. Angels will likely call for pitchouts and *still* not throw out any runners.

 

overall Conger > Mathis > Iannetta

[heaven101]

Nice play by Trout. 

[heaven101]

Way to work around lead off walk 

[halobob]

Time to score some runs!

[heaven101]

Colon has got to be one of the most unattractive people I have ever seen. 

[KingJustinian]

He's a guy in awful shape that is maintaining his velocity into his 40's.

 

Supplements can help with gaining weight.

[rageous]

colon looks a fat gorilla

[heaven101]

Not that I am one to talk. LOL 

[heaven101]

Colon in 19 starts has allowed more than 3 runs only twice. 

[halobob]

Damn Bartolo

[heaven101]

Wonder how many times Albert has grounded out to 3rd base? 

[heaven101]

If Colon is caught using again he should get a lifetime ban.
