GDT: 8/12/13 Angels @ Yankees

[gotbeer]

From a 3-0 count, to a 1-2-3 inning.  Good job Garrett.

[Angel Oracle]

Richards is one of the very few bright spots, post-ASB.

Josh!!!!!

nice dbl

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Aybar. Take a pitch, Jesus.

[gotbeer]

Lol.  Great pitch recognition by Aybar.

[Angel Oracle]

Aybar is to taking pitches, as Esteban Yan is to making good pitches. 

Here's hoping that Jose Rondon is much better at pitch recognition.

Is this the part where I mention that I don't get how somehow this is only his 8th start of the season despite the team having 3 different guys who have posted ERAs above 5 and a half in the rotation this season(Hanson, Williams, and Blanton)? And those 3 guys have pitched 67.2 IP, 93 IP, and 116 IP out of the rotation respectively.

And Trumbo continues to press

[Jason]

According to gameday, most of Kuroda's pitches are out of the zone but they are chasing

[jshep]

Trumbo posting by far the best walk rate of his career, and he's still in danger of his OBP falling below .300 in the very near future.

You're kidding, that's so unlike them!

[rageous]

I didn't realize how much I missed Callaspo until I saw Chris Nelson play every day.

Trumbo posting by far the best walk rate of his career, and he's still in danger of his OBP falling below .300 in the very near future.

He's also posting his lowest batting average of his short career.

[jshep]

Congrats on the 2nd best AB of the inning, Nelson!

 

I mean it was still not a good AB, but Aybar and Trumbo set the standard really low, so here we are.

[gotbeer]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[gotbeer]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[gotbeer]

Richards should have drilled him.

[shortmann24]

why is there an angels ad at yankee stadium?

[jshep]

why is there an angels ad at yankee stadium?

 

I'm sure that's a green screen one, and each broadcast puts it's own ads on it.

Oh I see It now when they do a close up.
