Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Game 28/162

OFFICIAL GAME THREAD
Angels at Mariners ... Byrd vs. Sele ... 3:35 pm, TV: Murdoch

Will we win a FOURTH consecutive game for the first time this season?

Garret Anderson needs FOUR total bases to surpass Tim Salmon for all time franchise leader

I'm posting this thread now because tomorrow looks awfully busy - gonna miss the weird-starting afternoon game as my girlfriend and me are leaving to pick up my brother to take him to the Dodger game tonight for his birthday. If you watch the Dodger Game tonight, I will be sitting front row behind the Dodger dugout. My girlfriend is going to wear her Red Jose Guillen Angels shirt. I'm thinking police escort by the third inning...

Evolution is a process too slow to save my soul
But I've got this creature on my back, and it just won't let go

If I am only an animal then I can do no wrong
But they say I'm something better, so I've gotta hold on

re: I look like this
wow! i never would've dreamed that AK would be hosting this blog! but how are you gonna post during the game, now that you're off the DL?

also, who's that dorky, halo-headed guy you're pictured with?

You don't recognize him?
That's the secret love child of Al Franken, a troll doll, and a yellow highlighter.  I read it in the Weekly World News!
I'm patient
I got a long memory and you love donuts.
do you remember...
when you hit those 3 HRs in one game in Minnesota? that was awesome.
Sorry Rev'rend
I will say 10 Hail Vladdys and 10 Our Scioscias as penance.

gettin jiggy for figgy
figgins might be one of the more underrated position players in the game. defensively, he's versatile even if he's not Gold Glove caliber. offensively, he's on track to have another .300 year, his speed and stealing ability turning singles into doubles and doubles into triples. the #2 spot is good for him, although i think he's a true leadoff hitter. he & erstad should switch.
wow
that was really high and far.

vlad 2-0 over seatlle

3 byrds
3 up and three down.   good to see AK moving around very well at 2nd base.

c

the pope
pope got's to lay down those bunts.
oh my goodness
They are walking Old Man to get Cabfare.
jiggy
that first pitch to cabfare was a ball.
it took the ump about five minutes to call it a strike.

Bullshit.

i just joined -- 6th inning
seems like byrd is doing well. knock on wood.
big fig
7th inning: bunt single, stole second.
again, he's turning small opportunities into scoring opportunities!
my big mouth
he just got picked off
thanks
i would like to thank waynewecan for joining the one man party called Cupie.
missed oppportunity
i hope that "first out at third" rule-breaker doesn't come back to bite us in the azzz.
ichiro 0-for-4
how many times did that happen last year? not many.

well done birdy!

Ersty
0-5.  I am going to speak for the Reverend, i believe he would be calling for Ersty's head and demanding Kotchman up now!
Malibu's Most Wanted
For some wacky reason I feel alot better having Adam Kennedy/B-Rad at 2nd.  He looks a lot smoother and much more confident than Chone.
The Pope
I think the Pope might be out a while.  I think Bengie is available this weekend.  Maybe give Jeff a couple days in the bigs?
Clint Mathis
Jeff Mathis, catcher.

A point to anyone who can tell me who Clint Mathis is...

no
and no he is not in Queensryche...

 I hate that i am talking to myself.

Bueller...Bueller...?

Clint
Clint Mathis is a soccer player I believe.

Also, I'm glad to see someone else call Josh Paul the Pope. Did you get that from me or are we just on the same wavelength?

Wise and Eck
You get a point...  Apparently the Yellow One known as the Reverend coined da Pope back when he was in the CUBS (look at me).

Nice call on Clint though.

c

F-Rod
One out on a bunt.  

Why would you bunt?  That stuff is too nasty.

Strike'm out Slider
Olivo...  Sit down.

Two outs

Cabfare
Ground out to the Cabbie.

3 up and 3 down.

5-2

17-11.

Good Job Halos.

Goodnight.

Cupie

The Pope
I called him that when he was a backup catcehr on the CUBS.
