already????

wow we are crazy

sweet!

like how they called that run a “gift run”

I wanted it wrapped!
A gift from Halo bats

to BoSux ass

The condescencion is SUFFOCATING.
It would be rude of John to give it back
Let's Go Mike Napoli!
lets go naps!

make it IMPOSSIBLE for soth to play mathis tomorrow!

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOOO THREAD NUMERO DOS
Making excuses for the error

oh poor red sox their infield was slow last week from the rain BOO HOO

3-K's for both Johns so far
Naps shoild have taken that ball off the foot for the team
Lackey at 55 pitches
Someone Tell Napoli...

he doesn’t have to swing for the fences every time.

Wait was Youkillis even on the base?
need moar runs nao!!!
lolcatz sez less groundouts preez
they're talking about our field

as if its turf. its a grass field, just like you have in Bahhstan moron.

Now Batting.....

Everyone’s FAVORITE HALO

Lets go Juice, remember, you OWN Lester.
time for Rivera to take over.
Well, that was closer to being a hit.
Well, that was better than the first time.
NEXT A.B. GARY HITS ONE OUT
sheesh - pat him on the head

Why doesn’t Carey go down and give Francona a hug?

Aybar......

let’s get a hit…..

Stay strong John.
Lower 3rd of the batting order not doing much for me.
that's a shame
i think we really need

our bottom 3 to start getting on base.

Needs more Juan.
I agree

Im getting nervous

They're the ones who should be getting nervous.

Third time through is when we traditionally start to rip people up.

I hope your right brother
in zu we trust
i cant shake the nerves!
considering nobody is hitting fly balls, i'd say lester has good movement tonight ... but they could work more walks for sure
J Lester 67-43; J Lackey 55-36.
Nice catch, GMJ. If you can't hit it, make sure to catch it.
Just checking in to say HELLO

I’m watching the game with a big group of Angel fans here in a huge theater room in Utah … we collected everyone from our neighborhood that even KNEW about the Angels and turned them into honorary Angel fans for the knight - but sorry to say I think I"m creating a bunch of bandwagon fans here -- but, the more the merrier, right, when it comes to HALO NATION!?

Go Halos!

Where in Utah?
South Jordan.
I'm working in Provo, hotel is in Sandy,

We’re neighbors!!

Bandwagon fans

Is it just ’cause the Bees are out of the playoffs?

Utah

Ought to be a bastion for Halos fans, both the Salt Lake City and Orem minor league teams are Angels Affiliates.

It really is, I've seen a few red car flags recently.

We went to Bees games all year wearing our finest Angel gear.

woo, that one scared me for a second
he wanted to make a home run call right there

what a douche

The ball never lies
That's one for the marine layer.
Thanks Marine Layer.
oh come on tex, pick that
WOW.. that jacket is LOUD
looks great on a RED background. UGH.
freaking scrappy sawcks
Casey Kotchman gets that. >_<
easier play for napoli there
Unfortunately yes.
kotchman doesn't hit .380 and big bombs
Yeah, I know, but still...
Kotch would probably have an IV in his arm, watching from a hospital bed
Kotch would have had it. Tex you owe us a big hit now.
Who gives a shit about Bekket

Talk about this game. Show this game

Not some EasSPeeiN flunky

we need brad fullmer
I don't know ...

Tex’s 2 Gold Gloves say that’s a tough play

Kotchman was pickmaster general though.
Hey Mr. Sager...

Yeah, um 1974 called, they want their clothing back, and oh, the toupee, it’s doesn’t look remotely real.

Jim McKay wants his image back
Naw....

MacKay wants to be alive.

nice pitch calling. ummm,
Forget about the baserunner, John.
gosh this buck guys annoying
alright, big John gettin' it done
YES! Nice positioning, Juice!
good juice

trifecta

Little Pony?

His nickname is “little pony?”

My 6 year old sister plays with those, I think.

OK there's something you can't always say...

The Juice gets all three put-outs that inning.

hey's it's a strike - if you can't get the runner - get a strike

And that’s out # 3

Thank you GMJ! I will take catches in the outfield.

keep it up.

its soo hard to watch
I wouldn't mind a little margin, here...
You think thats hard......Try Playing it.
You want hard?

Viva Viagra!

i was gonna say something about Pedroia

but i didn’t want to be on the hook for later in the game if something happens.

Way to get out of another inning Thunder! woot!

M00r RUNz PLZ
What the hell was that said under Buck breath

during the stolen base

“no chance” you homer you ass

haha i heard that too

more bosux love

He was right in this case

Curveball. Napoli made a good throw, but the pitch was too slow to the plate.

I can’t believe I’m actually defending Buck Martinez. It’ll (almost certainly) never happen again.

cmon figgy ... channel your inner leadoff hitter, think of haynes, and reach base!
Channel your inner hank aaron haha
Holy crap

Five blades on that Gillette Razor? What’s next, laser shaving?

They keep getting closer and closer to the SNL

skit with 9 blades.

skip the 1-800 call collect, I'll pay
Time for the ATT call to bench

This call goes out to 1-800-GET-NATE

At times dominant?

WTF game are THEY watching?

HEY HEY

he GIFTED the Angels a run… don’t talk poorly of him.

It's your time CHO KNEE
Lester at 71 pitches
Buck or Reynolds

who sucks less

Reynolds, atleast he's just stupid.
you have to pick a Buck
NICE try, Figgs. >_<
bummer

figgy, gettins some good swings.

Hard hit

at least. But how is that Lester being dominant? He’s f——ing lucky that his short-stop was in the right place.

GA too lazy to go 3-3.
Nice Ghost Ryder.
nice knock tex
cmon vlad, elevate hard
lets go big daddy

POWER UP

Awesome

Lester is starting to look hittable all of a sudden

Good hit by Tex
Nice Teix.

That’s how one bats in the postseason!

Teix is making the OF work for it.
Send one out, Vlad!
The Daddy ! ! ! ! !
once in a while

the camera goes all Kung fu Hustle on me. You?

A SINGLE IS FINE, TOO
Tex is SLOW.
Kotch would've taken 3rd
only if it was a homerun
Would have stolen home.
Good job Vladdy

Nice little doink…

Vladi is due an RBI soon
Daddy Vladdy

Keep on rollin’

way to check in Vlad
Think they'll walk Torii to pitch to Howie?
nope they like our groundouts
Vladdy

Don’t they give them new unis to start the playoffs? Vladdy’s uni needs some loving looks like

ahhhh, torii
first pitch swinging, serenity now, serenity now
Need to make more noise than that.
Oh Torii

That will not do.

damn torii

you’re not going to get errors everytime

Volcano Taco
damn damn damn

ahhhh!!!!!

Hey - Isn't the term "Pitcher's Duel" usually reserved for

A scoreless game or a tied game?

Naw, low-scoring in general.
any low-scoring game, usually 0-0, 1-0
not all the time

if its a close, low-scoring game its a pitcher’s duel too.

Low scoring low hits
paging the rally monkey
No need for the Monkey

We’re leading – contrary to the broadcasters

well im paging the runs rat then
Remember the Rat
Paging the rally monkey now
i thought the rule for the monkey was only in the 7th and only if we're losing
7th inning or later.
Men on base too, no?
Nope

Just 7th inning or later with a deficit

Suck it Papi.

Suck it long. And suck it hard.

The Admiral

God Bless Him!

Looks like Mickey Hatcher preached patience to Ortiz also.
big poopy

take a sit mister

Big Poppy is sloppy
hello folks

roll call No. 2. I missed have missed a lot in the last hour!

Nah - just 1 run and a lot of Boston outs
GO BACK TO CANADA, FRENCHIE

AND EAT YOUR SCONES WITH YOUR TEA

wait, what?

Well you didnt miss the beer thats for sure.....LOL
"Papi ain't ajustin'" Dumb Buck

He’s being overmatched

Youkilis is still ugly too
No sweat, John, get Drew to DP.
BB to Youk

Get the DP John.

Lackey's pitch count is catching Lester's.
Meh.

Our middle pen is better than theirs.

Remember stirrups classic post about Bob Gibson's pitch count
yes, the careful summer
care free summer, I'm all worked up
Buck is practically begging the Sox to go ahead
Comparing JD Drew and Mickey Mantle??

Gimmie a break

Lackey K's Drew

That must make Lackey pretty good by comparison.

Geez, this is getting bad.

When the Angels are hitting they talk about Lester. When Boston is at the plate, they talk about the hitter.

95% of what they are saying is SOX
Holy jeez,

Lackey doesn’t look so incredibly hideous with facial hair.

"The Ever Dangerous.....J.D." WHO???
Not much to say about the BoSox there!!

LAckey with the K!

Drew is good and all

nope stuck out

He looks like Mantle - whiffs like Drew
nice!
wroooooooong time for "nice"
Sit your chowd ass down!
ummmm. HE CANT HIT A CURVEBALL!

STUPID

Damn it, John. >_<
UGHHHHHHHHHHH
SHIT AINT OVER YET
Settle down John
Freakin BAY......WTF. Come on Lackey get back on Trackey and lets get the RUNS BACK
NICE play, Mark.
Nice play Mark.
Dude.. who's clapping in the press box??

The guy is creaming all over himself – you can hear the relief in his voice

Thank you Teix, lets get some hits please
we need to answer back

THIS INNING.

Alright Hitters

You’ve got some more work to do.

manny who?

i would love to hear the faint voice of hud come from the next booth over and beat this guy senseless

my wife just asked "why do the announcers have to cheer for the Sox?"
Howie, Napoli

Time to get it done.

It's only 1 run ...

That’s no problemo

Need to respond
Keep On Target
That's "Stay On Target"
The next five ain't got no hits

Lets change that now !!!

can we contact TBS

and ask them to get decent announcers who aren’t blowing the red sox?

times like this you gotta miss Rex and Phizzy
No fucking shit.

I almost puked when they were creaming their panties with the “Manny WHO”.

FUCK OFF TBS

Why the hell couldn't we have gotten Gwynn.
fuck

baseball

and

boston

Come on man.....Kotch is cheering for us, so should you.
can we get jon bon jovi back on the screen?

i think that is what we need

Too bad that baseball begins for Jeter in Feb.
Time to get it figured out, Howie.
The Boston Station?

TBS? Anyone?

Not nervous

Confident. Lester is going to get hit, and soon.

Nervous?

Its the fucking 6th inning

C'mon bottom 3...

get your useless asses on base.

bottom 4.

HK with 5 LOB.

Time to bust out some Oak Island Bullshit!
Come on, Howie, turn it down a notch and be smart.
We need to start hitting this guy around like in the regular season.
wow, HK looks really REALLY bad.
Looks like he's overswinging.
Trying too hard.
if by overswinging

you mean swinging 2 feet over the ball, then yes.

Howie...

damn. come on.

Crap

Crapity crap crap

Ugh. Hatcher, do your damn job, and CALM HIM DOWN.
come on Mark Napoli

:|

One order of Side Salad please
Let's go Mike, we'll take walks. We need baserunners.
ugh

blaaaaaaaaaaaack hoooooooooooooooooleeee

Jesus, STOP SWINGING AT JUNK.
God damn

TBS Is masturbating furiously at Lester’s 5 k’s.

halos are helping lester ALOT
god i hate these blo sox loving announcers
Screw MLB.TV mosaic

It’s cool to have the four views but once I switched to the dugout view Lackey gave up the bomb. Back to normal mode.

So it's your fault. Thanks a lot dick.
Joking by the way. Don't know how to type sarcasm.
C'MON JUICE

Now would be a good time to bring it

lets play angels baseball

on

over

in

Lester at 100 pitches, done after this inning?
Come on Gary..

I’ll take back everything negative Ive said about you with a bomb.

Atleast they're making him pitch.
swing the damn bat
Bottom 4 are 0/11

woth 5 LOB.

USELESS ASSHOLES

BS BLUE

that’s the first time tonight you’ve called that a strike!

Lackey needs to come out and shut them down this inning
Might be time for Dondo.
My impersonation of these announcers...

Jon Lester..Jon Lester…Jon Lester…Red Sox…Jon Lester…Manny Who…Jon Lester

I like how that pitch becomes a strike for the first time all game just now
Thing of beauty

naught

Bottom of the 7th I'm going to start drinking like crazy
Yeah

Lackey has hit that spot half a dozen times- no strike

reply button pleaz
did he hit that spot on the home run?
disgusting

……

No worries - it's still 2-1
agreed nothing to worry about
makeup call
totally

and taken

Oh you call that a strike?
Wow, he didn't go a quarter of the way Ortiz did.
Oh my goodness Lowrie got screwed
It's ALMOST TIME FOR.....

RALLY SHOTS ! ! !

define rally shots rules?
aybar, figgins, ga

need a leadoff hitter to reach base !

Wow

did you guys see Lowrie in the dugout? Good lord, is he ugly.

Okajima up

we need to be extra patient next inning.

again, why is GMJ playing? have we asked this before?
UNBELIEVABLE

3 base error

Gary Massacre Jr.
G. M. J. GRRRRRRRRRRRRR
GET FUCKING JUAN IN THERE RIGHT NOW.
LOL I said Morales but either will do : )
GMJ...............................
take matthews dumb ass out
you've got to be kidding me
HGH better not see the field again this postseason

FUCK!

OMG.....WOW

Where is Morales? Quick get him in NOW!!

How many fucking fly balls can GMJ just completely miss this year?

Seriously, how many errors does he have?

8 errors during regular season .963 fielding average
Replace HIM now!!
NO COMMENT

ONE MORE OUT JOHN

MATTHEWS

terrible.

Ole! And this is why GMJ should not be in RF.

His nickname ought to be The Matador!

Thanks a lot Sosh.
I like Butchers reaction there.
Come on John, be the man
Gary.

Fuck you.

Go away.

Moving on.

Stop yanking the ball John.

Pulling WAY too hard, John.
Fuck You Gary

And fuck you Sosh for playing him in Right.

Anyone else hear the collective TBS announcer orgasm after Bay’s home run?

Butch went out and told Lackey not to kill HGH

Either on the field or in the dugout

matthews have more errors than homers this year?
let's go fucking Nomar!
Some consitency blue
I agree with Lackey

FUCK

Nice F-Bomb, John.
Lackey

is outta there… ya…. F****

I hate the red sox so much
Haha! Lackey just used his F-bomb for October
Uh oh

this is turning into a Lackey inning.

No, this is officially a GMJ ****ING SUCKS inning.
You mean one where he shuts the other team down but the inning keeps going because GMJ turns into a little leaguer?
No

one of the innings where Lackey cruises along until something doesn’t go his way, and the wheels fall off…which Scioscia recognized and pulled him from.

Why did Lack just yell FUN?
HAHA -

That’s Awesome

stupid freaking matthews
Juice owes John about $10 million.
Thank You Bigg John

Lets not give him the loss boys

Lackey says, "FUCK you HGH"

Thats his F-Bomb NOT MINE

hey guys!

F*#@ YOU, MATTHEWS!

Whats up man, where were you?

And F*#@ YOU, MATTHEWS! to you too ; )

gone tonight

just got back.

good news… Boise State raped La. Tech tonight!!!

Sweet.....One of my buddies form HS plays for Boise State.

Ryan Winterswyk is his name……We played football for La Habra High School and graduated ’05.

no way!

Winterswyk is the MAN!

you are a BSU student?
i was.
if you still live in Boise, that makes two Idaho HH fans, I live in Pocatello
no, i'm back in Cali.

sorry man. :(

but there were 2 of us last year!

Pretty sure he said something else
Oliver's Inherited runners percentage is HORRIBLE

he is the LAST person I want to see right now.

Can we get some fucking run support?

Honestly. This is ridiculous.

Don't get this Sosh....

Lackey has gotten Ortiz out both times he faced him.

1 too many chances on that scrub
Why are we pulling Lackey?

Pull fucking Gary Massacre Jr.!

if oliver throws a weak outside fastball, it's gonna get ugly
Who was it that said Juicer was going to cost us a run?
Anyone with brains.
somone did at the start of the game in the first thread
here's a hint:

Make him eat his Chonies

Please, PLEASE Allover... PLEASE pitch well
do your job well... go right after em!
Just woke up in Europe...

To see this messy situation. Fuck.

Take care of business, Darren.

Then let’s string some hits together (AKA something from our bottom half, please.)

This AB scares me a lot

Come on Oliver, get it done.

one pitch wash... dont remind me
"hes not takin it out on anybody"

Are you blind you old piece of shit?

Lackey looks like he wants to go "Jason Kendall" on HGH

and i’ll effing welcome it.

now can we bash the guy?!

I hate GMJ, but he did spend all season proving to us that he does not deserve to play. Fuck Sosh.
I really don't want any more runs this inning. Please Darren. Just 1 out.
God DAMNIT

STOP LETTING THE ANNOUNCERS BE RIGHT WHEN THE PRAISE EVERY INCH OF THE RED SOX COCK

"wicked swing"

get off papi’s ball sack, it was foul.

Sheesh - VLAD didn't say anything

Did you see the look on Vlad’s face?

“Bro – don’t tase me”

That might have been the most lost I've ever seen Ortiz look.
i hear we're getting SQUEEZED by the umps tonight

true?

its going both ways

lester has a rather wide zone

hard to tell how wide the zone is for lester, since they swing at every inside pitch instead of working a walk
The third and first base umps have been pretty biased with the swinging K calls though.
THIS WILL BE A MOMENTUM SWING
damn it lets get some runs

matthews your ass got lucky

YES!

Way to go Oliver!

SIT DOWN BITCH!!
ALLOVER!!!
MARTIN LAWRENCE!!!!!!! WHOS DA MAN!?!?!?!?!?
GMJ shouldn't play...

we said it in the pregame thread and look at how it played out…

Awful decision by Scioscia.

The idea that his defense is “good” is based on old knowledge. He has completely sucked this year in the field. He should never play…

SOMEONE PLEASE UNLOCK THE F-BOMB RULE

I WANT TO CURSE THE RED SOX

F________K’d PAPI

Good Job D.O.

Way to go.

RALLY MONKEY TIME
THANK YOU OLIVERRR
ohhh

left right… left right… " sit down ""

Hopefully the camera follows GMJ into the dugout...

“Hey John, nice game.”

I hope the camera follows HGH into the clubhouse

Beatdown Central

PLEASE WATCH YOUR STEP AS YOU EXIT THE BOX!!!!
Oliver fucking NAILS

Fuck you again, HGH.

Aybar: Lean over the plate and get hit

by a pitch so you can get on base.

That could have been the most important pitch of the game!
angels baseball inning

get them on
get them over
get them in

or just hit a homerun

alright hud!
fill us in
rex hudler says that about the halos

aka “hud”

All ships move to attack formation!
Someone has set us up the bomb
figgy single GA double and....

a tex homer!!!

Actually mine was an Ackbar line.

But All their base ARE belong to us.

You guys are ahead of me

I’m on a wicked 10-second delay or something.

I look at the board and see what happened before it happens

Oliver

Pride and Job

Thank You
