The bottom line is that both Frankie and Shields did not look good at all. Tex made an error… which he shouldn’t have. But if Frankie , or Shields, would’ve been anywhere NEAR effective it would not have mattered.
Frankie gets a Rou-fucking-tine groundball to end the game, and it’s his fault that Tex booted it? Interesting position. So, from this point forward, there is no such thing as an unearned run, because every error is the pitcher’s fault.
That ball was scalded to first base. Come on man. The next few batters roped pitches off of Frankie too. It wasn’t like they were little bloopers and dinkers. Get a clue.
Annual August meltdown. I didn’t see the game, but from what I’ve seen here, and what I saw yesterday (botched defense aside), he’s right on track for a typical August.
good news is...
if we get the lead here… we don’t have to worry about another inning for the O’s!!

tanana40 - August 4, 2008
oh no
infant - August 4, 2008
IBB to HK
SoCalWine - August 4, 2008
wouldn't you walk the bases loaded and set a double play?
if you were the Os
tanana40 - August 4, 2008
i would...
but knowing the orioles, they’d just hit mathis with a pitch anyway =P
ZiK - August 4, 2008

So, nice to know we've got no pen left.
LA Seitz - August 4, 2008
geeeeeaaaat....
here comes Mr. Pop-up himself to end the rally.
howiestheman - August 4, 2008
Let's go RISP king.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
Anyone who blames Tex for this ...
... should hand in their Fan Club Card. This was all Frankie.
FlyByKnight - August 4, 2008
And Shields
infant - August 4, 2008
yeah... Shields
Red - August 4, 2008
2nd
WillGoAngels27 - August 4, 2008
+1
clover_black - August 4, 2008
Anyone who blames frankie
should write fanboy on their forehead.
That was all Tex.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
It was a combination of the two.
deer - August 4, 2008
I didn't hear anyone blaming Dondo yesterday.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
that's because we like him
and HATE matthews
howiestheman - August 4, 2008
And apparently Figgs, Aybar and Mathis too.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
meh...
only sometimes.
howiestheman - August 4, 2008
See, me, I hold guys with GOLD GLOVES to a HIGHER standard.
Not a lower one.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
GMJ had a Gold glove
WillGoAngels27 - August 4, 2008
why does it have to be one or the other?
ihearhowie2.0 - August 4, 2008
well frankie gave up two more hits after the tex thing
norcaliangelsfan - August 4, 2008
H@T3R!!!
:P
but seriously… this one’s on shields and frankie. honorable mention to UHaul
howiestheman - August 4, 2008
So was yesterday really on Dondo and Lackey?
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
read above
howiestheman - August 4, 2008
No way
Blame Tex for two runs if you want. Not four.
The bottom line is that both Frankie and Shields did not look good at all. Tex made an error… which he shouldn’t have. But if Frankie , or Shields, would’ve been anywhere NEAR effective it would not have mattered.
infant - August 4, 2008
I blame him for giving them four outs.
Everything that happens after that is on him.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
i thought we waited until after we lost a game to do blames....
and…i think we’re tied right now?
ZiK - August 4, 2008
Really?
Frankie gets a Rou-fucking-tine groundball to end the game, and it’s his fault that Tex booted it? Interesting position. So, from this point forward, there is no such thing as an unearned run, because every error is the pitcher’s fault.
Dumbass.
LA Seitz - August 4, 2008
That was a routine groundball?
That ball was scalded to first base. Come on man. The next few batters roped pitches off of Frankie too. It wasn’t like they were little bloopers and dinkers. Get a clue.
FlyByKnight - August 4, 2008
To bad howie didnt steal
and juan had to take a pitch
WillGoAngels27 - August 4, 2008
Here we go Jeff!
SoCalWine - August 4, 2008

wallispdub1 - August 4, 2008

SCHalo - August 4, 2008
agreed... he should crowd the plate and take one
Red - August 4, 2008
that 0-1 pitch was more a strike than the first one to Mathis
MH252525 - August 4, 2008
Sherrill should lose...
because my wife says “he has dorky facial hair.”
Angel Hawker - August 4, 2008
She was right!
SoCalWine - August 4, 2008
wow, where was that?
SCHalo - August 4, 2008
wow that 2nd pitch looked good

BigBangRobbDawgg - August 4, 2008
second time this year?
ZiK - August 4, 2008
YEP!
infant - August 4, 2008
bedtime!
Angel Hawker - August 4, 2008
The halo shines tonight
Saunders as panther, should have won #15.
tanana40 - August 4, 2008
is it just me?
or is that actually a win where I’m not feeling good about the team
MH252525 - August 4, 2008
i don't feel too bad.
we played shitty today, and we still found a way to win. kinda like earlier when our offense sucked, we still found a way to win.
b0rd3rline - August 4, 2008
WALK OFF WALK....LOL
what a way to end it….....
HUNTER = PANTHER
norcaliangelsfan - August 4, 2008
I didnt think we could have two walk-off walks in the same season
WillGoAngels27 - August 4, 2008
my tv thanks figgy for the walk!
wallispdub1 - August 4, 2008
Thank you Figgy
Shields and Frankie – get your heads out of your asses.
infant - August 4, 2008
Torii Hunter another Panther in my book
WillGoAngels27 - August 4, 2008
this defense has GOT to get back to where they were
before these last 40 games
SCHalo - August 4, 2008
How about the pitching ?
Speier looked better than both Shields and K-Rod today! That says something…
infant - August 4, 2008
Really?
I didn’t see the defense screw up behind Speier.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
Thank you
Seriously.
LA Seitz - August 4, 2008
he's actually looked decent recently
SCHalo - August 4, 2008
says something like
“HOLY CRAP!!!”
image courtesy of google image search for “holy crap”
gdog009 - August 4, 2008
that was ugly
Red - August 4, 2008
I don't like Frankie wasting Saunders' win #15
infant - August 4, 2008
very disturbing
especially when he needed only one out
SCHalo - August 4, 2008
Exactly
Head out of ass, thank you.
Same for Shields.
infant - August 4, 2008
You mean Tex?
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
;-)
No.
Tex, if anything, gave up two – not four. Shields was not effective, neither was Frankie. Actually, both were bad.
infant - August 4, 2008
Everything after the error is on Tex.
That’s how I see it. Gold Glovers shouldn’t pull that bullshit.
Zu Long - August 4, 2008
That's a bit of a stretch IMHO
anyway, it doesn’t matter. In the end, it’s just another halo victory.
infant - August 4, 2008
POTG=Torii
mainly for just coming back
SCHalo - August 4, 2008
I'm not 100% sure on this but I think
The last 8 games Hunter has started the Angels are 8-0
And the last 3 games GMJ has started they are 0-3
MH252525 - August 4, 2008
I believe that is correct, sir.
infant - August 4, 2008
+ keeping DFA on the pine.
gdog009 - August 4, 2008
Sorry Joe
Should have been #15
SoCalWine - August 4, 2008
panther...
that crack chick with the rally monkey
Red - August 4, 2008
lol.
yes.
scottnak - August 4, 2008
Picture please
infant - August 4, 2008
my favorite part
was Phyz saying “Monkey, do your JOB!”
yeswecan - August 4, 2008
This is Shields'
Annual August meltdown. I didn’t see the game, but from what I’ve seen here, and what I saw yesterday (botched defense aside), he’s right on track for a typical August.
Clutch - August 4, 2008
Agree.
infant - August 4, 2008
i told ya'll...
krod just wanted a win, instead of a save….
ZiK - August 4, 2008
Yeah. Saves are for show. Wins are for dough.
