Let's Go Angels!
alright Hokie Joe

you must protect this house(lead)!

lets go big joe!
Colonel Saunders!

Qualify for the W!

Figgins taking over the game
joe's curve looks sharp today
Good inning for Saundo
nice inning

we need to have more of those to avoid the blowpen as long as possible

hey did u notice that an angels broadcaster actually showing excitement towards the angels
some more runs would be dandy
juan reaching for a ball
aaaand aybar FLAILS
Failbar with the power display
WTH

Menopause woman for JITB? Weak sequel to Mini Sirloin Burgers

wtf?

this commercial…

torii makes it look too easy

and yet he makes the plays… AYBAR

damn torii....you suck......

lol…….j/k

When did Cesar learn how to hit?
before he learned how to run the bases.
Come on Joe, get through this

We need 3 more innings out of you.

arson squad warming up in the blowpen
shit

bulger getting lose.. boo!

joe says... there will be NO inherited men for you fire man
Good job Joe!
The threat of Bulger warming up inspired Saunders

“Get this guy out or the bullpen will blow your win.”

It's going to be OK tonight

Bullpen will get the job done, Fuentes will get the save :-)

way to get out of this!
lets get some more runs boys !
Let's Go Angels!

Add on some runs now!

Hello everyone/anyone...

just got home from work…looks like a nail-biter…

im sorry but...... fail
Wow that was IDIOTIC

and a result of Soth’s managing

if he makes it

you would have been praising soth!

crap........greedy
shit

over aggressive!

bad bad choice figgy
ughhh that makes it hurt more
that would have scored him from 2nd
and figgy's choice probably just cost a run...

izzy’s the man

it's hard to fault the aggression.....

but thats just me

i dont fault it either...

id say just trust your teammates to get you home

Anyone see a shot of Ebel on that?

I assume Figgy ran through a stop sign. If not, wow.

it's in front of him

it’s on Figgy

Oh yeah, good call
If Figgy wasn't leading off the inning I'd say maybe he forgot there was no one out

That was horrible

lol it almost seems like rory is reading HH
But that was a dumb mistake

He was out by 10 feet and NO ONE WAS OUT

Yes Rory......

exactly

LOL

hahahahahahahahahaha

yeah that was fishy...........
WAITING FOR THE MIRACLE TO COME

and that balk might be it!

Hmm, didn't see the balk on the replay, anyone?
stupid ump

:slips him another five:

i didnt see anything..

think we got the benefit of the call there

i dont see it
Neither do the O's announcers

Oh well….

This is awesome lol
bobby is gonna go deep right now

deep into the dugout…

lol thats excatly what i was thinking when he K'ed
Angel Hernandez strikes again

That ain’t a balk, at least one that I get seen called ever

ok my bad Angel

I guess that knee thing is a balk

hello........goodbye
Wait........no swing!
By the way

What kind of a name for a pitcher is “Walker”? You’d think he’d change it.

what about Balfour?
lolololololololol

mini……….

ask and ye shall receive...

mini sirloin burgers

Torii time

the sequel

I feel bad for the O's

They probably have calls go against them all the time because they play in the AL East

not to mention

pitches at their dome

not following you there wallis...?
nm

I’m a little slow today

For some reason i thought you were talking about the skydome
here..
Give Me A Break!
Yes, this is baseball and you angels fans defintely know how to wear your leotard, but he decided to call timeout very late and pitchers are taught to follow through. What’s the problem here? Are you guys sick of playing in the sissy division of the AL? If your done dancing with A’s and playing grab ass with the Mariners, its time to stop whining and move up to the AL East brand of baseball.

posted by a troll when beckett got 6 game suspension
lol that sounds like every douche bag sux fan

AL East brand of baseball WTF!?

seriously

eff that guy!

They do go against them

for 25 games against Bos and NYY

( and HH goes wild!)

here are the lyrics-

Way up west (way up west),
there’s a story told (there’s a story told)
about a bunch of cowboys.

Tiny and bold. (tiny and bold)
Ridin’ tall. (ridin’ tall)
Tall in the saddle!
Herdin’ cows the size of schnauzers
but they’re cattle!

YIPPIE AYE AY, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS!
YIPPIE AYE OH, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS!
YIPPIE AYE AY, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS, HA!

You need therapy...

…pass the A-1 sauce…

think it's funny

how much we like that commercial.

let's go K-Mo!
Kmo....

I GOT A FEVER!

YES YES YES

Kowbell!

Oh, THAT's why they walked him last time
exactly

i have always believed in the Kowbell

yipppiayyyaaaaa mini sirloin burgerssssss

im liking what im seeing from kendry

kmo with the figgy impression
2 run double

tossed at third

Never make the first or last out at 3B

LOL

ok

Has a team EVER committed the 2 Cardinal Sins in the same inning?

Great hit Kendry but Torii scores EASY

Ok, wow.

When was the last time a team made a first AND third out at third in the same game? Come on guys.

Wait, same inning!
or same inning......
Only a Soth team even has a chance.
in the same inning no less
Thank you K-Mo!
dude... 1st & 3rd out @ 3rd...

those are baseball no no’s … but surely will take the runs !

i'll give kendry a break

but i think we should put wood in for figgins to teach him a lesson

at least figgy walks...

wood should be in for aybar if anyone… or dh him and start izzy at SS

Miracle Balk in Baltimore.
dont give wihalofan any ideas
kendry has been raking lately
and he's finally doing it with runners on base.....

which is even better.

warming up to the majors!
Kendry to doubters on HH

“Bitches.”

"Kiss Mah Pantero Halo Lovin"
arredondo...

keep it clean buddy

the bats are alive and well
Finally we get Markakis out.
A R R E D O N D O !
nasty................
I'm confident in Arredondo much more so than his ERA suggests

seems like a lot of “his” runs have scored after he left the game

or he comes in right as the other team is on a hot streak.
R A C I S M

Fsw shows us playing the Skankees and WE ’RE the colored ones!

Ok, Dondo is fine.
so how bad were the two errors?

Im up in the bay area playing uncle buck to my sister’s kids

the first one not a big deal....

second one helped pave the way to a 3 run inning

the second one being Aybar's?
yes...
I dont suppose you could guide me to a place that

shows the Angels games up here in Fairfield???

game link

game link

pw: homertv.net

btw....fairfield is a trash hole....lol

Vacaville is way better…….lived there for two years.

haha...

yea they are moving down to Socal next month. Thanks for the link!

KK

way to go jose !

'Dondo...nice inning.

Shields for the 8th?

I think Dondo should go back out there
depends on how long this half inning is
Just asking...

But right now is it common sense to let Arredondo pitch the 8th if the Angels don’t score instead of giving it to Shields?

Nah

Let’s get back into a good routine, Dondo, Shields, CLoser

I just can't take another game like the Minn game though

Arredondo was pitching well. Hard for me to take him out

I don't believe I have enough remaining fingernails for Shields in the 8th...
Best reliever in baseball for 4 years

He’ll be fine

i'd say yeah

dondo has a hot arm

shields is done

ET’s time is now

i wouldnt say done

but id still like to see dondo come out in the 8th

I don't think shields has much left in the tank

He has been so erratic the last 2-3 years

no he hasn't

he’s been as good as anybody in the game

eh..
i guess i have too much faith in the rubber arm of scot
Fear is not a factor for Soth.
chuck and duck baby!
Ok, Naps right up the middle!
Why isn't fuego warming up?
the logic is go

dondo in the 7th scot in the 8th and fuego in the 9th

but i say leave dondo in and bring in fuego in the 9th

Anyone else feel like the game is tied?
lets put some more up
wood should bat for aybar...

just saying

i agree but i doubt it happens
yeah i know just trying to start some banter
I wonder if those 2 people in the 2nd row

had to pay for that 3rd seat so they’d fit.

If only you could include them in your posts
Kotch would've had that.
Good Job Naps

Someone NOT thrown out on the bases

More runs please!!!
oh boy here we go
Aybar will blow this.
why am i feeling a bad DP vibe
Because it's Failbar.
cuz that is what aybar does
yeah he's really trying for it too

hes swinging at EVERYTHING… still thinks he’s mini-vlad

i might go ape shit if E bar gidp
is it possible for Aybar to take a pitch
that pitch nearly hit him and he swung
Ebel forgot giving him signs just go hit for him
Failbar living up to his name
well...at least it was just one out ?
Can we have a Panther and a BOTG

Aybar deserves a BOTG even if we win this one by 10

At least it wasn't a DP.
im not to upset that he k'ed cuz now that increases B wood's chances of playing
you would think that........

but it doesnt

or it increases the chances of izzy playing ss and aybar sitting
That's at least an improvement

Even with GMJ taking up the extra spot in the order.

Is he batting below miranda right now?
nope

he’s in figgy range though

dude don't even compare Figgy to Aybar

Figgy actually gets on base and therefore can use his speed to steal, and oh yea he can catch a freaking ball thrown RIGHT at him

easy there

the question was about average not overall game

yea I just don't want Figgy in the same breath as that load of crap

not mad at you at all, just steamed at Failbar

I wonder what Wood must be thinking everytime aybar screws something up

while he rides the pine

Miranda?

“you have the right to remain in the lineup
anytime you K or GIDP it will not be held against you…”

This would be perfect for one of those inspirational posters
that assumes we have a manager with LOGIC

the Soth is not logical, Steve Finley pounded worms into the ground all summer and was starting in the playoffs

That Finley April fools still makes me crack up lol
bases juiced...

izzy time … lets do it

Figgy

raising the old OBP

figgy been on base alot today.......

good game for him.

Except for the baserunning blunder, he's been the best player on the field today.
KMO says hi.
He's been good too

But Figgins has been disruptive on the basepaths. He generated a 2 run 2 out rally with a walk, being a pest and stealing a base.

Lets go Maicer! Break this shit open.
figgy with a walk!

lets go izzy

lol

YIPPIE AYE AY, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS!
YIPPIE AYE OH, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS!
YIPPIE AYE AY, MINI SIRLOIN BURGERS, HA!

kmo is to acuda what sirloin burgers are to you...

bordering fatal attraction territory buddy

dammit ... izzy

a hit there would of pushed aybar closer to the pine

fyi

results will be up late tonight. got an ugly essay to deal with…

did anyone get points?

also, Where are these results posted?

i don't know

They are usualy posted in hte postgame thread within 30 minutes of the game’s end (if i’m around)
by the end of the night if i’m not.

Tonight, it’ll be up before I go to sleep. Who knows when that could be though.

i hope this isnt a taboo

but will the pregame guesses be posted tonight?

good luck with the essay

possibly.

Though I wouldn’t hold your breath It’ll be up before I sleep… or maybe if I decide tot ake a writing break.

oh

i say do you essay and dont worry about getting the results/pregame guesses up tonight!

OK Scot let's do this!
Uh oh...here comes Shields.
No Bad Shields Please
Oh, yank him

Sick of this s*it.

The Scot Shiels Experience
What the hell do you need to see Scioscia

He has NO IDEA where it’s going against CRAP hitters

strikes scot... strikes
DP right here please
What about swapping Shields and Dondo?

Bad Shields is usually obvious fairly early in the outing, but when you go Dondo then Shields, there’s nobody else to go to in the 8th.

Speier's up in the pen
Too bad we'll be down by a run before Soth takes him out
there's a strike... now REPEAT
NO

is this gonna happen again? WTF

Nice D by Kendrick and Shields
nice backing up!
Thank you Lord.

Glad D doesn’t have to get over the plate.

Thank god he got an out before giving up a run or 3.
Wow TY for swinging at Ball 4 Greg
We got an out and a 3-run lead

Let’s have some confidence

When's the last time Scioscia came out just to talk?

Wow. Shields on notice.

my thoughts exactly!

awesome!

That never happens

He had something serious to say

sosh is giving shields the biz

i love that

Oh, Sosh was not friendly!
yea we need more of that Soth
Hula Dula style right there
When does aybar get it?
Haha

“Time out, I need to go out and talk to my shortstop.”

that would be awesome!

He could have wood replace him during the opponents at bat.

oh.... October 14th
never

his D is too awesome to be talked to. ha. ha. NOT!

More nice D by Scot!
Soth "WTF shields get your shit together"
c'mon shields just 1 more out
lets see some of that stuff from sunday scot cmon
holy crap whats with the game at sunrise tomorrow
seriously!
sunrise on the west coast.

I haven’t even finished my coffee yet by 9:30

east coast must not believe in sleepin in or something
dont they know we on the west coast live a hardy night life?
East Coast's version

of a day game

5pm here, nice!
Awesome, I can watch it while I work!

Working at home FTW.

YES

Shaky but another scoreless inning — 3 in a row for Scot!

damn those scoreless innings!
Wow

A 0 on the board for Shields

Mini Sirloin Burgers
mini sirloin burgers
If Zahn doesn't swing at ball 4 I think that changes the whole complexion of that innign
Baseball. It is lovely, no?
my old football coach

used to say “IF your mom had a sack she would be your dad but she doesnt”

Haha

I love that saying

i try to use it as often as possible
Sosh needs more of those pep talks

take charge italian stallion

he doesn't seem the type

to like to do that in public.

seems that way... but if its not working behind closed doors

a in-game gut check never hurt anybody… didnt hurt scot

Says something

about Scot’s play of late.

couple more runs please
I'm wearing my Del Ninja shirt right now

I love it!

the live broadcast is a pitch ahead of the stream
refresh your stream
It would be pretty freaky if it was the other way around.
lets go fuentes!
ugh Fuentes sucks
how about a pep talk with fuentes sosh ?
come on fuentes

this is making me struggle to keep the faith in you

i want to believe in him too
4 of 5 so far on the season

they havent been easy tho

This softball pitcher throws puss.

He even looks like an angry scowling little girl.

this is not happening right now
good thing that wasn't hit to aybar
Thanks for the out!
fuentes gets paid off by phillip morris
Say what you want about Fuentes but

I’m much more tolerant of a leadoff homerun to a guy like Jones than how Frankie used to walk so many leadoff guys

Yep. Better to go after the guy. If he hits it, he hits it.
Agreed.

Thank goodness Shields didn’t lose the last batter in the 8th, we could be tied in the 8th.

With a 3 run lead I see your point.

Though Fuentes is getting close on the Walks

Fuentes just got lucky AGAIN
Fuentes just got lucky AGAIN
How so? He barely hit that
Rather be lucky

than good.

PHEW!!!!!

2 down

so the pitch before the Adam Jones HR

was a ball, and Rory said “that ball WAYYY outside” and in my head i heard “WAYYY out west..”

i think this commercial needs to go away soon. lmao.

I have a feeling

it’ll be with us all season.

Just another halo victory!!!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Light up the Halo!!!
K

Light it up!

LITE UP THE ROAD HALO
K for out #27

Nice work

Angel Hernandez with the Save

Uh… I mean Fuentes

Hahaha

It was a good pitch.

IT HAS BEEN LIT!!!!!!!
LOL.......

light it up……..

ZOMG WE AXXSHULLY WONNED 2 GAYMZ IN UH REAUX
Great game!

Much needed winning streak. :-)

2 games in a row!

we’re on a roll! woot!

Sit the F down

JUST ANOTHER HALOS VICTORY!!

i think they call this a winning streak!

That ball was a half-foot inside

But I’ll take it!

If it was...

Napoli did a great job selling the pitch IMO, it looked good live.

Fuentes should be more excited

He just got a Save & the Angels won a ballgame!

He was worried Mike was coming out there to take him out of the game.

That’s how he looked!

either kendry or howie for panther
LOL

The O’s feed showed Fuentes standing in the handshake line with his hat off. Napoli reached up from behind him and rubbed his bald spot. Awesome.

whoa a switch to dodgers talk?
Someone's freakin out

in the video control booth
