“If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also…and then suddenly turn back around and peg him at 95 miles per hour in his cheek.”
Mathis kept having Arredondo throw the splitter before 2 strikes, the first time he threw it he got a swing and a miss but then they adjust to it. But guess that’s more on Arredondo needing more than 2 pitches.

Get the other out so we can win it Shields.
Zu Long - May 12, 2009

angelsfan777 - May 12, 2009
worst in the majors?
worst in the AL? pretty much
teopeht - May 12, 2009
One more
Big Easy Halofan - May 12, 2009
lets go
get out of this
dmoney2741 - May 12, 2009
Too bad for WTY...
sothball - May 12, 2009
Lowell - quit moving in so you can get hit
angelsfan777 - May 12, 2009
I know that our starters are coming back but that isn't going to help our awful short relief
we need to make a move
tanana40 - May 12, 2009
I think Dondo needs to go back down for a while. Just my opinion
angelsfan777 - May 12, 2009
if you are going to say make a move then say what you would think would be a good move
pendletonmike - May 12, 2009
i would think that we could move a middle infielder or a prospect (Brown?) for a reliever
tanana40 - May 12, 2009
meh, loux, palmer, in the bullpen
or some variation thereof, and we’ll be fine.
teopeht - May 12, 2009
who do you get rid of out of the pen?
pendletonmike - May 12, 2009
i dunno but i dont think we need to make a move with all the quality pitcher we have.
teopeht - May 12, 2009
we have one reliever (Oliver) with an ERA that is not embarrassing
tanana40 - May 12, 2009
FINALLY
runs please
dmoney2741 - May 12, 2009
poor weaver..............
norcaliangelsfan - May 12, 2009
Good job by Shields.
Hard to ask for more than a couple groundballs in that situation. Dondo and Oliver couldn’t hold it down though.
Zu Long - May 12, 2009
its monkey time
princeton11loveshalos - May 12, 2009
I'm sure the monkey is out. Wonder which video was played.
angelsfan777 - May 12, 2009
just dondo did bad the bullpen is ok
oliver and shields didnt do that bad
dmoney2741 - May 12, 2009
Oliver did pretty bad.
Hit the guy he was supposed to get out, gave the opposition a free run.
Zu Long - May 12, 2009
wow he made one bad pitch
and that is the first thing he has done that sucked since coming back
pendletonmike - May 12, 2009
I'm not saying he's a bad pitcher or anything.
I’m saying in that particular situation, Oliver did pretty much the opposite of what we wanted.
Zu Long - May 12, 2009
funny thing is that Oliver does better against right handers but Soth uses him in spot
situations against lefties.
tanana40 - May 12, 2009
agreed. olly is solid
but for the coldest guy on the team, he probably would have been better off throwing em straight down the middle.
teopeht - May 12, 2009
Jered always seems to get the short end of the bullpen.
Zu Long - May 12, 2009
that's why last game he was like
“f that, imma do it all myself”
ZiK - May 12, 2009
Not to mention all that missed offensive opportunity early.
Stirrups - May 12, 2009
true - we did have bases loaded - twice
angelsfan777 - May 12, 2009

Dear Mike,
there is such a thing as over-managing.
Stop the sac-bunt pinch hitting.
KTHXBYE
Caseys Kiss of Death - May 12, 2009
i agree
with Rivera coming up
pendletonmike - May 12, 2009
This is what happens when the inside of the plate gets taken away from you
by bloodthirsty dickbag Bostonians.
Seriously, I’d love it if sometimes umpires would just warn only ONE team, even if there is obvious reason not to.
Caseys Kiss of Death - May 12, 2009
Which begs the question: knowing Sosh's propensity for cheek turning, why would ANY ump EVER warn the Halos?
Stirrups - May 12, 2009
Baseball Jesus sez:
“If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also…and then suddenly turn back around and peg him at 95 miles per hour in his cheek.”

Octo-mother of manly jesus?
Funke5ive - May 12, 2009
Well one thing that also hurts is the OF defense
I know Juan made a nice throw tonight. but he’s slow on d
and Abreu is just plain bad out there. 8th inning up by 2 runs, 1 out and he’s practically playing on the warning track for a weak hitting infielder
MH252525 - May 12, 2009
nobody on base as well

Mathis kept having Arredondo throw the splitter before 2 strikes, the first time he threw it he got a swing and a miss but then they adjust to it. But guess that’s more on Arredondo needing more than 2 pitches.
