Final Score in Seattle: Angels 10, Mariners 6
Turning the page on a sweep in Texas quickly, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim turned their current ten-game road trip around like a gang of bruised bikers discovering an isolated bikini beach. The Angels tore thru the Mariner bikini patch by a score of 10-6 and it really wasn't that close as the girls from Seattle went helplessly shrieking from Angel bats bouncing back from their Texas heatstroke.
Kendry Morales led the way with 2 homeruns. With a Cuban accent thicker than flan, Morales told postgame interviewer Jose Mota that he did not mind bating lower in the order, that he respects the manager's decision either way and that he has been taking early batting practice. Torii Hunter, who is a way better interview, had a bases loaded double that gave the Angels the lead for good. He also made a few amazing catches in the game - one in the Left-Center gap, running, in particular saved two runs as a shaky Jose Arredondo looked around for help from the pitchers mound, wondering what happened to all those idiot fans who thought he should be anointed closer before the season began.
The Angels belted out seven extra base hits - four doubles and three homeruns - a seeming first for this team that seemed to be just a bunch of single-hitting ninnies only yesterday. The iffy pitching continued, with Leader of the Pack John Lackey having little bite to his once legendary curveball.

teopeht - May 18, 2009
These pics take time to make. I don't just pull them out of my ass.
44FAN - May 18, 2009

teopeht - May 18, 2009

I like it
When two of the candidates for POTG are on my fantasy team…
Ahhhhhh…how relaxing and comforting

Torii
That catch on the sinking line drive in he eighth was HUGE.
For a moment it looked like another long night for the pen- Torii made it all better.
Rusty Carew - May 18, 2009
wow, effing dodgers got lucky
runner missed 3b and gets called out and then the Mets flub a catchable fly ball in the OF.
teopeht - May 18, 2009
I kept laughing at Vin Scully
“He clearly missed third…”
Uh, the ONLY camera angle that captured it was not even remotely clear.
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
Results Up.
scottnak - May 18, 2009
I posted in both places but got the red with no credit--what's up?
Halo84653 - May 19, 2009
You didn't make a comment in the section below...
post something, anything in the comments.
’ing your screenname here:http://www.halosheaven.com/2009/5/18/871703/monday-in-seattle-pregame#comments
yields no hits. So, you did not post. Hence red marking.
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
should have been "searching" where the 'ing is...
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
Downing, are you filling in for scottnak or just the self proclamed ass who needs to get in everyones busniess?
Halo84653 - May 19, 2009
i think he is sticking up for the amazing job that scottnak does...
calm down man!
wallispdub1 - May 19, 2009
He is sticking up for Scottnak
By the way, 84653, learn how to spell and how to count.
Rev Halofan - May 19, 2009
Sorry I don't live up to your standards. You will never have to worry about me misspelling anything on your board again.
And I hope Scottnak didn’t think I was being critical of him. I appreciate what he does. I was just doing what he told us to do if we had a problem with our picks. I did post my picks in the comments and now they are not there. Don’t know why. It’s not my website. As far as waiting 5 minuets, I did, but my picks didn’t show up. Usually I don’t have to wait at all. But I really don’t give a damn. I have much bigger things to worry about than this stupid contest or anything that goes on on this board. You all have a nice life.
Halo84653 - May 19, 2009
see you in 2 weeks when it’s convenient for you.
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
they aren't Rev's standards so much as they are
standards set by the EDUCATION SYSTEM…
There is no need to get your panties in a bind. Just fix the problem and don’t call out anyone that is trying to figure it out for you. Well at least you are sticking to you’re signature….
wallispdub1 - May 19, 2009
Speaking of sigs...
is that a Little Big League reference in yours!

wallispdub1 - May 19, 2009
I’m the “self proclaimed good guy” trying to help you figure out what you did wrong since I had 30 seconds to figure it out…evidently, the fact that I took my time to help you was construed as my being an “ass.” You are a classy fellow.
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
You're an ass Downing I HATE YOU!
how DARE you try to help me;) good riddance freaking guy
blochead - May 19, 2009
I'm not really a fan of the recaps these days...
just my opinion of course. Calling fellow fans idiots? What is that about? Bikini/biker scenario ramblings? What? How about some actual results like about how Lackey did other than personal opinion-based snide remarks that obviously HAVE to be made.
Whatever, ups to the Cuban brother. Light-tower power today. Keeping ahead of Tex. Go get ’em tomorrow.
TheAngelsAngels - May 18, 2009
Torii was something to behold today too.
TheAngelsAngels - May 18, 2009
CNNSI and ESPN have nice plain ole boring recaps of the game if you want.......
why not read those instead….no one forces you to read the recap here.
norcaliangelsfan - May 18, 2009
Leave him alone
Sounds like an Angel fan. If you send him to one of those sites, it will seem like cruel and unusual punishment, only to read up on the East coast bias, or NFL. All for only stating his opinion on one of the Rev’s most spectacular post game write ups.
eyespy - May 18, 2009
Oh I read em all...
TheAngelsAngels - May 19, 2009
The Rev recaps the games the way he sees fit
if you don’t like it don’t read it.
teopeht - May 18, 2009
Try Athletics Nation, they have the recaps you are looking for.
44FAN - May 18, 2009
I can handle the criticism
The goal here is to be reporting as a fan not as a calculator. I write two game recaps this season that were like what anyone could read anywhere and I was like “…well this is not any fun anymore…” so I write to have fun and publish to entertain intelligent people in touch with their inner-9-year-old-Angel-fan-heart.
Rev Halofan - May 18, 2009
I respect your retort here.
Just saying. If the idiot Angel fans bit weren’t in there, I would not have said anything. Usually I just read and move on.
TheAngelsAngels - May 19, 2009
It's the qualification for being an idiot.
If being one of the fans that originally wanted Arredondo to get the closer spot after Frankie said adios then sign me up for the next Michael Bay movie, cause I’m an idiot.
Zoe Necrosis - May 19, 2009
Bruised Bikers = Bad (agree with you)
Bikini Beaches = Good (disagree with you)

Morales for POTG.......after the singles nights in Texas
That Power Display was something we really needed.
acuda27 - May 19, 2009

norcaliangelsfan - May 19, 2009
ROFL
Did I say Morales for POTG? I so ment to say……….Kendry!
Lets keep the Halo Lit!
And to Hot Bats a’ Bangin – Morales, Rivera, Howizle, and Torii
acuda27 - May 19, 2009
I agree with you, norcal!
How could such a post possibly come from acuda’s keyboard? :-)
red floyd - May 19, 2009
Is it time to change your sig?
anaheim angels - May 19, 2009
Not quite.......Morales has not made his statement in the Bigs yet.
He is just Getting Started.
acuda27 - May 19, 2009
Don’t they have a promotion at the ballpark called “singles night?”
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
Yes, in fact they do. I thought of that after I posted my comment.
acuda27 - May 19, 2009
maybe to generate more offense, they should have a “foursome” night. ;)
Downing Rules - May 19, 2009
hey oh!
