I think Palmer realizes this is his chance to really break out in the Majors and that being said, he has more to lose… Loux probably has a place in our bullpen whereas Palmer is definitely heading down to AAA if he doesn’t stay
Only got to see the tail end of this one- almost as good as Ryan vs. Guidry back in the late 70’s, we won that one 1-0 too. Saunders was incredible, but Figgy made killer plays at third to save the inning. Looks to me like we are over April and everybody’s head is back in working order, except maybe Speier. Great game.
ahhh
ihearhowie2.0 - May 9, 2009
Great game!!!
sothball - May 9, 2009
Figgy has really made himself a good defensive third-baseman
tanana40 - May 9, 2009
so let him become a FA, trade him,or sign him?
mastermind565 - May 9, 2009
He was atoning for his own failure on the basehit that went right by him…I think he was asleep!
K3YEROUT - May 9, 2009

princeton11loveshalos - May 9, 2009
Didn't see the play
But at the end of last year, Figgy was looking like Brooks at third. And I’m not exaggerating.
vladtheimpaler - May 9, 2009
This is one of the best games I've seen in a LONG TIME. And I like the high scoring games, but this one is sick!
acuda27 - May 9, 2009

Machismo Baseball
Grienke left in for 8 innings and 115 pitches. Saunders in for a CG/shutout. Formulas thrown out the window. Awesome shyte.
Stirrups - May 9, 2009
Either way this goes...
Props to both starters.

pendletonmike - May 9, 2009
Nap is all just as intense as Saunders this match.
44FAN - May 9, 2009
Hey, what's that call?
Ball hit batter’s foot while he was still in the box.
Stirrups - May 9, 2009
it was an accident but he should have been called out for it
pendletonmike - May 9, 2009
I would feel much more comfortable if we had a 2 or 3 run lead
easily could have with how hard the Angels have hit some of those balls
swiss mcgee - May 9, 2009
wouldn't we all
angelsfan777 - May 9, 2009
but not as much fun.
Stirrups - May 9, 2009

i love watching them all slap hands and Tori gave him the ball
pendletonmike - May 9, 2009
cant wait to see the highlights on ESPN news.....

probably won't show any
angelsfan777 - May 9, 2009
15-14....back over .500! Back in 2nd place! Just a half game out of first!
Lackey, Vlad, and Santana are all around the corner. The Halos have weathered the early season storm.
Chzburger Jones - May 9, 2009
have they ever not?
pendletonmike - May 9, 2009
Loux tomorrow for the sweep
angelsfan777 - May 9, 2009
oh yeah
so who do you think they will keep?
Loux or Palmer
pendletonmike - May 9, 2009
If it comes down to it, Palmer...
…based on performance. His sinker is really working.
sothball - May 9, 2009
Gotta Agree
I think Palmer realizes this is his chance to really break out in the Majors and that being said, he has more to lose… Loux probably has a place in our bullpen whereas Palmer is definitely heading down to AAA if he doesn’t stay
trojanangelfan - May 9, 2009

trojanangelfan - May 9, 2009
sweep and quack would be great
angelsfan777 - May 9, 2009
Greatest pitching in YEARS!!!!
Only got to see the tail end of this one- almost as good as Ryan vs. Guidry back in the late 70’s, we won that one 1-0 too. Saunders was incredible, but Figgy made killer plays at third to save the inning. Looks to me like we are over April and everybody’s head is back in working order, except maybe Speier. Great game.
