Halos Heaven

Jered Weaver Cruises on 2nd Inning Cushion, Angels Crush D-Backs

Final Score in Arizona: Angels 12, Diamondbacks 3

Starting Pitcher Jered Weaver got out of a bases loaded jam in the bottom of the first inning and his Angels teammates rewarded him with 8 runs in the top of the 2nd inning. That was all he would need and the Halos cruised to a 12-3 victory over the D-Backs.

The big hits in the big inning were a 2-run double by Jeff Mathis and a 2-run tribple by Maicer Izturis. To complete the cycle in that inning, Torii Hunter hit a 2-Run Homerun for the 7th and 8th run of the inning to chase D-Back starter Billy Buckner.

The Angels have now beaten the National League West in interleague 12 times this season against only 4 losses. They remain a half-game behind another team for first place in the American League West.

Izzy......all the way....

love the well rounded offense.

is the signal still failing?
idk

there on like the 20th commercial so probably yes

I missed most of the game, so no vote from me...

..but glad the offense scored 12 runs. I believe that makes us 9-3 against the NL West this year.

LOL Rory and Gubi look like they work at staples i nthose shirts
bastards

didn’t show the final out of the game. No love for Q

The vote for Panther is void.

Love bilingual interviews.

2 questions takes 5 minutes to trudge through.

Izzy gets panther. Howie is shedding a tear somewhere.

Great game today

i wish we could play the NL west more often.

Is a 2 -run triple and a double still considered "slap-hitting?"
Izzy needs the same break as Rivera...

…give him regular playing time and he will show he’s a solid, reliable player (if he doesn’t get injured).

point parade for the pregamepicks too!
Optimism prevails!
Stolenbases should be banned from the game.
Play by Little League Rules
Figgy would probably disagree : P
Mathis was pantheresque today

Man, this game was totally bitchin’, totally cherry, and totally groovy. I really dug it.
