AYBAR HOMERRUUUUUUN
Get out of here!

HR Aybar

Everyday Erick Aybar!
GAYYYYYYBBARRRRRRRR
wow...

i expect more out of you PHI.

Hey, now

(g)Aybar thing was not invented by me.

In fact there was a discussion about this a while ago…

And you should not expect too much out of my by now, I would think, hehe.

We're squaring up a lot of balls today

just going at the OFs

watch for meltdown.
Is Aybar on steroids now?

I mean, he’s just so massive and he is hitting so many more homeruns

and he never smiles...

and has posters of Jose Canseco in his locker and his breath is bad…

and has backachneBar

Quick Bryan! Call your girl and hang up! Vlad’s coming up!

Do it tomorrow too...

I’m going to the game and I need to see Vladdy go deep live again.

that sounds REALLY kinky
Vladdy going deeepp. Bharv call your gf and hang up!
If only Grady Sizemore were doing as well this year as the commercial makes him look...

my fantasy team would be demolishing.

cant believe i passed on pujols

facepalm

Never pass on Pujols.

Ever.

Even when he’s 50 he’ll be #1 pick.

Still can't believe we let O'Day go

given how crap our pen has been this year

Im pretty sure he was a Rule 5 guy
well, we let him go before our pen became crap
No joke

Even if we were lights out, having a guy like that with a weird arm angle really affects that opposing hitters.

I want O Day back
Something wrong with Speier?
No, he's solid...

as a long pitcher when we’re down by 10

Paul Simon sighting at the Skanks game...

and he is wearing a blue hat. Hes a Rangers fan! Phuck Paul Simon!!!!

It your fault Vlad struck out

You see what they tried there?

horrible call
whoa

gamedayers … was that on the black?

no...not even close
Vlad is done.

Yeah, he’s a regular rally killer.

not a strike

Bs. Let’s go weaver gives us a good 8th

A FOOT OUTSIDE?

ORLY???

bullshit...that pitch was in the texas dugout
hey blue!

seriously? bullshiat.

Maybe he shoulda consulted the catcher on that call?

Tea time next inning...
if fuentes gets that big a zone

he’ll get an easy save

no save moar angel runs
Finally out of my

Pajamas!

what?

Mrs. Rev Halofan wake up?

punk rockers

sleep naked

in their own vomit
weaver at 90 pitches
11k's

For the weav

Weav’s definitely back.

where was that?

this blue is HORRIBLE

from LSB blog on Vlade's K

LOL
That was not a strike either. Fucking ump is horrible.

karros please stfu
Put it on mute...

turn on the radio.

radio is way ahead of my tv
But the radio streaming online is slow.
my internets down
ANGELS WINNING!!!!
11 k's for Weaver

Vlad & Aybar hitting homeruns

I’ve been missing a good game

Mathis horrible.

This should be more than a 1 run lead.

it has been a good game.
sob

Not what we needed

S H I E L D S

in the dugout … been a long lonely lonely lonely time…

Hope he comes back strong next year

been my fave Angels pitcher since I started watching them

By the way, I was at that game last night. Anybody who thinks rivera even had a chance at catching that homerun is wrong. It was easily 5 feet beyond his glove.

thanks

television camera is minor league bullshit for the Angels.

on tv it looked like if would have just jumped he would have caught it
yeah

and of course no camera shot to give a better angle or anything…

exactly. Altho, the behind the pitcher camera at Angel statum is better than the one at Chicago. Every hit Thursday looked like it was gonna be a homerun.

on the jumbotron too. But I got a good side view of it and he would had to jump off the top of the fence to get that.

what about the one Matthews tried for?

from RF it looked like he had it

gonna be diamond club'n it tomorrow behind the plate.

my once a year splurge.

invest

in sunscreen

rev, did you get my email?
You'll be below me...

front row Lower View behind the plate.

throw beach ball...

at me.

plan on bringn' your halo hulk fist?
starting to come off

NOooooooooooo

quit being so negative

like a little girl on Oprah crying

good job WTY

good move by Soth, IMO

Jepsen more likely to induce DP

and I'm officially on drugs

kind of hard to ground into a DP with runners on second and third

our hopes rely on jepson

He sucks. Hope I’m wrong

been rockin and rollin lately
Go cry to Oprah

about it.

good work jered

now if only the rest of the staff could only follow your lead.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap

good job Weave

if anyone can k young

i say it’s jepsen

Ohhhh jepsen

bring your best shit to the mound please

please no sliders anywhere near the belt
c'mon fat woman be good
Jepsen = awesome.
cmon blue bullshit
This is by far his biggest test
oh that is huge
I KNEW YOU COULD GET HIM!
Zomg 99
wow

I will eat crow gladly. 1 more out tho

Bringing the heat
Rick Vaughn strikes out Young...

i mean Jepsen.

juuuuuust a bit outside
IF he came out to the Wild Thing song with a mohawk

he would instantly be our best reliever.

And my favorite.

dont go high fiving god yet

need one more k

embarrass him!

Jeebus that's some heat
GOOD OL COUNTRY HARD BALL

AHAHA

damn jepsen coming with the HEAT today
damn clutch jepsen

dead byrd walkin

i think jepsen wants to 1-up feliz

i say do ur thing

OUT OF THE INNING!
100mph on the last pitch

flamethrowing, in a good way!

more RUNS please
He got it holy shit!

100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great Job Kevin!!
He hit 100 in that at-bat to Byrd
Jepsen = PANTHER
Shhhhhhhhh no panther comments til game is over
yeswecan is the co-inventor of the Panther

I think he and cupie get a pass on that superstition…

i didn't mean POTG

i was using it in its original form — to praise a single performance as PANTHER

3rd pitch was 100!

fuck the slider i guess….

That outing just saved our season
lol oh gosh for real...?
Showing off a young kid throwing 100

painting the corners puts fear into teams.

If they know he can throw it that hard and locate it, they will start having second thoughts about getting to a weak bullpen.

Also, hyperbole.

ive been developing a man crush on jepsen
sweet sweet lovin from our fat woman
Man, if this kid pitches like this come Sept/Oct, I will wash Scioscia's feet
seriously! who would have thought...

he had a 9.00 era in the PCL!

I will personally spoon feed him spaghetti
i hope he finally realizes that the slider is his problem pitch

stick with the 98-100 gas and the 91-93 cutter

Kevtali Jepliz

BAMMO BAMMO bammo muvvfuggas

Jepsen....wow.

Nice knowing you, Shields.

1,000 apologies to...

Mr.Jepsen. May need an insurance run for fuentes

Crow cookies or Crow Ice cream

for Desert?

Ever heard his story though?

One of the frontrunners for comeback player of the year.

Dear Kevin

I like the way you work it.

<3

Jepsen might be vying for Fuentes' role next year...
Anyone think about letting a pitcher start the 8th and get 1 out

Then bring in jepsen??

100 mph bullets

Eat that Nolan Ryan

10 rookie pitchers this year

Adenhart, Jepsen, Palmer, O’Sullivan, Ortega, Mosebach, Loux…and three more? who?

Rafael Rodriquez known as Rat Rod

and Fernando Rodriquez

whoever coined "rod"

should die a horrible death.

Rafael Rodriguez, Fernando Rodriguez???
and Rich Thompson?
ya
Chopper pitched last year!
Daniel Davidson

most notable for getting Frankie’s jersey 57, a sign of no respecting the “off-year” for a great player.

Final List

Adenhart, Jepsen, Palmer, O’Sullivan, Ortega, Mosebach, Loux, FRod, RRod, and maybe Rich Thompson

Scratch Thompson

add Davidson

Imagine if Arrendono comes back to last years form

Then we would have a pen again

What's a pen?

to write letter to gramma with?

I was thinking that we could put them all on a pen

and make it a give away day,

obviously

All the pitches I saw on tv were 99mph or less...

which pitch was it? I can rewind and take a pic if you want.

the last pitch - gameday said was 100mph. TV said 99
Should I take a pic and post it?
I was wrong - even tv said 100mph. That's just amazing.
only 1% more amazing than 99mph
The last one was 100 mph
Fuck I knew they were going to turn Kendry and Gary around.
Kendry's shown some pop from the right side recently
makes sense against a sidearmer
Low strike there
That's horrible
fuentes

Please just don’t walk the first batter. That pisses me off.

+1

location location location

please be fuentes pre-all star form
don't provide alcohol to minors.
Now that I'm 22

I completely agree.

Senior from Servite died today...

car surfing

jepsen still in for jones
hell yeah

way to listen to me mikey!

omg Soth letting Jepsen pitch?
I agree with it just shocked

since it goes against his whole managerial philosophy of letting veterans play their roles

But it goes with his new philosophy

of beating Tejas

No radar reading on that one!
where's Mike Scioscia?
Can I has Cheeeez please?
Want some crackers with that cheese sir?
Damn good decision, Soth.

stfd!

lmfao fail!!!
lol

jepsen shaking mathis off twice

and goes high GAS

Would have LOVED to see that

F***ing mlb.tv…..

OT matt

you made “quote of the day” on my fav website last week,
samizdata.net

I love you Jepsen.
CLOWNED .. i love it
again no radar - too fast for the radar gun
Dear Andruw

You forgot your bat.
Idiot.

lefty/righty I don't care

how do you take him out there?

Because lefty-lefty is good juju
Good job Jeps

Let’s finish it Fuenty

no chance...

Drew jones. Sit down. Here comes bf

I understand the strategy...

but fuentes has been prone to a bit of long-ball this year…i dont like this move.

the mvoe of bringing fuentes in against hamilton and blalock?
It's not over until the fatman (Jones) strikes out!
heard fans booing when they took Jepsen out
Soth gave Jepsen the full 1 ip.

Now it will lower is era!

jepsen auditioning for post-fuentes closer role ?
fight it out with a healthy Arredondo
if they both pitch to their capabilities

can’t go wrong with either one

if they are going to play the lefty righty game

then lets get Bulger up in case either of Hamilton or Blalock get on

nothing like a closer with an ERA well over 4.

ugh….hold on to your seats!

man, that crowd is pissed.

they wanted a strike.

Fuentes has been so bad

I benched him weeks ago.

Dont screw funtues blu.
THROW STRIKES FUENTES!!!!!!!!!

GEEZUS HELL.

fuentes doesnt get the benefit of too many calls
Karros is so condescending when he talks

annoying

please dont go full
Please describe it, people!
Line drive up the middle

full extension dive by aybar for the out.

ball was SMOKED
Nice, thanks

Obviously, Phyzz isn’t much help.

it is rare that i am speechless

it was that good

aybar catches a liner behind the 2B bag

Doggy gets a treat!
Fly balll..........Caught.
Aybar!!!! GOLD GLOVE

standing ovation!!!

It was a trap!

YESSSSSSS

well at least he made him hit it
What a play! Gold Glover!
He does not play for the Yankees, so no
good doggie as rev would say lol
Aybar saving Brian's ass
Dear Josh

That was a trap.

<3

fuentes

Got to stay with him. He’s an all star and our closer.I like the move. Great catch aybar!

go ahead homer

and now the defensive play of the game

"Ay-Bar let's go, Ay-Bar let's go, blitzkreig Bop."
Angels win!!!!!!!!!!!

Come from behind!!!!!

Whoops...

I’m just psychic :P

ummm

premature leakage

Jusc
*just psychic
1st pitch strike

i like it brian

2nd pitch strike

i like that too

Blalock didn't
If Soth is going to this lefty/righty matchups in the 9th

I would teach both Jepsen and Bulger to play LF, so they could reenter a close game

LOOK at all the RED
The stadium is breaking out...
ugh....

fucking fuentes.

take him OUT
ok another lefty I guess give him 1 more
murphy sucks at life

please end this

Crowd sounds geeked
okay 0-2 again Brian!!!!
On your feet..

even at home…

go back inside to finish
Light up that halo.

Just Another Halo Victory!!! off to read LSB lol

You know what's awesome LSB?

This game counts just as much as lastnight……..

fuentes looked like straight garbage

wins a win

3 line drives vs lefties..... yea I wouldn't call it his finest hour
LIGHT UP THE HALO
LIGHT THAT SWEET HALO UP
LMAO

way to dominate Fuenty…good god

Light up the Halo!!!

Just another Halo Victory

light it up.

fuentes still sucks.

31 for 35

You’re right, he’s terrible.

Kendry would've had that

Fuentesaur with the save!

@mattwelch: Hard line drive straight at K-Mo for the out.
lol at karros downplaying the angels win

koksucker

I hope fireworks strike Parrot Mouth Karros
u guys have no faith

No prob. Fuentes nails it down. Just another halo victory!

WTY panther...

with a late push from Jepsen to be sure

Anybody hear Psychiocs

Call of that?

what did he say.
I'm serious, that is unforGIVEable

Huge game, division rival who’s been kicking our ass, late inning dramatics, tension everywhere, crowd going nuts, AND OUR ANNOUNCER DOESN’T WATCH THE GAME. He’s late, he’s wrong, he has no enthusiasm.

BTW, did Murphy throw his bat at the ball? That was part of Phyzz’s original call…

Angels brass needs to play this tape over and over again. Totally fucking unacceptable.

What a game!!

Light up that halo and add that one to the divison lead! Halueliah Holy shit… Wheres the tylenol?

PHYZZ JUST DID THE WORST RADIO CALL I'VE EVER HEARD

Crowd roars, nothing. Says lamely, in quiet voice, late, that Murphy struck out. 10 seconds later, he issues correction.

Fire this assclown.

i heard it!!!!

its like he totally missed it. WTF!!!

Seriously, he wasn't watching
The Yankee game is on.
when does he watch?
he's on the radio

there is no video dummy

He's got no sympathy or passion for our beloved team, fucking amateur Phyz!
That's why I made the call for you here.
Did anyone hear when he said "Pick him out a winner"

in last nights game referring to the Texas batboy getting Hamilton a new bat with runners on?

He's awful, but Rory Markus isn't much better.

He makes similar mistakes all the time, but usually not when the game is on the line.

I've NEVER heard Rory make a similar mistake on radio. Never.
Rory would have be EXCITED!

He ends every sentence by raising his VOICE!

I was talking more along the television broadcast.

I admittedly don’t listen to the radio side much.

don't even cry to me about Ron Washington's team...

go what we went though and still be in first then we can talk

With all the himmin' and hawwin' over at LSB

We’re still up 4.5 games, talk about warped perspectives

rollcall
nice timing
haha

i was at a bbq. cut me some slack

That was a hell of game.

Great game Aybar, superb relief pitching by Jepsen

Wait wait wait...

after all that they interview Fuentes?

Jepsen speaks English yes?

He's already at the tit bar

drinking on Josh Hamilton’s tab

and alittle smoking in the boys room (puff)
That was WRONG Fuentes

What an idiot

Maybe its an inside joke

we don’t know… let’s not jump on him for personal stuff.

If you want to hate him, hate the pitcher.

What did he say?
The redsox are going to lose

Tonight in the city, espn will bleed red. Then sniff youkilis’ undershirt and feel better.

Pinstrips

Will hail over espn tonight
