I know that 9 out of 39 folks responding to the poll on “Tips for Noobs” don’t want play-by-play, but I for one would appreciate at least some batter-by-batter type info (as in the previous ST game threads). Thank you!
Alway fun to try to guess some teams' 3-letter call name...
Especially ones from two-name cities like the Padres… San Diego and the Giants … San Francisco. And why are the halos still “ana” and why is even REV making fun of our name in the text of his post above? ;)
“rolling the hole” refers to hitting the ball through the hole to the opposite field. But I’ll most certainly take a “roll the hole” to Woody’s pull side!
Don’t know if it was before your time here, but “Soth” is an infamous typo from a game thread, and since Scioscia is usually fairly difficult to spell for some people, it stuck as our shorthand when posting quickly in game threads.
In fact, I was sort of impressed at his composure getting out of the jams he put himself it. He just wasn’t throwing strikes like he was in his last ST appearance. Maybe I’m just too excited about this guy, but 3 BB’s, 2 WP’s, and a HBP is pretty wild.
Are you referring to the stats in the boxscore, or did you actually see him pitch?
He came in with the 2 runners on, 0 outs, and managed to not only get out of the inning without letting the inherited runners score, but also pitched a 2nd perfect inning to close out the game. It doesn’t seem like you’re giving him any credit for some awesome work today.
The game was as exciting as watching concrete cure for the first 7 innings.
Then Brazier (pronounced it like a women’s bra)? came in and built a great bonfire.
The, RafRod came in and put out the fire. Apparently, all of our batters were required to wear blindfolds to make it fair.
Reckling is pitching
i hope he has another good game

I wanted to ask the Rev if there's one queston stumping most (all?).
Can’t post a comment though.

its so annoying cuz i can’t figure it out
princeton11loveshalos - March 10, 2010
Someone will get it today
Now that he added a hint. Those of us that already posted are locked out from competing.
SalmonStream - March 10, 2010
The last question is the tough one?

Yes, kind of

angelsfan7, bookmark the gameday, and just change the date and teams to the current game, then that way you’ll always have the link!
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
Alway fun to try to guess some teams' 3-letter call name...
Especially ones from two-name cities like the Padres… San Diego and the Giants … San Francisco. And why are the halos still “ana” and why is even REV making fun of our name in the text of his post above? ;)
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
i assume its
just the computer people at mlb.com being lazy. Maybe the guy in charge is a Doyers fan? lol.

Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
So much for the bigger glove he is reported to be using.
44FAN - March 10, 2010
its cause he lost weight
if he was still fat he would have blocked it
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
Napoli let's one slip through his fingers there.

Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
It looks like
he might need to. I really hope he puts it together with his command early in the AAA season this year..
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010

The Reds and Angels are wearing nearly identical uniforms.

most people from Newark are
princeton11loveshalos - March 10, 2010
I'm sure he will change allegiance...
once the paychecks start rolling in. This dude’s a stud and I won’t ever think twice about what team he rooted for growing up.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
Reckling hits him
1st and 3rd, 1 out
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
There's been a lot of empty seats
Is it because it’s early in the spring season, or is that normal for weekday games?
WiHaloFan - March 10, 2010
it was crowded for the first game
i dont know how it normally is though
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
Not sure.
Might be the weather. 55 degrees and windy.
sothball - March 10, 2010
Lets see if he can escape another jam
ryanfea - March 10, 2010
Reckling with a 4 pitch walk
basesloaded, 1 out
GIDP right here
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
whoa
that was a pretty intense double play. Reckling ended up tagging out the player in the pickle. But only 1 run scored! 1-0 Cinci.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
good work by Amarista
to recognize he had a play for an out at 3B
ryanfea - March 10, 2010
ball hit to SS
Aybar fumbles gets the guy at 2nd
guy going to 3rd is mental and stuffs and gets caught in a run down
so 1 run score going to the bottom of the 2nd
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
stops not stuffs
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
Now that is Scioscia style baseball fan members.
Classic run down play perfectly executed, this makes the skipper happy to see that…
44FAN - March 10, 2010
in a run down
its supposed to be 3 throws right? they threw it like 6 times
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
Come on man, this is spring training. Sometimes it takes a few extra throws for some guys.
44FAN - March 10, 2010
I think it depends on the elusiveness of the runner...
Slow guy = 3 throws or less. Fast guy may take a lot more.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
Is gameday working for anyone?
angelsfan7 - March 10, 2010

Looking to see Juan Rivera hit that first dinger of the year.
44FAN - March 10, 2010
and sniff a bat or two
SalmonStream - March 10, 2010
sorry
just a ground-out to 3B. But Juan looked good running it out. Must’ve been those 13 pounds he lost.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
hopefully it doesnt effect him like it has to Napoli
affect effect
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
which one is right
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
hmm..
effect = brought about by a cause or agent; a result.
affect = To have an influence on or effect a change in.
so based on that, you’re wondering if Rivera losing weight will AFFECT him.
The EFFECT of Naopli losing weight has caused him to hit 2 bombs already.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
and this my friends
is why I am going into Physical Therapy.
Screw math and screw english.
I love anatomy and PE. Lmao..
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
I usually follow...
Affect is a verb
Effect is a noun.
Most of the time at least.

Are you Rex Hudler?
ryanfea - March 10, 2010
Technically, according to the great Soth,
“rolling the hole” refers to hitting the ball through the hole to the opposite field. But I’ll most certainly take a “roll the hole” to Woody’s pull side!
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
for that comment you win an autographed Garret Anderson wall clock.

I really don't know how to take that

b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
Soth our manager?
not Sothball our “great” commentor?
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
what defines sothball?
DAD OF VLAD - March 10, 2010
I was referring to our manager
Don’t know if it was before your time here, but “Soth” is an infamous typo from a game thread, and since Scioscia is usually fairly difficult to spell for some people, it stuck as our shorthand when posting quickly in game threads.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
There is a rebel alliance that hates Soth
and just types Sosh. I being one of them.
I dislike greatly thinking of Sloths when thinking of the Angels most luminous manager.
PhiSlamma - March 10, 2010
Most luminous!
I kind of drift back and forth between Soth and Sosh, depending on what keys my fingers are closest to on my keyboard. Kind of GA if you ask me..

Torii Hunter Sets the Record Straight
Torii’s response to his comments about latino players not being black- http://toriihunter.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/03/a_hurtful_unfortunate_episode.html?partnerId=rss_ana
AlphaAngel - March 10, 2010
Shocking that he would have to explain that
Commander_Nate - March 10, 2010
Time to score some runs. Hopefully.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
Who the heck is Brasier
And WTF is he doing giving up 5 runs?
red floyd - March 10, 2010
If this weren't a game thread
My supernova pic would be in place of these words
Commander_Nate - March 10, 2010
Supposedly a pitcher.
Like Shea Hillenbrand was a DH.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
hahaahahahahahaaahaahahhahaaa
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
That's the thing about Hillenbrand, he wasn't afraid to pretend to be a DH. I respect him for that.
red floyd - March 10, 2010
A guy at single A level...
getting a taste of the bigs in Spring Training.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
Sandoval up again
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
and K's
with the uglyist swing i have seen today
Romine up
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
We need an ultra slam
A slam so grand, they give you double the points.
Commander_Nate - March 10, 2010
yes that is what we need
to bad Q wont bat this inning
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
Catcher: hey batter you gonna swing
Romine: no thanks im just lookin
2 outs, Trumbo up
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
k3yerout = Romine
K3YEROUT - March 10, 2010
Well, that's the game, please drive home safely.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
mercy...
K3YEROUT - March 10, 2010
Trumbo grounds out

SHUT OUT
Reds 6 Angels 0
Vladd#27 - March 10, 2010
I wonder if that colon cleanser can be adapted to memories of really bad baseball games?
sothball - March 10, 2010
Shit, the Reds are gonna win the West!
Commander_Nate - March 10, 2010
They gotta get past the Red Wings first.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
diablo vision says "good night"
K3YEROUT - March 10, 2010
One thing good to pull out of this poor showing
1. SOS had a better outing
(1b. it’s only ST)
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
Today's good things
hmm, not much here.
SOS – 3 IP, 1 H, 0 R
RafRod – 2 IP, pitched out of Brasier’s abortion of an inning.
thats about it, besides Wood getting a base-hit.
I’m kind of disappointed that Reckling showed no control. Here’s hoping he figures something out this year and puts it all together..
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
I heard he was squeezed on one of the walks.
and he only ended up giving up one run. I think it is a good start and surely, he has work to do at Salt Lake.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
I wasn't so much disappointed with the results.
In fact, I was sort of impressed at his composure getting out of the jams he put himself it. He just wasn’t throwing strikes like he was in his last ST appearance. Maybe I’m just too excited about this guy, but 3 BB’s, 2 WP’s, and a HBP is pretty wild.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
Wow...
I didn’t know he had those pitching extras. That IS pretty bad.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
On another note, I take it that that one recent post about spring training with over 100 comments
has been permantly shit-canned?
(Not that I’m complaining…but I didn’t know that could happen…)
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
Any fan can delete their fanposts at their own discretion.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
do you think that's what happened, or was it the editors?
there was a lot of gnarly stuff in it, among other problems…
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
I think it was probably deleted by the editors
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
probably your fault
lol
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
yea probably ours
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
Not me
Which post are you talking about?
WiHaloFan - March 10, 2010
the one by 100wins
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
Yea, BMH was messing with the dude
and it went badly
(or well, if you find that sort of funny)
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
it went the way that I expected when BMH said what he said but in general yes it didn't go over well for some reason.
after his first two (Defensive) comments i had the feeling it would turn out that way.
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
I forget the dudes name who got all pissed off at everyone
you ultimately called him an asshole
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
that will make him remember maybe lol
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
Oh, that one.
He was.
WiHaloFan - March 10, 2010
Oh, I never saw it...
I was just addressing “I didn’t know that could happen” portion of your comment.
Further, there have been at least 2 (maybe more) fanposts about “spring training” tips or things to do in the area within the last month or so.
Downing Rules - March 10, 2010
Yea, someone was complaining about that on the Tips for Noobs post
tip 22 or something—too many posts on the same thing
can’t accuse me of that (maybe just too many post period…)
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
Well it is only ST-SOS looked pretty good.
And Rafael Rodriguez didn’t implode.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
RafRod "didn't implode"?
Are you referring to the stats in the boxscore, or did you actually see him pitch?
He came in with the 2 runners on, 0 outs, and managed to not only get out of the inning without letting the inherited runners score, but also pitched a 2nd perfect inning to close out the game. It doesn’t seem like you’re giving him any credit for some awesome work today.
b0rd3rline - March 10, 2010
I meant he didn't let the situation he inherited,
Spiral out of control, and pitched out of the jam. Lets face it, that could have been way uglier if he HAD imploded.
halofolife - March 10, 2010
so what i miss??
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
a pretty shitty game
from what it sounded like
some good game thread stuff though
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
cool
TheAngelsColts - March 10, 2010
The game was as exciting as watching concrete cure for the first 7 innings.
Then Brazier (pronounced it like a women’s bra)? came in and built a great bonfire.
The, RafRod came in and put out the fire. Apparently, all of our batters were required to wear blindfolds to make it fair.
sothball - March 10, 2010
I prefer bonfires built from Wood
Raaddad - March 10, 2010
reply fire
