LETS GO HALOS
SWING FOR TOKYO!

we need runs

Scot Shields looks really sharp
I think so too

2 good outings in a row (baby steps), will tonight make it 3?

LETS GO SHIELDS
Everyone watch this or go to hell

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjwXG-MB67o

that guy is pretty rad

 i bet he listens to the dave matthews band

Has he been around recently?
isn't THAT hell?

smooches

Guess I'm going to hell.
Good to see Naps hit one out
Napoli narrows the gap
Wish it wasn't solo

I will take it though.

I love that kind of side salad
GOODBYE BASEBALL!!!!

Mike Napoli!!!!

Yeahhh for Nap
**************HOMERUN*****************Mike Napoli!*************************

Off to the races.

Rangers get three more free wins

They get Houston at home this weekend. They should be on a 14-game streak coming in to town next week.

Damn again?

It seems like they either play Houston or Pittsburgh with C.J. Wilson walking batters galore and somehow getting out of it.

Damn interleague schedule

They got to feast on the chumps

yeah no kidding..

wonder who they paid off for that schedule.

they probably stalked someone until they got that schedule
You mean found out their real name and

looked them up on Google Maps, followed them to the grocery store? Etc.

Meanwhile, the Angels get the Rockies this weekend

Who aren’t even in the division the AL West is supposed to be playing this year (the NL Central). They’re pretty good too.

Mitch Williams(yes that Mitch Williams) said something kind of smart

He suggested that teams in the same division should play the same interleague schedule to avoid this problem.

I don’t know if it would work out, but I thought that was pretty smart coming from a guy like him.

Who came up with this lineup???

Willits really?

Someday

he will prove you wrong

and in the meantime we will have endured how many below average starts in the OF?
reggie sucks

but he tries so hard, its tough for sosh to NOT start him.

Look guys I can do tricks – slide on the grass – sheeeze

Reggie, Reggie, Reggie!
Reggie will hit one out here
First Major League HR
I'd rather he start over Kaz right now

http://www.baseballamerica.com/statistics/players/cards/?pl_id=83196

How is that supposed to make us feel better?
Shields in the FIFTH???
You bet
You better you better you bet.
"when I say I love you, you say you better...."
I think this is the Good Shields.
Brandon Wood has skills
really?
Check your sarcasm meter

it might be broken

I was going to ask what he was saving them for.
Brandon should be DFA'd

and whoever gave him that “revamped swing” should die a slow painful death.

It amazes me how good Wood can look in the field one night, and then look clueless the next.
B Wood

is nearing the end of the line i think

On the plus side this is the best I've seen Scot in awhile!
Does Wood have more errors than hits yet?
Classic Shields
strikeout, easy groundball, and jammed shot that didn't make it out of the infield dirt?
then another hit, walk, walk, HR
ugh... he got a flyball to RF
The fans at the stadium need to out-shout those Doyer fans.

This is OUR house

It sure feels like it's Dodger Stadium tonight

I am sure when the Yankees and Red Sox come it will be more of the same. Sometimes I wish the Angels had more thug, Oakland Raider type of fans to quiet the opposing team’s fans down.

NO.

You don’t mean that.

lol I like being able to go to the stadium and not having to pray i dont get stabbed…. unlike another LA baseball stadium

Hopefully they have extra police at Dodger Stadium for the Yankee-Dodger series
I might watch some of that, just to root against the Yankees.
I used to go to games in Oakland.

The Raiders fans who went were scary even to the A’s fans.

Dear Angels,

Please DFA Brandon Wood

Sincerely

Ryan Featherston

weren't you banned?
Ha Ha

Makes me laugh every time

or do you mean

designated for assignment

commercial? seriously MLBTV? in the middle of Shield's ptiching?
Thanks for that one Wood
Another strange outs at 2nd?
Now that wasn't a balk
Runs please, again
Just checked in on the game after being unavailable for an hour or so...

Kazmir, you are a miserable piece of shit. I’m done with you. As far as I’m concerned, we only have 24 guys on the roster. Fuck you.

so what happened is your fault

j/k

no... red floyd checked in too early.
Really?

He’s not even the worst pitcher on the roster.

Really? I'd put Saunders as slightly less pathetic.

Or are you talking relievers, too? Yeah, Rodney and Fuentes are pretty awful, but I didn’t expect much out of them this year.

Damaged Goods

It was only a matter of time when his winning streak will end. I guess it was to be expected from a pitcher that pitches using smoke and mirrors.

Maybe Butcher can tell Kazmir and Saunders that they can’t continue walking people at their current rates if they want to be successful in the Majors.

which Angel has the most career HR vs the Dodgers?

Vin’s trivia question tonight

why are u watching Vin in the first place

great broadcaster
Because Rojas makes up stupid baseball terms, I guess trying to be the clown Rex was.
Because it's bedtime

and no one can bore fans to sleep better than Scully.

I'd call this McAnulty guy up for Q

http://web.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?sid=milb&t=g_box&gid=2010_06_24_slcaaa_tacaaa_2

He’s up to .370 in AAA controls the strikezone well enough, can play corner IF and OF.

He's a big boy
so is Matt Stairs
and yea I doubt he's 225 if that picture is recent
He's also 29 years old
Matt Stairs was 29 before he was given over 200 plate apps in a season
Matt Stairs had lumious moustache power
fail *luminous
Wood should grow one

Gotta try something

I'll tell Paul to grow one then
I wonder if B Wood's "Hip Flexor" is acting up again...
lack o talent muscle
maybe we can make it act up again
one can only hope

BAH! VLADE just hit the gamewinning hit for texas!

Like 5 hrs ago

lol it was a sports center news flash …. sorry hahah

No, VLADE played for the Lakers.

VLADDY hit the single for TEX.

Bobby Blast!
Burn Notice or watch the impending Halo Rally?

this halo rally will be a highlight of the year lol

Burn Notice for sure

nothing to see here

my ass is burnin, watching this abomination
Lay off the Tapatio
hot salsa ranchera
Too bad that Wendy O' Williams wasn't with us anymore

We could use her tonight

aaaccckkkkkkkkk BURN NOTICE!!!!
C'mon Bug

sheesh, as bad as a baserunner ;)

This was my first day of my 2 month summer break

I’m a teacher!!! I took a 3 hour nap after breakfast and a 2 hour nap after some afternoon delight. Now if only the Angels can make a comeback it will have been a great first day off.

Ha! I knew there was a reason why we thought alike

What area?

Math
+e^0
what subjects you teach

I taught 4 Algebra II’s with one honors section and one class of Geometry

Community College/University

Freshman level math courses. Beginning and Intermediate Algebra with some College Algebra and Stats (when they need a sub)

sweet

I didn’t major in math so I can’t teach at colleges unless I want to go back to school, but I LOVE HS.

You're a soldier

I’ve taught college calculus and even that was too much frustration.

teaching HS

is being a bit comedian, with a bit of actor, with a bit of pschologist, with a bit of math thrown in when they aren’t expecting it…..

close friend was a HS math teacher

with 5 sections much like your schedule. Holy hell I don’t know how she did it and not sure how you manage as well.

She ended up leaving the job after 4-5 years to pursue a Ph’d in Math Ed.

When I went into it I don't know how it would go

and was unsure of how well I would like it. But then I realized HS is about forming relationships with students, and once they know you care about them they’ll learn because they know it’s important to you.

Ummm... sure

The one fact I took from HS teaching (as a one day sub). Never let them smell fear otherwise you are F***ed

yea the students at my school take pride in getting

subs and even rookie teachers being able to cry. I don’t understand how, if their self-image is based on what teenagers think of them then…. they’ve got some problems

Every school is like that.

I liked subbing for HS best, hated 6-8th grades.

as a male

I can just intimidate Jr. Highers, you can’t do that in HS though as a sub because they’ll just call your bluff

I used to sub for like 2 1/2 years before becoming a teacher
I am short.

I never had to intimidate the HS kids, thank goodness, but the first day I taught was 9th grade and it was truly hell. The first class had been without a teacher for the first 20 minutes when I got there; the librarian was keeping them at bay and was trying to break up a fight between two big boys who were easily a foot taller than she was. Remedial reading, and half the kids couldn’t read at all. Stupid teacher didn’t call in sick until just before school started. The rest of the day was only slightly better.

The rest of the time working with HS kids was great, especially if they were older than 15. .

Jr High was simply awful every damned time.

The worst student I had was a 5th grader, and he didn’t even belong in my class. His teacher got tired of him and sent him to MY class. I could not believe it. Kid was pure Evil, mistreated by his father to the point that he was showing signs of being a psychopath.

I can do the math

But not the rest. Even relatively competent college students are a challenge. Why can’t they just take the damn derivative?

They will seriously write out half a page on what they would do

when the answer requires one line and maybe one step of simplification. Sad really

Do you guys feel being able to ace advanced math is a natural talent or can anyone be taught to do so?
A little of both

Certainly helps if you have a mind for it but some just cant or don’t have the mind for theory.

DING DING DING

We have a winner!!!

I suppose it's a left brain vs. right brain thing

I always had a difficult time with math and always required tutors, so this doesn’t surprise me. Luckily majoring in Sociology only required a little bit of stats. I would say I am probably more right brained.

Whereas I am the exact opposite.

I’m very logical, and I hated the social studies (“fuzzy studies”) because there is no way to find the “right” answer.

Fair enough

Sociology is in the domain of the Social Sciences…

Hang on, I’m sure someone will post the correct xkcd comic that I’m too GA to fetch

Here you go

http://xkcd.com/435/

Haha

That was actually really funny!

you guys should give your students extra credit for each Halo game they go to, slowly make a whole generation of students Angels fans

Math-deficent Angel fans though
I'm telling you

the Hispanic fans in Santa Ana are already like 75% Angels to 25% Dodgers fans. Keep in Mind no students in HS today have ever seen the Dodgers win a World Series.

nor have they seen the Dodgers beat the Halo’s this year lol

That's encouraging to know

Hopefully it will become 90% Angels to 10% Dodgers in a few years

Do you teach them what "afternoon delight" is...

…or do they? :D

ughh... highest teenage pregnancy rate

is suppose to be in Santa Ana, I don’t think they need any educating

Starland Vocal Band FTW!!!!!

2 on… 2 outs… lets drive these fools home

Torii needs to make up for earlier
Does that make up for it?
He's getting there

RALLY TIMEEE!!!

K GODZILLA! dont let vlade outshine u today!

need 3 run Stansui jack
Oh cool, Tron is pitching

that dude sucks

WOOOT!!! keep the hits comingg!!!

ok - I guess I can take them one at at time.

i have a feeling naps is gonna go yard with it right here

or not

you jinxed it – j/k

i blame blochead right below me lol

He proved me wrong

it was a ground out

That's the way uh-huh uh-huh

I like it uh-huh uh-huh

It's either a K or a HR
Get that Howie Kendrick look alike

BAH!, nice try naps…. almost…

Well, we got 2 runs at least
and there are 4 more innings left.
2 more to go

the bullpen has to keep it close.

We got plenty of time to win this game

Dodgers will wear out soon.

lol cuz they aren’t used to our great weather……

I want that Win

so I can “salute my fallen enemy”

i want that win so i can be ultra annoying to dodger fans i am friends with on facebook

dodger collapse inevitable
Hold em Shieldsy
I've been out of town for a few weeks

But Napoli seems to be a pretty competent first baseman from what I’ve seen. Other thoughts?

he's doing pretty well
I've been wondering for a while why they didn't play him at 1B more often, just to get his bat in
Poll: Who do you want to win the series... Yanks or Dodgers?!
I may be in the minority here, but The Yankees

I probably hate the Dodgers more than any other team in baseball.

I feel the complete opposite

The Dodgers getting wins at the cost of the Yankees makes the AL east competitive.

Regardless, one team will still be obnoxious

it depends on the standings for me: If the dodgers are good that year, I want them to always lose inter-league play.

If we are gonna be having to hope for a wildcard at the end of the year, I want the Yankee’s to lose

AL East

is really cutthroat. Might be division crown or bust for teams outside the East this year

neither?

Oh wait this isn’t soccer

Dodgers, definitely.

Always root for the NL in interleague games that don’t involve the Angels.

I couldn't care less
Shit sandwich vs diarrhea soup
I'm hoping for the earth to open up and swallow them both
Mean.
Hey, It's the Doyers and the MFY
I'll take the Dodgers.
Just for the fact that they're SoCal.
That's OK. I was just pointing out that given the teams, it wasn't mean.

:-)

I know you. You aren't mean.
Nice job Shields
Nice dig, Naps
but why is Nap having to dig those out?

Why can’t Frandsen throw to 1st.

Ok, I thought that was Wood.
oops I was wrong it was wood

lol duh, if its in the dirt, its obviously gonna be woody lol

That's what I thought, but I also thought maybe I wasn't paying attention.
I thought that it was hit to 3rd.

And Frandsen wasn’t that great at throwing to 1st at first.

lol true, how our infield has changed without abyar and izzy,… i miss chones arm

yeahhh they didn't get any runs
piss poor throw deadWood
Mathis Willits and Wood.
Oh, poor poor Tim Wilkie.
Ouch. On the hand and on the thigh.
If I was Mathis I would definitely take some pitches here

probably going to have to be right down the middle to be a strike

so much for taking a pitch Jeff
Rare instance where the Ump gets some applause
Umps are pretty good most of the time.

I appreciate them more than ever after watching some of the World Cup.

tying run at the plate…. o wait its wood…. nvm lol

at least there's only one out.

and hopefully willits will steal 2nd so no DP

Pitching carefully to Willits, I see. Smart move.
ok - I'll take a BB
Shields now has a better ERA than Kaz

like saying you’re better looking than Medusa

GA is the Angel with the most HRs vs the Doyers
Jump in front of the pitch!
Rally Monkey in effect!
yup - I hear the music
Crafty old pitcher

versus stupid young hitter

wood is due

for k #3

Wood disagrees
dammit Wood that was a nice pitch to hit

hanging slider

blast21dave, your xkcd is up
Outfield assist for Red!
WOW - Nice hit Wood
LET'S GO

RALLY RALLY

Come on Howie
nice doinker d-Wood
Whatchu Talkin' bout Willits
when i see it in the box score tomorrow

i’ll still remember that was a pos hit by wood

Time for another HOWIE DOUBLE
3 run homeruns are coooool
If he was looking for that slider

he hits it out

Is that Robert Plant on the mound?
No, we already had Kashmir pitching....
Come on Frandsen!
Do we even having ANYONE that can play SS if

we pinch hit for Wood later in the game?

Frandsen can.
Hey now, Wood has gotten like 3 bloop singles

in the last few games… Don’t jinx it!

Move Frandsen to SS and put Q at 3rd?
Let's get it done tarhead
Let's nail WTE's ass to the wall.
1-2 ... my nuts are shrinking. That was close.
Hey Alfredo, you're the only guy out there more useless than Dino!!!
You're kidding me
WHAT THE HELL was that
Way to kill a rally

Bush league.

Hey look, the circus is in town!
well below average baserunning Halos
wood, you idiot.
I really hate him...

…and have to put up with the few appologists left for him by hearing about his bloop singles and that he’s about to turn the corner and save the franchise.

Ya, I’m starting to really hate Wood.

wood = mental midget
I don't hate him but I don't want him playing.

I think he may be intimidated by playing at this level, which is Not Good. He may never reach his potential, or worse, he may reach it for some other team after we’ve given up on him.

um

that was terrible

Haha wow. They took a page out of the Dogs playbook.

FAIL game. One more behind Texas.

That lead just keeps growing…

Game's not over.

If we could only bat just 8 guys for a while.

You really think the Rangers will keep it going?

Well, the hope from many is they die down...

…because of the heat.

While all sounds great, it doesn’t sound like a solid war plan when you’re hoping a team with good talent will just stop competing and we just stroll into first.

They look damn hungry and are playing like it.

F*#K you Wood

Nobody EVER gets picked off on that move

Soth is such a ##%@ tard

stop putting on plays, our CS% is soooooooooo high

I'm confused by all this base running
Isn't that pressuring the defense?
action players

things in motion
continuity

Run like headless chickens on the bases

That must be part of the organization’s philosophy

pressuring the colon b 4 u shit
How bout dem Rangers
LATE.

The NHL season is over.

Dear Tony Reagins,

Why the hell is Kendry still on the 15-day DL? Move him to the 60-day and free up a 40-man slot.

Signed,

red floyd

Why are people concerned about this?

Why use an option on a minor leaguer if you can avoid it?

They were concerned enought about a 40-man slot to DFA Ryan instead of just sending him down
Ryan didn't have any options

You have to DFA in that case

He *started* the season in AAA
Then his contract was purchased
because

Tony Reagins should just forget about all the pesky details and give people here new meat instead of sticking with players we are bored with.

mickey mouse bullshit

it was cool when it worked in 2002 though, when they weren’t busy hitting all those homeruns in the post season

This is just way too old

It seems like the IQ of the Halos goes way down once they reach base.

No

Just repeated exposure to Dodgers.

Dammit... The restart of Futurama comes on in 15 minutes!!!
If Frandsen can play SS just put him there, call up McAnualty

or whatever his name is and let him play 3rd.

there's the 4th double.
uno mas pero nada mas
2 more please from the Angels
Man I hate Wood sooooo much
I decided to print his picture to fill an 8.5x11 sheet of paper, put it on my chair...

…run 4.2 miles, come home, strip naked, and put my moaky balls right on his face.

Putting running shoes on now…

I hope you have an ink jet printer
What happened to the Photoshop Thread?????
Usually a bonehead play seems to spur the other team to do...this.
Don't peopel remember

what Manny Ramirez did the last time he faced Francisco Rodriguez in the playoffs?

That bat died a Villain.
Good morning everybody from Bangkok, Thailand

this is a revolting development

Oh, come on, Moondoggy, you're not that bad....
not what my says
You know a bullshit thing about stats

Willits gets credited with a CS instead of Wood right there.

CS: T Hunter (8); B Abreu (6); R Willits (2)

Injustice……

Lots of baseball still left.
this is just stupid
Roll call..

this is terrible!

lol terrible indeed

Hey b0rd3rline

You gonna be at the stadium on 7/18?

If so, I can buy you that beer I owe you

I wasn't planning to.

But I certainly can! Where you sitting?

F109
Little rich for my grad school blood.

Give me another couple years and I MIGHT be able to afford those seats.

Seriously

I haven’t gotten close to Field All-star or MVP at all

I had a friend who had season tix in F108

Used to give ‘em to me last minute for free if he couldn’t go and couldn’t find any buyers. Too bad the price inflation screwed me out of that hook-up..

Got tix from DEADEND
can't win 'em all

but I still get pissed when we lose

Exxpecially when the Rangers already won ...

in walk-off fashion. Ugh.

really?

and who, pray tell, had that walk off hit? Hmmm? Hmmmm? R.Munkee can suck it

That guy hasn't shown up here in a while.

wonder if he was simply banned or decided to go to the Ranger’s message board to proclaim his hatred of the grinnin’ dominican?

we carry Rmink's

stupid karma

yep yep yep

Boy that Vlad is sure washed up

I love it when people are wrong.

Except I hate it when it is our General Manager who is wrong.

Ugh.... Bell he of the

incredibly straight 93 mph fastball and the good curve except for the fact he almost never throws it for a strike…..

I think Francisco got bored of being really good.
maybe Butcher had a chance to work with him
Bozo warming up to complete the Circus act.
Dude if only the Angels had Matt Palmer in the bully

he could come in get some groundballs and then they’d score 5 runs and win it going away

Wait, Matt freakin Palmer?

No no and no

I bereive it was funny joke.

my all friends rike matt parmer.

Hey batta batta batta swing!!!
he can't hit,he can't hit
We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher
This just really sucks

The Angels need to score like 20 runs to win.

OK, I'll use June's....

FUCK

I HATE the Angels bullpen

Reagins should be fired for his inability to put together a bullpen with the amount of money he throws at it

yes. absolutely.

not

bullpen pitchers are a bunch of flakes in general.
Like Punters in the NFL
Agree

That is why throwing tons of money at relief pitchers is usually a very poor strategy.

At least now I won't feel bad when I switch to Futurama.

Of course, that means that the Halos will stage an awesome comeback.

Enjoy the cyclops
The Futuruma Theme is one that always gets stuck in my head
This wouldn't be happening if we got to play the Pirates.
"It's been a while" Vin says...

“since they’ve piled up the runs.”

And the Lights are out...
AND nobody's home.
this completes the game for me

even the lights don’t want to see this

the delay will allow more time for beer

and consequently more fights

Don't they stop selling beer by this point?
in the middle of the 7th
ah I see
Serious beer sales going on right now...
did someone say cerveza

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

WITH THE LIGHTS OUT

it’s less dangerous

But there is a full moon isn't there?
I see what you want

You want me to say something about entertaining us.

nope

oh denial

Oh well, whatever

Nevermind.

Well this is merciful

The guy in the engineering booth must have decided the rest of the game isn’t worth the electricity.

Can someone who knows more about golf explain to me

where the greens at the US Open really all patchy and ugly because they were being forced to conserve water? I saw the same ugly patchy grass at the College WS today

greens were patchy

due to the grass. Pebble is usually like that due to their use of Poa Annua. the surface is smooth just not very pleasing to the eye from those camera angles

Way to go Papelboner!!
I think I just heard Vin refer to Papeldouche

as Papelbum

both of them are acceptable
I heard it too
I turned the channel...

What happened?

Lights out...
lik a rain delay

but dry

If everyone holds up their cell phones.....
yea I know the Doyers fans have really nice cell phones....

no health insurance but really really nice cell phones

They probably spent all morning waiting for that iphone 4

Then spent all afternoon drinking

Can't hold those iPhones up for light

Or you’ll lose reception.

I know someone who did that...

they didn’t come back to work cause it took so long.

It’s a phone for crying out loud.

I love the internet as much as anyone....

but am I the only one that feels I don’t need to have access to it at all times and until the cost for 3G or 4G service comes down, it’s way too cost prohibitive for people making less than I dunno, like 80k a year?

oh I don't know...

how did we all survive without internet strapped to our sides wherever we go? Try living life first. Unless you’re a doctor or really fucking important, try slowing down and taking in your surroundings.

Status and fashion statement

I believe that there are some genuine tech junkies out there, but the majority of the buyers seems to be early 30 somethings and under that definitely aren’t making close to 80k. If they want to spend a huge chunk of their income on something that they think will make them look cool though that’s their deal.

some people love sports, others love technology
i didn't know the McCourts gave their fans health insurance
Stadium is gonna be half empty by the time the game restarts
who would've guessed the Angels would be 20-7 since losing Kendry?

not me

Okay it's snort time.

snort

Ring ding dong ring a ding ding ding dong
oh, the shadows!

the horror! the horror!

Has anyone looked beyond Bell's ERA?

His peripherals are actually very good. He’s getting rocked by a .418 BABIP though.

I think the guy has potential

but I doubt he harnesses it this year.

he better... he was a first rounder 5 years ago
He might be closer than you think

16 strikeouts to 4 walks in 17 1/3 innings, and he gets lots of groundballs as well. That’s tremendous potential just waiting for some better luck.

Agree

I have more confidence in him than Fuentes.

that's not saying a whole lot

but yea so do I

Angel comeback on the way?
it's always nice to stay positive
I'm glad I didn't go to this game

would have messed up my Fan ERA

Fan ERA is about as accurate as my PHIL player ratings stat I invented a couple years ago
Helpful for calculating whether or not taking certain guests

will jinx the team or not.

Weird!

’Twas dark here!

ughh

we r facing jeff, not jered, lets get some dang runs

Home come a guy making like millions of dollars a year can't even take 2 steps

towards 1B and force a throw

McAnulty's average is up to 378
yeahhh a baserunner
so not a strike
wow that call made even Matsui shrug in disbelief
f there is one team in baseball that we can score 5 runs off of in 2 innings

it is the Dodgers.

Calling the Matsui walk off tonight – right here right now.

the only thing Godzilla kills is rallys lately.
obviously lizards hate monkey
Bell seems to be able to hit that outside corner with a 92-93 fastball almost at will

seems like he gets in trouble with his off speed stuff or when he can’t afford to aim for the corner.

there must be only 4 or 5 of us left here on HH

Kinda like the old days. Is it time for a punk rock reference?

Some have decided to watch the game sans message board
some went to bed

and i do not blame them… but those watching the game are actually getting a deeper sleep.

I'm just waiting for the replay of tonights Burn Notice
ha

2005… the good old days…

should I stay or should I go now?
when they are calling that 2-0 pitch a strike

why do you try to throw anything else, that’s not a hittable pitch

totally
so then of course we setup inside
Rally Bozo!
Reggie helping his UZR
like

inflating a tricycle tire with a diesel truckstop air hose

Nice job Reggie
nice play Reggie
Broadcast will be from the Diamond Club tomorrow

will anyone notice?

I may try to stop in

but will get tossed out for not having a DC ticket

and the pain only gets worse...

this one is going to last at least another half hour, easily.

a good throw gets him

didn’t need a GREAT throw

so this ump is giving like 5 inches off the outside corner

and we are trying to throw inside fastballs?

he's giving 5 inches on the inside, too
he can $300 a turn in Vegas

doing that

if he gets a boob job

this bullpen is so bad

soooooo bad

The Tecate is running out, this game is so long

and painful.

NOW Manny hustles
Well goodnight everyone
Torii had no chance of getting the guy at 3rd and lets Loney take 2nd
I feel like my life is slipping away

and it’s not even the bottom of the frame

Whatever, they can run up the score

but still only counts as one win. 1 win will not outweigh their other 5 losses

oh sweet mercy

3 outs

even Belisario & Broxton can't blow a lead this big
Let's hope the Rockies series is more like the past two nights, instead of tonight.

So if the Angels moved to Pittsburg
can they also face AA teams 6 times a year?

the AL West is much more benefit
agree

I think

ugh, Brandon....
Mathis Willits Wood..............................

ugh……….

Sad part is I think Willits has had better ABs tonight than Wood
so to be clear...

that should eliminate any “Wood has arrived” fanposts scheduled for the next few days yes ?

even when Wood gets hits

they almost alway seem to be little bloops and flairs, or seeing eye singles. The guy just doesn’t hit the ball hard

"Wood has arrived at Salt Lake" sounds okay to me
haha well said

i hadnt thought of that angle yet

ok, here goes the bottom of the 9th...

Finally!!!

I was so looking forward to this game, and now I am just looking forward to its end
Washington Cocaine Cakewalkers of Arlington

win 11 straight over AA teams and we are finishing up the toughest part of our schedule now. Kinda surprised Vlad and the girls are not a lot further ahead than 4.5 games.

that's the 5th double.
nice, Frandyman!
Is WiHaloFan still here?

I have to yell at him for posting the photoshop contest thread today, leaving it up just long enough for me to create and then upload my amazing creation, and then deleting the thread out from underneath of me.

:(

if he's here, he's a gamer

It’s like 1am where he is

Pfft

I stay up to 1am WITHOUT reason all the time.

this game has been exhausting

I don’t blame him

Victor's sarcasm awesome
that was Frandsen's 9th Double in 80 AB

his OBP is over .400 now

Sherrill is ripe
We can get this close guys

Let’s do this!

You know what

why don’t we just win this one

Torre is the slowest manager ever
Torre

you freaking drama queen

you can hear the groan in Vin's voice

He wants to go home

And here comes Broxton
big country in the house
fields of fire!
One more double please

1 out of 6 and you’d think they are winning game 7 of the WS. Sit down you stupid Doyer fans.

Dodger fans are muscleheaded retards

their entire personal identity is tied up in the accomplishments of their sports franchises, as they’re all useless and have no accomplishments to call their own…therefore each and every win they achieve is the closest to a reflection they have of personal achievement.

I say let them have it from time to time, lest they round up their gangmember friends and start a riot.

yup bobby...

you’re slow

What!?!?!?

Bobby was safe!

even if he was

his run doesn’t mean anything, it’s just more stupid baseball, and it all starts at the top

Blake thinks he's a gymnist - 2nd time he's rolled over like that.

TY very much Mike Soth

taking baserunning lessons from the Dohhgers
NOW...

get out of our stadium and don’t cause any riots on your way home.

only good thing is I guessed 5 doubles.
