Torture Part II
Anyone know a good shrink?
Jumping into a cold pool?
Over/Under 1 Angel run during this thread
Time for some haiku

Old School Angels team
No hitting and Arson Squad
Harry Dalton lives!

Oh those were the days

I remember one game when they put in Dave Chalk to bat CLEAN UP. The guy never hit more than 5 homeruns a season

And yet he was one of our best players at the time.

Gotta keep remembering those days to get by these!

My MLB.tv isn't working.

Pretty sure that’s a good thing right about now. Angels, prove me wrong. Pretty please?!?

We still have hope...

Texas could continue losing until we finally figure out how to win.

there is no hope here, sir.
Are we in Hades?
No. Satan doesn't show Angel games down there.

Even he isn’t that mean.

oh I forget who in the game thread about a week ago recommended Dino's

to me in Westminster. But I ordered 3 pizza’s from there for when I family came over, and everyone loved them. Thanks!

Raining

game over

Angels are all praying that's true

they are playing like my students on the last day of school

the hope for this game is it ends early due to rain
Mike's in the dugout

doing a rain dance.

This one's gonna get called for rain.

Enough innings to end it.

Mercy killing?

yes, please rain out this ugly fucker of a game
wow and now this abomination is going to be extended
RAIN RAIN RAIN
This is like when your dentist gets an important phone call

in the middle of your root canal operation.

just call the F'n game.
Surf's only knee high

Still better than this game. Buh-bye.

My BF says (and I concur)

“I wish I were faced with that decision.”

We miss the beach. :( Have fun!

angels weekly host is missing a portion of her brain, it seems.
she's easy on the eyes, but the voiceover work is incredibly poor.
Rojas says

they’ve taken the tarp off already

At least Soth was looking pretty freaking pissed in the dugout during santana's meltdown

Hopefully he puts some damn FIRE in this team!

The Angels Weekly theme

is the same as the Formula 1 race coverage theme

if it makes anyone at all feel better, cleveland is up 9 to 1 on boston.

little consolation, but i do enjoy boston losing to anyone.

Wish we were beating Boston 9-1 :(
I wish we were beating Long beach LL 9-1

or 1-0 or anyone for that matter.

Dammit Nap

Hold onto the ball

What's with Napoli today?

He can’t catch a ball to save his life.

Why?

Couldn’t they have just called the game . . . nooo, they have to torture us some more.

Watch

we’ll score 6 runs and it’ll start raining again and they’ll call it

I'm feelin' a come back. I predict we will on;ly lose this game by 4 runs.
Your Boy better Kohntain the score as is then.
wow.

your next prediction, sir?

Kohn's warming up! AWESOME.
Bourjos is a sniffer
Bourjos with another hit
Infield Hit!

Bourjos is amazing

1st major league multi-hit game
Bourjos is a beacon of light

amidst a background of shit

Hatcher hasn't screwed him up yet....

And I hope he doesn’t get the chance to.

Bourjos Career Hit No.2

Awesome. As soon as I saw it was a slow roller, I knew he was getting on.

Dang

Close Aybar

Can we call up Trout yet lol.
Good job Aybar
just down 7 now

here we go we got them where we want them now

Izzy does his job the deficit is cut to 5.
Either you have ESP or MLBTV is a little slow.

Peter Bourjos first MLB run scored.

Nah mate it's energy. There's a light airiness to it right now.
Oh no, the air just got heavy again.
Nope, someone just farted
Indeed he does
Cinco mas por favor
Nice to see some life in the guys, at least
Comeback?

God, I hope so . . . at least the game has become a bit more interesting.

Bourjos just scored his 1st MLB run
The Chosen One.
I'll be happier if he gets his first MLB game winning hit tonight
Grand Salami Oppo Taco Style
Hopefully one of many driven in by KMO to come.
We are lucky that the O's bullpen is horrendous
Guess what guys, 2 more runs and this becomes an interesting ball game again.
Four More . . .
Fo Mo Yo
Geez Torii

take a strike you could turn on then half swing at a garbage curve

Hit a homer damnit
Hell

Lets score 10 runs in this inning

Ha!

Works for me . . .

Now I want a homer . . .

Let’s go Kendrick!! :)

Howie Doubles NAo !!
Dang Torii, too close
Shitty shitty shitty
Ugh!!!!
Rivera never comes up clutch
Thank You Baltimore . . .
Man the O's blow
Tree Mo Runz Yo
Wow, Bobby that was awful, please get a good secondary lead every pitch, even at 3B.
Yup

He got very lucky. Wieters throws as bad as our catchers do

More More More

How do you like it
How do you like it

Walk by Rivera . . .

Blast by Napoli.

Good morning everybody from Bangkok, Thailand

This is revolting.

Was once 9-1
well, that makes it more palatable
so pop-up to Lugo or weak groundout for Johnny?
holy hell he walked!
Naposmash would be nice
Can I haz a Powa Nap Nao!!
11th batter of the inning
Ok

I’ll take that Nap. Don’t let Mathis bat

SaLAMI TYME!!!!
A hailstone knocking-out Mathis would be nice right now

Let Haren get a chance to PH

GO AHEAD RUN AT THE PLATE . . .
Calypso in to make some noise
Now would be a good time for your 1st Angels homer

Hot Dog

Wild Pitch Please
WTF?

those are not strikes

Dammit. Your the Pinch freakin hitter

not Pinch looker

Shit

I really thought we’d score 10 runs in the inning

Damn :(
That was the best we could pull off our bench?
His Countryman

Would have given Godzilla a rice COOKIE :)

Tell me how that was FING better than Mathis get off his ass

man …u guys are tough

wtf, why not use Haren???
dammit callaspo

Bourjos was going to hit a inside the park GS too

It's those sort of AB's that keep the Angels from being a really good team

Did we make it interesting again? Yeah. But when you have the chance to make it it a nail biter, or even take the lead, you have to succeed, at least 40% of the time. We succeed, maybe 20% of the time.

You know what I love? When people make up stats on the fly.
43% of all stats are made up.
Kohn in to ruin all that good work we just did.
or preserve it.
Nice play Callapso
hey at least we're down 3

losing to the last place team in all of baseball is worse if you lose 9-1.

… holy crap, we were losing to the worst team in baseball 9-1.

Chaka Kohn Chaka Kohn
Listening to weak chants of

“Let’s go Weiter” made me laugh

Weiter, that’s a funny name.

Has Kohn had a MLB strikeout yet?
A couple I think
I think that was his 3rd
I guess I haven't paid close attention
i think his first one was david ortiz

which was awesome

That was funky
Howie displaying mad skillage???
soomething "age" anyway
He's a future batting champion, not a future gold glover
Very true . . .
with that mad .272 BA I'd say it is inevitable he will win the title this season...
Not this year . . .

Next year when the Angels become the best team in the league after signing Crawford and Lee.

2011 Champs! :)

Pssh, not even.

At least not with Bourjos hitting .333, Howie doesn’t have a chance at it.. =P

It is Julio Lugo, throw strikes.
Sh!t, it's Shields . . .
Someone tell Shields to sit down

his presence is not required

Let's go Pete!

Get us started!

3 run HR?

(Oh wait…)

Good inning for Kohn, needn't dwell on last night.

Angels get another good shot at taking this game.

Bourjos's 1st major league strikeout
k3yerout Bourjos...
Stop Bunting!
Okay . . .

Stop with the bunting already.

Ok, so if the pitch is at your shoulders...don't bunt at it...
Jeebus

everyone popping up freakin bunts today

Why do we keep popping up bunts, 2nd this inning, 3rd this game, awful
FAIL

Awful at bat

k3yerout Eybar

PATHETIC!

Looks like that 7th inning was it
Little bit of Vladdy coming through there.

Don’t swing, or even come close to going around on balls in the dirt.

How come Gazoo didn't try to bunt at a high pitch?

Everybody else did!

He already did that earlier

That explains it…sort of, I guess

Nice inning guys
Fucking Angels wasting golden opportunities.....

It’s infuriating.

This team is just fucking with us again

get our hopes up and then dash them

Scot Shields in.
well BOTG Santana thats two outings that sucked

wish we would have traded him not Joe Saundo

Really?

Are you serious?

Because Saunders never sucked?
I don't know about that . . .
Dead Serious Santana is Trash
He's better than Saunders
Please Explain especially with stats

Joe has better winning percentage and lower career ERA…I think there comparable but Joe has the advantage being a lefty

What the hell does winning percentage have to do with their talent?

You sound like the D-Back GM

Before Santana injury I would agree, However after

he has lost his stuff and he is no more special than Joe…Joe just plain better

And he's still better than Saunders
He's had two bad starts in a row

However, he has still been pretty good this year. When on, he can be un-hittable.

agree...he "can" be.. so can anyone

its just that he has lost a lot of his Zing….

Saunders has never looked close to being as good as

Ervin

Fuck, it's Shields.

PLEASE DON’T GIVE UP ANY RUNS.

You shot your Fbomb wad on 8/4 because Shields came in...?

Wow!

He drops them all the time

I’m surprised Rev hasn’t said anything about it yet

He's had two bad starts in a row

However, he has still been pretty good this year. When on, he can be un-hittable.

K3yerout Luke
Nice Job by the bullpen tonight
No worries guys, Texas is already losing.

We got this division.

Got to pull of a win tonight though . . .
I am still not giving up.

I gave up on our season, but they really do need some confidence boosters. A solid comback like this would really help.

a one-two-three inning for Shields

that’s got to be the first time this season

I tap A brew...nice double!
ZOMG a leadoff double

too bad toriiable cant drive him in

Torii swinging for the 3 run HR with only one guy on base...attaboy Hula
Come on Hula, be the Oriole Rula
Should be ball four

Torii shouldn’t have swung at a few of those.

Nevermind

Glad he swung at those :)

Toriific!!!!!!!!!!!
2 more to tie

3 more to take the lead

Tying run to the plate!
Let's go...2 more doubles please...

NIce

2 Run Shot Please.
back to bck doubles wtf

ashame howards will strikeout

Shift-A...Howie missed that by 2 feet
Torii you are a moron!!!!!!!
WHAT THE HELL TORII
Torii... why, Torii why?
okay, this game has now become officially interesting!
Torii disagrees
wow really Torii wtf man

what a dumbass

WTF?????!!!!!
jeebus Torii what the hell are you doing?
Fuck . . . COME ON TORII

You have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.

ARE YOU SHITTING ME TORII????????

thrown out stealing 3b down 2 runs in the 9th??? HELLOOOOOOO?

wow, really?

and howard k’s. right?

Nope. Pops out.
THAT RIGHT THERE WAS POSSIBLY THE WORST PLAY IN BASEBALL HISTORY.
YOU ARE ALREADY IN FUCKING SCORING POSITION, WHY ARE YOU STEALING THIRD???
My favorite kind of rally killer

JESUS COME ON, DON’t STEAL IN THESE SITUATIONS

Toriiable
I CANNOT BELIEVE WHAT I JUST WITNESSED. WHAT THE HELL WAS HE DOING? HIS RUN MEANS NOTHING!
stay alive, Juan
That was not even the first or second time he has done that this season...WTF Torii?

You owe your teammates an apology…kangaroo court and all that!

Sciosia is PISSED

and rightfully so….why does Tori think he can run still

I love Torii, but that was really f'ing stupid.
Damn you Torii
Should be a ONE RUN GAME TORII.
And that would have made it a 1 run game
How was that not a freakin double

slow ass Rivers

Should be a one run game with 1 out

But Torii is an idiot

Tie this game up Naps!!!
"Torii doesn't often do things like that,"

say the MASN announcers. Have they watched Torii????

That was probably the 3rd time he has been thrown out stealing 3b in similar situation this season…and that does not count the ridiculous attempts of 2b…

Hey Naps...bail Torii out wouldya please?
The only explanation I can think of is that Torii must think it was a one run game.

Which really doesn’t explain away his stupidity.

math is hard
LAA 8, BAL 9

if Torri wasn’t a fucking moron

Around 15 mill a season just doesn't buy what it used to.
try 19 or 20 million
Let's go, Napoli. Keep us in it
Just Another Halo Failure
LAA 8, BAL 9

2 outs. >:(

oh well back to Starcraft 2
OMG They had so many chances..
We are now under .500 for the first time in a while
...man I wanna kick Tori

if I thought that would do any good

I just changed my BOTG to Torii for STUPIDITY!
Torii really pushing the envelope on the free pass he was given when he handed CF over to Bourjos
It's all ok, we wouldn't have won anyway...

OH WAIT, THE MOMENTUM MIGHT JUST HAVE CARRIED US THROUGH, INSTEAD OF HAVING 2 OUT PRESSURE

Golden opportunites guys

We waste them and that;s the difference between Texas and Anaheim this year. You’d think, being a veteran led team, we’d know better. But we’ve shown that our vets are nothing but aged ball players attempting to sustain former glory. They don’t play hard, they don’t play smart, they don’t play clutch.

Toriiable leads with his mouth .

All talk .His act is getting old already.

At least TEXASS is melting

2-0 seattle

we could have been possibly only 6 back if we actually would have beat the worst team in baseball

Remember a couple innings earlier, Torii should have gotten picked off first base.

This guy really is a clueless douche.

uhhh really?

your a clueless douche

No, no, no....

YOU are.

haha this is like when we were 12

and had no better comebacks

…but really you are….your comment is useless

Hopefully we can trade toriiable at the deadline next season.
Torii isn't being traded
WTH you saying he is the best hitter we have on the team

Now I know that’s not saying much but seriously think before you speak

Well Kendry is our best hitter

When his leg is in its correct position

common thats obvious and you know what I meant

but your right

Our Best hitter is on the DL.
You're dumb.
haha here we go again

no your dumb
