^ cant believe that lineup scored 10 runs on us.

[Chimi]

No one needed a day off today?

Iannetta.

[QuinlansMinion]

CJ and Conger confirmed duo?

[Homebrewer]

Conger shocks the world with a couple key hits?

I would love to see that. Make Scioscia think.

[Glen]

Guaranteed win tonight, I'm going to be there.

[WallyWorld]

I can't believe Kendrick didn't break anything last night.  Dude caught a Felix Hernandez fastball with his wrist/forearm.

[Homebrewer]

What is the weather like down there?

We're looking at at least a few inches of snow tonight here in the Seirra. Already snowed much of the day but isn't sticking yet.

[The God of Runs]

We will win!

[markb]

I wonder if the team's new approach to advanced metrics is behind the CJ/Conger pairing.  Hank's pitch framing at +2.13 calls per game last year was one of the best in the league, while Iannetta at -1.09 ranks pretty far down.  With the number of borderline pitches CJ throws that difference can be pretty significant.

[Homebrewer]

Framing?

[Jason]

The Halos will dominate tonight

[Homebrewer]

Padres down 3-2 in the 8th to the dogs. Come on Pads..

[Homebrewer]

Astros up 6-2 in the 9th...over the Skanks

[jsnpritchett]

18 pitch inning--but no runs.  CJ bein' CJ.  Keep it up.

[Halos of Anaheim]

Welp, that was an underwhelming first.

[Bombsauce]

Angels offense seems more impatient than last night. Two groundouts to third...yuck.

[Jason]

Hopefully CJ can get through 5

[Season Over]

Babe Smoak at it again.....

[jsnpritchett]

Wow.  What the heck were the Mariners doing there?

[Bombsauce]

Nice to see Conger make a solid throw. Good inning by CJ.

[markb]

CJ just headbutted Hank in the chest.  I wish i could hear that conversation.

[Ender]

Wow.  What the heck were the Mariners doing there?

 

Had to of been a missed hit and run ... no way Justin Smoak tries to steal 2nd.
