Winning Record?

[stormngt]

Is the franchise record over 500 now? I know we were four games short and have won four in a row. Just wondering if someone knew.

No, if the Angels win tonight, they'll be at .500. They're 4271-4272.

First time since either 1960 or 61. That's a long time.

The first Angel game was April 11.1961 - a 7 to 2 win over Baltimore.  Eli Grba got the win. Ted Kluszewski got two HR's.

Their record gets better with every name change.  Can't wait until the next one.

I think it's the first time at .500 since 1961 when the Halos were 1-1.......

 

it's taken about 10 years of competitive teams to get to .500 and the last three years sort of delayed the Halos getting there.

That quite an accomplishment from where we were starting the year 2000.

Time to stay over .500

[ELEVEN]

That only took 53 years and 3 months...

Fire him!

Sosh has managed 30% of the Angels wins.

[Stradling]

Sosh has managed 30% of the Angels wins.

In about 20-25% of games played.

Baseball managers. Getting too much credit and blame since 1839.

Selig hasn't come up with a plan to monetize the 175th Anniversary of this yet?
