Mike Trout was called up.  We are all lucky because of it.

7/7 = Mike Trout Day worldwide.  Everyone should get this day off work.

I'm leaving my porch light on until this becomes a national holiday.

who is that not fat guy?

[Smedley]

It was really this late in the season? I thought we called him up after one month.

[Spirit]

Made his debut on July 8, 2011.

He means when he was originally called up in 2011, not 2012 when he played all but one month.

[Spirit]

Wait ... I'm now reading he was called up on July 8, 2011.  He replaced ...

I remember it was late in the night when he was called up and I immediately picked up tickets in Center for $6.

Best logo/unis/name of all time!!!!

[bloodbrother]

Halos have been pretty damn good when it comes to uniforms throughout their existence(minus the winged A portion that we'll just ignore)

[Chuck]

Thank you, Eddie Bane!

Bizarro stat of that game:

My favorite uniforms by far.  I need to get one.

[bloodbrother]

My favorite unis to. Probably biased since that was my little league uni back in the early 90's. Really wish they had some navy back in their color scheme, but current unis are nice(like the red belt and red cleats for home games look this year!)

 

Big fan of pretty much every Halos uni/logo over their existence. Still have a Nolan Ryan uni that was my dad's, and own a few Halos hats. Current one, all black one, CA Angels hat, lower case a hat.

 

In 2011 they celebrated 50 years of Halos baseball and the halo over the A on the uniforms and the hats were gold rather than silver. Honestly wish they kept that look. Thought they looked really good

Big fan of these uniforms:

Wow, look at those stirrups.

As for Trout. I prefer to celebrate his second coming. When was that? May 2012?

[ten ocho recon scout]

Yeah, my favorite is still the mid 80's. The mid 90's ones were cool too. The current ones are great...still wish they said anaheim though. And im one of the people that supports the name change.
