Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Rangers (4/7)

[Corona]

God I hate Arlington.

[Agalloch]

Phew, thought that was fair

[HaloNation]

hamilton would've swung at that

[moccasin]

So now we WANT Scioscia to mess around with the lineup to get inferior players in there?

They hit a combined .100 against Darvish.

I've seen other teams go 100% lefties against him.

That slider is the filthiest breaking ball in baseball.

[Sam Sanchez]

Weaver has gone full count on almost every batter I've seen him face. Terrible

[bloodbrother]

Weav is going 5 tops. 63 pitches with 1 out in the 3rd

Who's ready for Jerome Williams' 2013 debut?

 

Besides the Rangers' hitters.

[moccasin]

No thanks. I'll take my chances with Trumbo. If they need Schuck and Romine to help then they have serious issues.

I'll take them when any other guy is on the opposing mound. Just not with Darvish.

[A Priest walks into Aybar]

Needed that!

[Bombsauce]

Wow! Nice work Weaver. Lets go Angels!

[Agalloch]

Lucky double play!

[Bombsauce]

Needed that!

Haha! Your name is hilarious. Great job!

[Waybackman]

Automatic

[A Priest walks into Aybar]

What a horrible at bat by Cruz, thank goodness.... swinging 2-0 when Weaver is all over the place.

[bloodbrother]

They can't touch his slider

[Jason]

I think their chance came and went

[jshep]

That sound effect on Beltre's throw was not necessary, whoever that was in the ESPN booth.

[Aaronkv]

Nice to see weaver get a nice long rest there.

[bloodbrother]

Yep, they let Darvish get into a groove now.

[Docwaukee]

I think the games are more enjoyable when I just look at the box score and don't actually watch. 

[Aaronkv]

Angels had 2 great chances to have big innings. Yu won't give them another.

[tennischmp]

Weaver right back out there oy

[Bombsauce]

It is nice to see the game broadcast in real HD. Those FSW feeds are so compressed it looks awful.

[moccasin]

12 of his 14K's against the Astros were sliders. But he can't throw them as much as he likes against lefties because it could result in a HBP, like it did against Aybar in the 1st inning. Other teams went out of their way to line up lefties and had success last year.

But we are just too stubborn.

[bloodbrother]

Nice hanger there, Weav
