Trout awards Rasmus second base on that single.

[OregonLAA]

Get Alvarez out of there. Anyone is better in a close game. Anyone!!!!!!!!!!!

[JAHV76]

Kelly Leak reaches second on the error by Trout

[Angel Oracle]

This team, outside of Trout, Calhoun, and Shoe, is a total joke.

Thank you quitter Dipeutered and J. Pierpont Reagins!

[eligrba4ever]

Betances, Miller and Chapman these Angels are not.

[fan_since79]

Salas has arrived. Keep calm, all is well!

 

[eligrba4ever]

Salad Days are here again!

The skies above are clear again.

Let us sing a song of cheer again, 

Salad Days are here again!

Are you guys watching the national broadcast? I love how Flemming was like "as soon as Shoemaker exits, the bullpen blows it, right on cue". Ok, so it wasn't exactly in those words but he basically said it. 

[eligrba4ever]

One thing about listening to the third-party announcers at ESPN is that it gets a different POV in the mix. The three guys in the booth tonight all notice the Angels have not one power pitcher in the pen who can come up with a strikeout.

[fan_since79]

I think we just witnessed a minor pitching miracle.

 

 

[Skankhunt42]

Yea, it's nice not listening to a bunch of Homers do the broadcast. 

 

[eligrba4ever]

That slider Albert took could have taken a long trip.

[Lhalo]

Thank god for Trout. Not sure I could watch this team without him. 

[eligrba4ever]

Trout dies at second. 

[bloodbrother]

Another one of those patented Cron AB's where you're just thinking that he probably could have done better if he swung with his eyes closed. That 2 strike swing was special

Cowart at third would mean fewer runs scored than relative few that the Angels are scoring now.

Cowart at 3rd would also mean fewer runs given up due to the fact that he is actually a 3rd baseman.

Defense wins games also.

I like Marte, but he is NOT a 3rd baseman!

I'm hoping an Escobar trade because Cowart needs to be given a shot.

I know that he is a bonehead, but can Escobar play left? 

[Angel Oracle]

And to think that Cron was the #22 overall pick in the 2011 draft.

Actually, he was the 17th pick.

Salas looks poised to give up a few runs this inning

[eligrba4ever]

Salas is just setting up an attempted rescue by Ramirez this inning.

[OregonLAA]

Why the fuck is Salas still in? Good lord 

[Skankhunt42]

As much as I like the Angels, Altuve is just plain awesome. Love watching him play. 

[Docwaukee]

Is Bedrosian unavailable?
