Need insurance run or 2 badly

9-1-2 coming up for Miami

[Lou]

This is a good time to pick up 8 insurance runs 

[nando714]

Nice play by riddle 

[nando714]

A little ric flair for valbuena 

[Stradling]

That's why baseball is great and stupid at the same time.  A rocket by Albert is an out, a flair by Valbuena scores two.  

[tdawg87]

Something is wrong with Calhoun 

[tdawg87]

I'll take the two runs but my God this offense is putrid.

So, Albert's BABIP in that last inning was .000 while Valbuena has a 1.000 BABIP at the same time. BS!

MLB Tonight (Eric Byrnes)  just ran a clip caught during Friday's MLBN interview with Shoe. But it zoomed in over his shoulder to the silhouette of someone in a room at the Clevelander who appeared to be rehearsing a pole dance, a football cheer routine or something similar. LOL.

Mark gubicza really just did say what an awesome swing by Albert.

[eligrba4ever]

Please don't give anything back, Mr. Alvarez.

[eligrba4ever]

Nice inning for Alvarez.

[budice0]

Mendoza line for this team, itll win..but not often enuf

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Solid start from Ramirez, his ERA now 3.38

[eligrba4ever]

In the Nats' game, Dusty kept his pitch-count leash on Strasburg today. 15Ks through 7 innings. 108 pitches. 0 runs. Strasburg is done.

Maybin doesnt get enough cred.  Clearly not in the future of Angels plans, but the man has game.

[budice0]

Nice out Pujols!

[tdawg87]

Wow Pujols

It's one of the things I love about baseball. There is an element of the game that is just beyond anyones control. No matter how well or how poorly you play you will generally get some opportunities or be forced to get a big out. That bloop was a tough break for Miami, but it's the walks that did the damage. 

[Stradling]

Yea that Maybin sure sucks, right @CALZONE?

Total waste of money

[eligrba4ever]

Didn't Joe Bats begin his hot streak against the Angels a couple of weeks ago? I'm sure happy he got to do some damage to Texas today. 8 homers in May.

He keeps hitting like he has and he'll be in the plans....it's not like we're brimming with OF prospects close to the bigs....

[AngelsLakersFan]

Norris is starting to get some flies in his ointment...

[eligrba4ever]

LIGHT THAT BABY UP!!!

Ramirez is stellar for 7. The pen (mostly) holds the line.

Trout homers early. Some insurance arrives later.

New winning streak has begun.
