Somebody other than Valbuena has a hit.

It looks like the Nats are playing a AAA team and could care less about trying.  Scioscia sitting Cron last night might have been a terrible idea.

I think that may be a mistake for them, then.

Kole BOMB!!

Angels 3-2

No-Doubter..second deck

[Angelsfan1984]

That boy has some big calhounies. What a shot.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Kole Big fly Angels lead.

[tdawg87]

Season not over!

[eligrba4ever]

Angels 130 homers. Only Boston has fewer. Sounds weird saying that about Boston.

[Angelsfan1984]

Does Murphy just play behind the pitcher...I swear he's there on every deflected ball.

The Red Baron!

Awesome, but 1 run leads scare me more than anything on this team.

With Nolasco on the mound nearing 100 pitches?

What could go wrong?

[krAbs]

Hu. Nolasco comes back out? Interesting choice. Resting the pen even though we have two off days this week? I imagine we are trying to make a hard run for the rest of the year. Friday we will walk in with a very fresh pen, and a rotation anchored down with Heaney, Skaggs, and Bridwell.

[Angel Oracle]

WTF are you Fing doing Sosh??

Petit can pitch 2 innings today.

Get NoStuffCo out of there, STAT!!!!

[Homebrewer]

Trout headfirst slide torn ligament bobblehead night?

What genius thought that one up?

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Rather Petit pitches instead of Chavez, especially in a close game.

[eligrba4ever]

Ouch. Glasses may have saved Taylor some pain off that foul ball.

I believe Scioscia is trying to qualify him for a 'W'

He already does.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Nolasco has pitched well since the first. He may be hurt, oh no.

[eligrba4ever]

112 pitches in and a 2-2 count, Ricky is done. Chavez in.

Only 2 Nats hits since that first-inning bomb.

Did Ricky signal he might have tweaked something?

[Homebrewer]

Nolasco hurt?

OMG ....NO!

season over

[Season Over]

If the Angels win a game in which Nolasco and Chavez both pitch, I'll be absolutely floored.

[eligrba4ever]

Out of Nolasco going well and into the Chavez conundrum.

Nolasco feels a twinge.

I thought it would never happen.
