Painful loss, but the Angels will put it aside and play hard tomorrow.

[Puget Sound Angel]

Look at those new bats surrounding Trout. It's a beautiful thing. I think I'm gonna cry.

How are the Rangers so successful only against us?  Are they stealing signs?

They are 17-5 vs KC, Detroit, TB and the Yankees. They are 8-5 vs us. 

Serious question: do you ever post anything that is based on actual facts?

Trout and Pujols have been awful the last two games.

Yes there has never been a contender in history that gave up a walk off HR in a season or lose on a wild pitch.  Your right!

After further review ... yesterday's loss was a total team effort

Skaggs, Middleton and Bedrock shoulder just about all of the blame.  Coupled with Upton dropping a ball and Phillips underestimating the speed of DeShields.  But yea, with a decent start from our starter we blow them away yesterday.

Uptown dropping the ball in the first inning was a big deal. Skaggs came out of the inning throwing 30 pitches or more in the Texas heat.

When @ten ocho recon scout Goes back to basics, he doesn't screw around 

[totdprods]

Tough loss, but going against Hamels was already a tall order. At least the offense played well, the bullpen did an okay job, and the team kept fighting right until the very end.

Had the defense worked out and a couple more hits gone our way, that game could have very well been a 15-6 Angels blowout.

I happens to every6 team on occasion. You should read other teams message boards, 90% hate their managers, complain about every loss and blame them 1 thing or another, that's baseball.
