Gameday Thread: Angels vs. A's (4/8/2018) Ohtani's first home start on the mound

[Jason]

Pena

[Taylor]

Lame.

[CaliAngel]

$#% matt joyce. This $%$ couldn't swing a tennis racket at a basketball for us and all he does when he plays us is #%$ us in the #$%. 

Dude can eat my dingleberries as far as I'm concerned. 

[Angelsjunky]

Pena looks like Ralston Schmidt.

I know this may not be a popular opinion, but I still wonder if Ohtani wouldn't benefit from some seasoning in AAA.

Does not appear to be even the same ball player he was for a month in Arizona during spring training

This guy is off the charts phenom super star it appears ... and myself and a million other fans though he was a total flop just a couple weeks ago

---------------------------

He was trashing Ohtani 2 weeks ago.

The shutout went away, but it was on the bullpen. And the lead is still 5.

Seriously. It’s just the guy announcing the stats to the broadcasters.

[Blarg]

Peñata is getting hit hard.

[bloodbrother]

Pena, your only job is to give the main pen arms some rest. Get the last out dude

[beatlesrule]

Of course Joyce puts a run on the board. Amazing Shohei will still get his win.

If anyone has ever watched baseball they would know spring training basically has 0 accountability for how a pro ballplayer will perform come regular season.

Pujols and Trout own Graveman.

Looking for our first 7-3 start since 1987

Another series sin 

We should all be grateful that Ohtani didn't show up until after Hamilton left. 

[Docwaukee]

Trout is a terrible interview.  you'd think he'd have gotten better by now.  but no.  

[eligrba4ever]

LIGHT THAT BABY UP!

SHO-TIME was unreal for 7 innings!!

The bats provided the offense!!

Now it's off for a sweep through the DFW Metroplex and the Missouri half of KC.
