Yeah, 8 days ago. Also known as approximately how long this game will last.

.821 OPS is pretty solidly above average.  A bit pointless to compare BA and OPS 

[bloodbrother]

Blake Parker remains consistently bad so there's that

[101halo]

Belt is my least favorite player of today. 

[UndertheHalo]

The nightmare continues 

[Bull58]

dear god all mighty....

[eligrba4ever]

And on his 38th pitch of the day, Belt homered.

No hitter alert.

I just said it was pretty good. Because you don't like me you'll ignore what I do right.

I don't like you? Since when?

Oh and notice how you're conveniently not including his OPS of 2018. 

.829

Still good

Nope it is .821.

No it isn't you fucking idiot.

Heh. We're watching Parker Posey.

15 more outs for the no-hitter

We’re Angels fans.  We aren’t allowed to be happy for long.  We must be humbled immediately.  

 

All evidence supports this.

Angels pitching continues to lead MLB in HR allowed. The team right behind them is the 3-18 Reds.

Ohtani just needs to keep his weight back like he did on his 3rd homer. Giancarlo has that super closed off stance to handle outside pitches, but he's super strong so it only works for him. Ohtani has good power, but it's probably going to be hard to deal with major league pitching when you're contorting your body all over the place.

Swept by red hot Boston. Then lose a series to the Giants who came in ice cold. We’re an equal opportunity doormat.

are they still leading the league in BB's allowed too? or did someone pass them?

Just hopped into this thread and forgot today was a day game. I assume I shouldn't even bother turning the game on.

[beatlesrule]

My Penguins just won their series so I'm flying high but I will come crashing back to earth if my Angels get no hit.  I know it's kind of early but come on offense!

we will still make the wild card, the AL only has like 6 teams that are actually trying.

[101halo]

Hey, a runner on base with no outs. That's fun.

It's almost certain the Astros will easily sweep the next series

Honestly, I sort of hate hate Johnny Cueto and stupid wind up and gay predator hair.

They've actually fallen off a bit there lately. HAve since been surpassed by quality teams like the White Sox and Marlins, with Atlanta way out in front leading the way
