Ump has got mad hops, yo. 

[Waybackman]

It’s only a one run game. Why Bedrosian?I 

[daygloman]

Allright boys.... Enough of this bullshit,... Let's regroup, and lets get these motherfuckers!!!

Go Halos!

This will make Calhoun's GW RBI that much sweeter.

Not on Sosh. The game was lost when Barria couldn't go the full 9 innings. We've literally gotten to the point where if our pitcher doesn't throw 9 innings and give up 1 or 0 runs or if our offense scores fewer than 7 runs it's like an 80% chance at a loss. 

Did I miss something? Did Barria take himself out of the game?

The bullpen was actually pitching pretty well in April, when the SP were averaging like 4 1/3 IP per start. Now that the SP is doing well, the bullpen has become garbage.

We've pissed too many games wmaway this year already . We might be real sorry come September 

Then so will the AStros since they have pissed away more.

I tentatively agree.

Oh definitely. The Angels can’t afford to keep giving away these games they should’ve won. Eppler better do something fast.

[UndertheHalo]

Upton has been great in LF tonight.

Because Alvarez couldn’t do his job.  

[moccasin]

The rotation has strung together 15 straight starts giving up 3 runs or less. Yet, they only have 6 winning decisions.

The good part, is that the relievers have 4 wins in that span. We have the top of the order coming up, let's hope for for another one.

[BackUpTheTruck]

I would have had Anderson warming up, things were getting out of hand. 9th inning will be fresh.

[bloodbrother]

If they're gonna come back it's gotta be in the 8th. Trout/Ohtani/Upton due up.

[nando714]

Top of the line up 

time to bail out the fat man #14

All on the manager 

barria is cruising at 96 pitches . Astros didn’t make solid contact most of the night . But but but 100 pitches . 

Suck my ass with this 100 pitch bullshit. Our starters pitch every 7 days!!!! They can’t go 110-115???? Especially when they’re crushing !!!!

Welcome to the thread.

Of course.  We have Calhoun potentially laying in wait for the 9th... possibly.

Any hint on which Halo will hit a HR this inning? 

I'll accept "all of them" off the air, thx.

They have lost more games than the Angels when tied or winning going into the 8th.  

[Dick B Back]

Alvarez doesn’t pitch for 5 days for some reason, comes in and blows, get the dehydration notice in the morning.
