7-1 Mariners over Houston in the 5th inning.

For some reason Keuchel is still in there.

 

Houston deciding now is the time to have that championship hangover.

Too bad there isn't a way for Seattle & Houston to both lose vs each other, like if both managers fought each other & then the bench managers fought each other & the league hands both teams a loss lol.

Is Ohtani still on the team? Pitching tomorrow I'm guessing?

He had a pinch hit last nite, and scored a tying run.

Except for Young. How long can this keep going on.

Until Calhoun's sore side is healed.

Let's win one for the Enberg!

Better options in AAA.

I expect tons of run support to Heaney

Go Angels !

Did you see the You Tube of MiLB where EYJr. bunted (?) to the first baseman and ran backwards toward home. The defender followed him back to the plate to tag him?

[Angels#1Fan]

Lets Go Halos!

[Jason]

Hopefully Heaney bounces back after his last start

[DEVLBAT]

Nice play!

[eligrba4ever]

So disappointed. By home market rules, I probably should be getting MLB Network's backup game tonight (Angels), but they are showing the main game with Mad Bum.

[Homebrewer]

No Pujols

I'm rooting for Seattle to sweep the Astros in their 2 game series. Seattle has a harder schedule from here on in and they will be easier to catch. We just need to win our games which isn't easy with our bullpen.

Same here - I feel much better about us catching Seattle than Houston. Every Houston loss helps our chances. Angels usually handle Seattle pretty well head-to-head too and we have a lot of games left.

You all need to quit thinking Seattle is going to roll over and play dead. They have talent. 

[Homebrewer]

Gonna be entertaining chasing the Mariners after all the Dipoto hatred around here.

The baseball talking heads, for the most part, agree.

I'll believe it in July after the play the BoSox and Yankees.

[bloodbrother]

Great, Simba taken out of the game. One of the Angels 3 hitters worth a damn

It'd look even better if Cano wasn't a cheat ... and well didn't break his hand.

Now that Paxton pitches, let’s see just how good their other starters are over the next 4 games.

I do wish the Halos would ever one freaking game field a lineup without anyone having below a .690 OPS. 

Let’s see how Seattle does against good hitting teams when Paxton doesn't pitch. 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Texas leads the A's 7-4 in 8th.

Definitely not good. 

[DEVLBAT]

I missed why Simmons is out of the game. What happened?
