Hope the Angels' scoreless streak doesn''t go past 12 innings.

Trying silence on FB with Terry and Gubi on audio. Not quite synched but ...

[Glen]

Shoe about to fall apart.

[Angel Dog and Beer]

We need a good cobbler.

[eligrba4ever]

Fernandez ends the scoreless streak!!! 1-0 Angels!!! GO TROUT!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Every Angels game seems to turn into a bullpen game.

Come on, Shoe, stop this rally.

[eligrba4ever]

Piscotty is the Athletics' feel-good story of the season. Unfortunately, they're feeling even better after that bomb.

A’s fan on Facebook says, “ he was on that like a Hobo on a ham sandwich”

Bullpen game. Maybe we should just embrace this, next year.

[eligrba4ever]

Oh well, Shoe takes a seat. This is beginning to look like last night. Bullpen game by default.

Second up, Jim Johnson. Inning over. 5-1 Athletics.

Maybe we should abandon the concept of starters altogether and just go with 12 long relievers that take turns getting lit up every other game.

16 Angels batters faced, 7 strikeouts for Edwin Jackson.

I see the makings of better than that in the Angel bullpen, really. Our bullpen numbers havent been bad. But we need a proven closer.

The best reason for the Angels to resort to an "intentional" bullpen game is all these recovering starters that can never get through a lineup three times.

Here is an article from May about the Tampa Bay Rays initial decision to employ the intentional bullpen games. It can make a lot of sense.

Fuck Facebook.

[eligrba4ever]

Nice putout and assist double play by Trout that will get lost in the debris of this mess of a game (so far). 

Simba has an E-6 that might have been an E-3.

[eligrba4ever]

Who catches this? Rock paper scissors!!! Runners at the corners.

[eligrba4ever]

A's are running up pinball points on the Angels infielders.

[WeatherWonk]

This is a rout. C-ya.

[eligrba4ever]

Bye, bye, Jim.  Has anybody mentioned you might be at the end of the road?

[Angel Oracle]

This franchise is a joke!

Will it ever get back to the freaking post-season?

Now, does everyone understand that Shoe is a relief pitcher waiting to happen!!!!   Three straight suck starts!!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Every time I refresh the FB screen, I have to reset the mute and kill the caption. It's annoying.

10-1 Oakland. Bloopers also count.

[daygloman]

Hope everyone's having a GREAT day! 

Go Halos!

[eligrba4ever]

The A's big wheel keeps on turning. 11-1. 7 straight 2-out singles.

[daygloman]

LOL! Ohhhhhhhh man! 12-1.

Enjoy.
