Don't roll (bend?) over for Verlander yet again!!!

154 DOWN, 8 TO EXIT INTERVIEWS!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Woo Hoo!! Potential ELIMINATION DAY for the Diputrids!! Oakland's "magic number" vis-a-vis Seattle is 1.

[eligrba4ever]

From those ads I hear on the radio broadcast, Cam is beginning to move into his grandparents' tile business. Nice to see he's planning ahead.

[eligrba4ever]

Hope Barria makes it through six. Eight straight starts for the Angels 5 innings or less. Mostly less.

Seriously uncalled for ... and not funny 

Oh, I dunno. He can walk and chew gum, I think. Some innings it might not seem like it, but I think he can.

[eligrba4ever]

Dang! Hope JMF didn't break anything. I was hoping he'd pull a Belt.

[eligrba4ever]

Oughtta be more at stake to start a beanball war. Then again, maybe it was just two accidents.

[eligrba4ever]

Kole is now 22 for 39 lifetime against Verlander. That's 22 strikeouts in 39 at-bats.

[Blarg]

This is the Official Eligrba thread. 

[WeatherWonk]

An Angel pitcher makes it through five! But that's probably all.

Barria looks legit. 

[Blarg]

Barria got bailed out by bad baserunning by the Astros. Gee, looks like other teams make running mistakes as well.

Haven't seen Eligrba yet tonight. You missed the 4ever part. 

[Blarg]

That goes unsaid. 

[eligrba4ever]

Barria got through 5 with minimal damage, but he's near 100 pitches now, so he's probably done.

They've been cautious with his workload all season. He'll mean something in the future when it may matter more.

just terrible offense

That was a pitchout. Good call by Sosh.

Yeah, Verlander has nothing to do with this. 

[WeatherWonk]

Last time I saw this Presley guy pitch, he was Facking lights out. Wicked slider

[WeatherWonk]

Well, the two bleeder hits means that trout will get one more at bat in the game.

[gurn67]

With runners in scoring position this season, Arcia is now batting .333 and slugging .704.

[Angelsfirst]

Mikey!

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Trout goes deep AGAIN. 4-1 Angels
