I love these "classic" Brewer uniforms.

Terry's teeth makes my mouth hurt

I really hope a new AW member signs up with the name "Terry's Teeth".

Hard to take a pitcher named Woodruff seriously... I mean Woodruff is the name of a street in Long Beach.

He should have changed it to Wardlow.

AEDub! AEDub! AEDub!

Time to ditch the running game.  It clearly doesn't work.

I can't wait for the Angels new pitching prospect Johnny St. College Blvd to take the mound. Now that's a pitchers name!

At least there are 2 of us who get modern wrestling references on here, lol

Looking at Dillon Peters, I can't help but think of the song by the Five Man Electrical Band...

La Stella's first swing of ST is fouled off his front leg.

The baseball gods really hate us. Thankfully he didn't break anything this time.

Finally, I get to hear Terry say that the Angels have something brewing.

The hitters have emerged from their slumber. Yay!

Only 1 ball has left the infield this inning thus far

Jordyn Adams looks younger than 20. Overmatched at the plate today in his 2 K’s. Swinging outside the zone  

It will be interesting to see how he settles in with the 66ers. Still really young to be at A+ ball at 20.

 

Seriously. Both he and Jackson look like they're 16 years old.

Adams' build is not one for a 16 year-old, already pretty strong.  On the other hand, Jackson's slender build belied his Pioneer League record 23 HRs in 2019.

Old f*ck.  If you were under 50 you’d say Tesla.

Hey, I'M over 50, and Tesla was one of my favorite bands in the 80s.

Of course, "Signs" was on their Five Man Acoustical Jam album, a play on the name of the band that originally recorded the song.

[Mark68]

Stupid way for the game to end, though: double, K, walk, walk, walk.

[rafibomb]

According to the broadcast, David Fletcher will see alot of time in the outfield this year
