Sixth-worst coming into this game. 

Wow, better than I expected. Granted, most of the starters have been pretty good at limiting the free passes(minus Ohtani). This pen is a disaster though with the amount of walks they serve up

I don't think I've ever seen Jeff say a negative thing about the Angels. Like we've been one of the worst orgs in baseball for the past decade and Jeff literally turns a blind eye.

Then you don’t know who Jeff is that he was responding to.  It is AO.  He says plenty of negative stuff about the Angels.

Poor Trout man. This team is garbage

This is a long ass game 

Almost 9:00 and only in the bottom of the 4th? I feel like I’m watching the Yankees on ESPN.

Shohei gets above .170!!!

Pretty sure Trout just told Upton that he fucking sucks. 

Wow, I think you’re right. Upton looks mad and defensive and Trout is just all, I’m Mike Trout LOL let’s go!

Angels already with more runs this game than they scored in the entire series against Texas. Of course it happens as the pitching has given up almost as many ER as the pitchers did in the entire Rangers series. You have to love it

Good to see Shohei not bailing out.

Not sure why, but he looked way more comfortable in his last AB, than the previous 2.  Much better swing

Woah, the Angels are back in the game. 

Great job! 

A good come from behind victory would be just what the team needs to turn around their clusterfuck of a shortseason thus far. 

[eligrba4ever]

Woo Hoo!!! Managed to get within 2 runs!! Until the A's bat again?

Fire Dan O'Brien Sr.!

Almost 2.5 hours in and we’re not halfway through the game

I like how they’ve been having these suicide commercials during Angel games.  Talk about targeted advertising!

What I love about it is that they had some high school kids make it. Imagine walking into that class.

Keep pitching to Chapman and it won’t be 2 runs for long.

5 more innings of Angel relievers to pitch in this game.  This game might not end until early Tuesday.

Upton looked a little peeved. Adell looked like he saw a ghost.

That's two up the middle for Adel. Looks like he bounced back after yesterday's gaff. 

[GrittyVeterans]

Why was Trout moved out of the 2 hole?

[Lhalo]

Anybody else have a feeling the A’s are about to unleash an assload of runs on this BP?
