More properly, it is Mr. Pujols, meet Mr. Gehrig.

That was my first reaction; then I realized what he meant. 

I drank a lot tonight so my mind is a little slow... er than usual.

Did any of you guys shit yourself when he pimped the home-run then saw Robert jump at the wall looking like he had a beat on it?

Yes. 

But I usually shit myself right around this time every night so who knows if there is a correlation. 

[Tank]

This Walsh kid is pretty good.

@Angel Oracle hi buddy. Start any new threads lately?

Nope.   I meant it exactly as I said it.

@Lou you may want to take the day off tomorrow.  There’s plenty of work to do in this thread.

Oakland had the same kind of opening series against Houston that the Angels have usually had.

Yes. I was a little concerned judging from the the CF's reaction that he might have a play on it.

Haven't felt so much intensity watching baseball in years. Subscribing to MLB Extra Innings really is paying off! Getting a chance to see all games so far makes the season so much more interesting. The way it used to be in my past, listening to radio broadcasts of every game.

It's a long season, but couldn't ask for a better start. The defensive meltdown was a weird fluke. And Trout hasn't even shown power yet.

what a fucking badass

Albert, please follow Elgin Baylor’s example in 1971-72 Lakers season.

He knew when it was time to step aside for Jim McMillian.

Nah, not tonight, dumped that one from last night five minutes after posting it.   A case of the stupids hit me.

I wonder how high our overall IF ranking would be. They must be one of the best defensive IF, anyway...

Pujols trying to get his name back into the starting lineup

This is one of those games you really wish we could have 40k+ at the big A.

Damn, Walsh almost took off Ohtani's head with his helmet when he threw it down.  Bounced up and just barely swiped Ohtani in the face.  This would have really happened last year or the last 5 years.

[Stradling]

This team has some attitude.  Some energy.  Dare I say some balls.

So I missed this, had to shower. But aside from the big hit and win (nice), its good to see ohtani jogging out there and smiling. Thats a good sign
