Ohtani starts are the baseball equivalent of the Fast & the Furious movies 

I spend the whole game hoping this is the one where Jordana Brewster gets naked?

Lou when Albert homers: "See, I told you."

Eight days later.

"See, I told you."

Damn, Upton already crossed homeplate when Vasgersian called the HR right there. 

Get these announcers back in the stadiums. F you, Manfred. 

Yeah, this is a mess.

At the same time, I have watched 100 games during the pandemic.  ESPN can broadcast an American East college basketball game with 2 guys from their living room, and doing it without missing a beat.   I mean, I look for this, and espn did college basketball all year with guys broadcasting from their pajamas.

This is a Bally's/Angels problem.  That youtube game was a mess for gubi as well.

Come on man this is my dream 

[John Taylor]

Lets score 20 runs so Ohtani can pitch a complete game

[Blarg]

The BBQ joint at Live sucks.

So do the fans at catching foul balls. 

[yk9001]

This is my favorite angels game since Vlad beat the Red Sox in the playoffs.

This is fun.

[John Taylor]

The delay Matt V is on compared to the game is absolutely ridiculous, he is probably still calling the 2nd inning.

[Blarg]

So far the fans are zero for foul balls.

One of my favorite games in any sport ever.

Great point. I watched an NBA game earlier this season and was shocked to learn at halftime that the announcer was calling it from his home. That had never occurred to me. Meanwhile, that game the other day, Gubi sounded like he was underwater. Tonight is ridiculous.

Please, no. Five innings would be good. Maybe six if he keeps them tight.

[Blarg]

Trout doubles!

[Blarg]

And we have a pitching change.

[nando714]

This offense 

[Chuck]

Mike Trout, 3 hits in 3 innings. Two RBI. Welcome back!

2 singles for Trout.

He's rusty. 

Rust gone. 

[Blarg]

They are going to try and Yang the Angels chain of hitters.

He hasn't homered yet. 

Rust remains.
