I don't see how they are designed that anything else will come of it. They would have to install grill areas to bring something fresh. 

I think they ran out of money. 

I heard a different story from @HaloCory22 on Facebook about the stadium experience and food. 

I'll be there for the first week of August series and check it out.

There's a blonde back there I swear the Rangers are paying just to be back there every game. She's usually not paying attention to the game and talking to the old farts. 

Those are called escorts.

He is probably talking about the Live! Area outside of the stadium. Or he was at the other stadium two years ago.

Jesus, are they giving Gallo's eulogy or what?

[PattyD22]

Angel pitchers have a bad habit of throwing 0-2 pitches right down the middle of the plate.

Really starting to think ohtani won’t last as a pitcher 

here’s to another bullpen game

I agree

This is why Ohtani should not hit the day he pitches... we might have fucked ourselves.

Yep 

[CaliAngel]

Not another 1, 2, 3 inning, but I will take it. Thank you Halo bullpen. 

[Chuck]

The bullpen is getting it done so far! You love to see it. 

[Don]

Watching Shohei play day in and day out is just so much fun right now. It’s honestly comparable to the way I felt about watching Vlad. 

[Inside Pitch]

Tony Watson is one of those guys that doesn't really impress you when he throws but he has always just gotten it done.    He's the anit-Jepsen

Why do you pull a pitcher under the pitch count who has been dominating for the last 4 innings?

Joe is a Seinfeld Fan

Get this man a win!

Love is a feelin' that grows and grows

I know we all let Pujols have it here, completely justified too. 

That said if he's hitting 7th and playing good D at first, I've seen nothing in Walsh' game in RF that would suggest he's any worse than Dexter Fowler there. Hell, he may even be better -- with a way better throwing arm. 

Mang may end up having his best season in 5 years the way he's been squaring up the ball. His out earlier snowconed by Garcia was crushed as well. 

The test will come when/if Adell is ready at some point this year to play RF every day....how do justify Pujols taking AB’s away from either Walsh or an Adell who is ready and needs to play every day....

Adell and Marsh are not going to be ready this year. Marsh will be playing his first season in AAA and Adell needs a full minor league season. We may see one, if not both when the rosters expand in Sept. however. 

[CaliAngel]

Once again Upton lagdoggin it to a ball. I'm so sick of his effort in LF. 

[Jason]

Nice job tonight 

[CaliAngel]

Throw strikes, you get outs. Whoda thunk it? 

Ohtani with the W for the Halos. 

Light that baby up!

[daygloman]

Light up the Halo!

[Chuck]

Great job guys!! 

Leading the league in HR and we get Ohtani the well deserved W. 

[Slegnaac]

Feel Good Win !!!

[Don]

That felt great to see our team play that well as a full squad.

[Inside Pitch]

Good game...

Shohei, the offense, the Mad Genius..  they all had a good night.

Still think the bunt was the best play of the game.

Probably...but you never know when a young guy will force the issue....
