Another reason to be cheerful! Ohtani is hitting and pitching today. Always fun to watch. 

[Revad]

I agree.

GO ANGELS!!!!

Go Shohei Ohtani!!!!

Climbing toward mediocrity -- and it's oh-sooo-close right now!!!

Keep winning, Angels, and you'll move into the contender class.

The picture looks like he was cornered by Dodger fans in Yorba Linda. 

[Taylor]

If I'm doing the math correctly, Ohtani should be starting again next week at home on June 17, which is "Reopening Day." I just snagged 300-level seats for $10.50 with the special deal they're doing.

Why did you buy 300 seats?

Why do you think they gave him a deal?

[jsnpritchett]

I see Sutton is doing tonight's game.  I missed Wednesday's game.  Did Vasgersian announce it?  If not, does anyone remember the last time he actually appeared?

I’m just going to say it.  Series like these.  Against dog shit teams (in this case - literally the worst in baseball) when the Halo’s are hot and can sort of change the narrative on their season (getting back to .500 or better)  these are the series where the most powerful Angels baseball happens.  You guys all know what that means.  
 

so we’ll see if something good is actually going on.

I got my boba smoothie and Im sitting down on the sofa, ready for an Ohtani start!

Edit: I'm marinating some teriyaki chicken too... shit this is all happening subconsciously!

I've been resisting the urge to use the words "slump" and "buster" all day.

l don't get hiring Vasgersian to do play by play, he's hardly ever here.

Arizona's pitcher is 1-74 for a BA of .014. 

But then again, the whole team is bad.

That's why there is a hyphen between 300 and level, to indicate a compound adjective.

Section 308. So in the OF but definitely not corner.

let me finish the smoothie first.

I need the alcohol for the later innings.

I do have a 'Dragons Milk' chilling in the fridge though.
