Snell may very well throw a no hitter against this line up for the Angels tonight.  Not expecting a lot tonight.

Idiot

[Blarg]

Adell is really showing he is ready for the full time position in right field next season.

[Chuck]

Jo Adell was HUGE there in that moment. 

I think a star is born. I had my doubts last year, but the kid put in the work and improved nearly every aspect of his game. Major kudos!

Adell now 8-19 with 2 BB's and 2 K's in September.

Ahh, that makes more sense... leave it to the broadcast to completely ignore the stolen base.

In their defense they aren’t at the game. 

[Blarg]

The Padres are now asking themselves, who the hell is Herget?

And so are most Angels fans. 

[PattyD22]

Not sure why Maddon would pinch hit Ohtani against a left handed reliever in the 8th up 2, but elected to pinch hit Wong with Fletch on base?

Another head scratcher..

The pitchers position is probably not coming up in the 9th.

This and all the other great mysteries of baseball will be fully fleshed out in Netflix's next great show, "Inside the Mind of a Genius"  

That really wasn't a case of Maddon being Maddon though.

Padres fans said Herget with 7+ ERA, we should lite him up.

[T.G.]

Baseball is a funny game.

There are fans who don’t think we need a SS.  

There are fans who think we don’t need…. Pitching.

As did I

[T.G.]

And it's a beautiful game.

[Blarg]

Lagares tagged himself out. What an idiot.

Wong pitch hit for the pitcher in the 6th with nobody on.

[T.G.]

So, why are announcers still not traveling to away games?

Ok.  I’ve had a beer or two, thanks for the clarification.  It’s much more tangible now.

[Inside Pitch]

I love watching a team actually play defense...   Marsh made that sinking liner look easy.

[Blarg]

It sure beats the keystone cops routines we saw earlier in the year.
