Is that kind of like a Donkey Punch? Because I had one of those once and did NOT enjoy it. 

I bet Will Smith lets Jada donkey punch him

As if he has a choice

Implying they're even intimate. 

[desiderata]

He's probably safe without the extra air drag. 

[Angelsjunky]

Everything Marsh does is fun, even exciting. Stats aside, he might be my favorite Angel. He's been edging up there for awhile.

My favorite thing about him is that he does everything at an average or better level, with the potential to be above average in every facet of the game.

He also seems to be teetering on the edge of everything clicking. He usually hits the ball well, takes walks, and hasn't looked nearly as swing-and-miss as he did in spring training.

l hope Lorenzen can pitch like this against Houston and Seattle

[AngelsLakersFan]

That was right down the middle for ball two

[Angelsjunky]

And no, I didn't just curse him. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

This ump really is horrendous

[bloodbrother]

Just an atrocious game by this ump...

[Angelsjunky]

I like the fact that Lorenzen seems to pitch - to work the count and hitter. His stuff is solid, even good, but not crazy good. But he seems to have good pitching IQ.

This might be one of the worst ump'd games I've seen in a long while, and that is saying a lot. This guy really needs to be held accountable for this crap. 

[bloodbrother]

Surprised that out of all their starters, it's the RP turned SP that Joe is letting get the most run from a pitch count standpoint

I believe tdawg also has experience with edging, but its with respect to Mike Trout in his bunk.

[UndertheHalo]

At least Rendon is still doing shit with the glove.  

[Jason]

Outstanding game by Lorenzen tonight

Poor tdawg - he's largely been bunkless these last couple years.

[PattyD22]

What a play by Mayfield.  Awesome.

Oh wait, that was Rendon.  He don’t care

Wow

Who would have guessed that Lorenzen would be the first to go over 80 pitches and make it through six innings?

[Erstad Grit]

I was super skeptical about adding an average relief pitcher to the rotation. I know it's one start but well done Perry.
