Fwiw, my wife, daughter, and I just did the wave here at home. 

And now that Wade was picked off in the middle of it, we’ve stopped. I take full responsibility for our actions.

Wade has to lead the league in outs on the base paths per times on base.

does this franchise do more stupid crap than most?  it sure seems like it.

I listened to the locked on angels podcast this afternoon and the hosts firmly believe the halos are tipping their pitches. In fact, they’re convinced that everyone in baseball knows it except the Angels, and that’s why they’ve been sucking so badly lately. 

Ohtani was against the Yankees, but the Yankees are very good at it.

There are decades of data to support your claim.

Baserunning stupidity aside, it seems like the offense is finally playing like they have a fire under their butts.

Isn’t that what Matt Wise is supposed to work with them on?
