April 23rd, 2016 Also a Cliff Pennington appearance.  

And of course, in his cameo appearance, Pennington hit a home run.  Off King Felix, nonetheless.

Pal, we need a date at least 

I bet @Angel Oracle can figure out the date just by looking at the lineup and box score. And tell you where he was during the game.

Did you have to Google that or did you figure it out with your magic AO powers?

[Blarg]

He can probably tell you what he had for lunch that day.

Just used deduction, my dear Watson.

Joyner debuted in 1986.

Jackson’s last Halos season was 1986.

Looked at Baseball Reference’s 1986 Halos schedule, and pin pointed where Romanick pitched a shutout in a 4-0 win.

Nailed it, your day to go to Vegas!

Loved that team, bummer losing out to the BoSox in the ALCS.

Baby Pedro had the start and we have a Jeff DaVanon appearance.

I recognize every name except Bret Hemphill. I wonder where Bengie Molina was that day.

This has got to be one of their all time worst lineups

His major league debut.

Nope, that was September 7th and he went 0-1 with a walk.

Maddon caught flack for putting out essentially a MiLB lineup that day, in getting no-hit with 13 Ks.

Matt Luke hit a few bombs. I vaguely remember a walk-off or significant one against the Dodgers.

This is unlocking some menories for me. Was he the guy with the gnarly scar on his face? And didn't he play for the Dodgers and then get traded to the Angels?
