Gameday Thread: (7/28/23 on Apple TV+) Angels @ Blue Jays: Giolito makes his Angels debut! Ohtani playing, Neto scratched

[TroutField]

Two solo shots, could be worse. We need the offense to start stringing together some base runners. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Soooooo, this isn't ideal

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

l'm not having fun

[Angel97]

Giolito’s pitches just seem very straight and flat.

Nice recovery to get out of it with only the solo shot

What the hell is going on with Apple TV, looks like they are playing the Braves vs. Brewers at 4:20.  I can't find the Toronto/Angels game???

 

Answering my own question, my software was not updated even though I had Auto Update on.  So, if anyone has a problem, check to be sure your Apple TV software is up to date.  Works fine now.

I  refuse to watch MLB on AppleTV until the add slime graphics and cool squishy sound effects.  I want to see players get slimed when they make a error, get picked off strike out or hit a homer.

The footage of this game distributed in Japan is AppleTV.

Moose missed a bad mistake on the 0-2 pitch there. Damn

[HeavenlyHalos]

Gausman just embarrassing them right now

Yeah, he looks pretty good

Terrible call. Eff off ump

[TroutField]

8 strikeouts through 4? Can these hitters pull their heads out of their asses? 

[Angelsfan1984]

Step 1: strike out 18 times through 6 innings.
 

step 2: Get to the bullpen.

That ball was outside and Thaiss should have been walked. Ump has missed three calls so far that I have seen, all against the Angels. That was actually a very good plate appearance.

[drpiranha]

Ridiculous. We need a computer controlled strike zone, badly.

[HeavenlyHalos]

One call goes the Angels way. That was a baseball or so low

[HeavenlyHalos]

Chapman bitching on a call that was actually correct.

[warped]

F APPLE ONE

Gausman is dominating our hitters except for the one Ohtani AB.

Be nice to have Trout, Drury, Neto, and O'Hoppe in the lineup.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Another god awful call. This ump blows

[HeavenlyHalos]

The bats have little chance against Gausman and the ump making terrible calls

Giolito is getting those same calls. It's not as thought the Blue Jays are doing anything amazing this game, they have hit two solo shots and a couple singles.

I have seen one call go Giolito's way compared to four for Gausman but I have also been making dinner so I could have missed some. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

and right after I say that, he doesn't get a call hahaha
