The botton of the 9th will go real quick.

You'll all see.

It’s always that way. Like 9 pitches or we get the tying run to the plate and pop out.

Randazzo will probably get fired for talking so sad about the team.

He's trying to spin that "a good run" is all they need to "GET BACK IN IT".

LOL!

35-13 gives them a shot at the 3rd wild card spot.

Pederson with an Angelsesque at bat there.

Yup.

We're not coming back from this onslaught!

[SoCalDucksFan]

9th inning batting practice for the Giants.

A lot of money a six pack gives me a shot at a playboy bunny. 

[SoCalDucksFan]

Lots of Giants fans it sounds like.

[TroutField]

Lol 6 runs. 

 

It’s quite literally unbelievable 

[Chico]

This is a bad dream.

Someone please tell me why Estevez is the closer? He has 23 saves this year. He has 43 saves in his seven year career. Many closers have 43 saves in one year. The guy blows. Who said he can close? The big dummy. Can't the Angels find a legitimate closer? This is the second time in three games that he's let in three or more runs in the final inning, ruining both games in the process. Meanwhile the Angels are fighting for their lives and they have a closer who can't close.

And the Angels are going to let Ohtani walk for nothing. 

Moreno needs to go! 

[eligrba4ever]

The opposition is batting .189 against Doval. He ain't even the closer.

[Jay]

Let's go all-in!

What a joke.

Yes he is. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Not watching, did the crowd boo or anything? This team is an absolute shit show

Been having a good year but a 1.40+ WHIP from a reliever is pretty bad. He's been able to avoid damage despite constantly putting runners on base for most of the year but it's coming back to bite him hard these past few outings now

Thank you. Even during his perfect saves run he was pretty sketchy a lot of those outings.

Start warming up a new guy to close games in 2024. I like Soriano.

Our broadcasters sound so defeated in this 9th inning. They barely have words. This team continues to look like the biggest joke in baseball for adding all these pieces at the deadline. Wow.

Fuck you Arte. Sell the fucking team to an owner that knows how to delegate decisions to people with baseball minds.

[TroutField]

Last little vent for the season from me and I’ll stop. 
 

How the hell is Aaron Loup going to survive the entire year? Someone should go back and see how many losses can be attributed to him. He’s so bad it’s crazy, and we just keep on trying and trying for him to be successful. 
 

Perry let down every Angels fan by failing so badly at building a bullpen. 

[SoCalDucksFan]

Tell me again why Ohtani should sign a long term deal with the Angels.

[SoCalDucksFan]

It's Rally Monkey Time!!

[daygloman]

9 pitches, 2 outs.

 

[Jay]

I'm shocked that Thaiss struck out there. 

[Waybackman]

At least they’re putting up a fight!

[SoCalDucksFan]

It's ALL Giants Fans now.

[fan_since79]

Egads!

I turned away from the game to write a couple important emails, and just now returned.

Man oh man...

[daygloman]

Welp, that's that!

Talk about laying down and dying.
