wow a 3hr by a minor league player...great job detmers

A pot smoking 31 year old minor hitting under .100 at that. Way to go Detmers for stepping up 2 big starts in a row buddy!

[Revad]

I asked him to throw strikes, maybe that wasn’t a good plan.

Short night incoming for Detmers.

[jsnpritchett]

Kenny Rosenberg warming up.  That's just what you want to see with no outs in the 2nd inning of the first game of a huge series.

[fan_since79]

Kenny Rosenberg isn't a sportswriter by any chance? He's got the right name.

[T.G.]

Reid really needed to step up tonight. 

SMH

[fan_since79]

Geez, only one out?!

[fan_since79]

Nobody covering second.

[No Roles]

just pitiful luis and drury...

[eligrba4ever]

Will Detmers make it to the 5th?

[fan_since79]

Ugly stuff. Hope the offense explodes. There's potential there. I'll feel better when Trout and O'Hoppe return. And even Rendon, but the 2019 version please. It's still hiding down there somewhere.

[No Roles]

wow a wallach triple we all saw that coming...lol

In his last 5 starts before this one, he's gone 3 1/3, 6, 5, 4 2/3, and 4 innings.

Given what Jeff Fletcher said earlier today (i.e., that Rendon hasn't even started baseball activities again yet), I don't think we're going to see him anytime soon.

LOL@Rendon coming back this year

The the radio side they’re saying Rengifo was to blame for that missed double play.

54 pitches for Verlander through three.  At least they're making him work.

[TroutField]

Oh Angels… why did we expect anything different than to fold like a cheap lawn chair when we need you to step up. 
 

Detmers pitches like a huge vagina anytime the game means anything

Reid DON'T DO IT 

Not again

[No Roles]

2hr s for singleton...get the drug test

[Mark68]

Detmers needs to get out of his head. He's just not pitching with any semblance of confidence. 

[nando714]

Never understood why ppl were so high on Detmers

Not even to the fourth. Bullpen game for the Angels. Not always an LAA strength.
