Lol at anyone thinking Hud has ever shut up at any point in his life.

Well, you're wrong, but OK.

I defend him against the unfairly overly critical.  

Now you know.

Not seeing much of anything we heard about.

Then I have to listen to Gubiza which is not much better. 

I’m sure Gubi is a nice guy but seriously when was the last time he said something actually insightful, educational, or genuinely interesting?  He is a livestream library of “duh.”  And that’s fine it fills time whatever.  But at best it is tolerable because it is so vanilla that it is easily ignorable.

Nice to see from Taylor Ward

[T.G.]

Ward goes yard!

[CaliAngel]

WARD!

[HeavenlyHalos]

Ward is seeing the ball well against Rodrgiuez. 

[daygloman]

Far out!

Go Halos!

[Blarg]

Ward is back!

[CaliAngel]

Good looking swing, great follow through.

[Erstad Grit]

Ward was on fire last year, hope he gets back to that

[No Roles]

YAY WARD

[CaliAngel]

Guess these guys are going to have to lay off the change-up or foul it off if it's in the zone. Wait for a fastball or that flat slider Ward had his way with.

[No Roles]

we already have 6ks in less than 4 innings...

[No Roles]

7k's for halos hitters through 4 innings...solid

Orioles announcer just said that Ward is the first player to hit a home run off of Rodriguez's slider. Maybe choose something else to try and tee off on.

Computerized balls and strikes asap please...

I hope they do the catcher/batter challenges first before full on robo umps. The fun drama that comes with the catcher/batter challenges is too good if they lose a challenge. Also anytime the ump gets shown up live on the spot is going to be S tier moments. 

[CaliAngel]

This is a big inning for Canning.

Feels like it could get out of hand after the team.has seen him a bit now. But hopefully he buckles down and gets a quick 1-2-3 to get the bats back in the Angels hands.

[Rollinghard]

Ward is the best player on the Angels. Really.
