We need a few gallons of anti-Freese.

Can any Angel hitter just be clutch once?

I want to go to bed.

Well, the pitching staff have all done their job tonight. Even Salas has been good. Offense has to STEP UP!

Be interesting if Frieri comes in for the save after mouthing off about beating the A's. He better put his money where his mouth is!

Hello,
Whenever I travel to southern California, I stay n Downtown Los Angeles and take the Angels Express train to the stadium. It's very inexpensive and and never crowded. Seven dollars round trip (6 for seniors). I recommend it because it allows you to visit historic L.A., and get to the stadium without having to fight the terrible auto traffic of the So Cal freeways.
Enjoy your visit

Not if he pitches well in the seventh.

I was at the game last night. After the first inning I did relax. I knew it was over so I just enjoyed being at the park and joking with the A's fans. What disturbed me though was watching Pujols. I don't get to see him play in person much. He looks pathetic. He runs worse than Bengie Molina, he looks fat and old. I can't believe he is only 34. We are stuck with a player who has gone from a great asset to a big liability in 3 years. If he continues to bat in the 3 or 4 position it will doom us.

The Angels signed Ibañez, Mulder, Burnett, Blanton, Hamilton, Pujols, etc., etc. The Giants signed Hudson & Morse last year and they are important parts to a team that is 16 game over .500. Giants won 2 WS in the last three years. Who do you think has a better GM?

Jepsen didn't pitch well at all. He was saved by two great catches. If either one of those wasn't caught (especially Green's spectacular play), the game would have probably been lost. Scioscia constantly mismanages the BP. Morin came in and retired the side on 11 pitches. Why oh why wasn't he allowed to pitch the next inning? It would probably Have prevented Salas coming in and using either Smith or Frieri. Scioscia refuses to let players doing well continue to do well, either hitters or pitchers. His style is obsolete and, in my opinion he has outlived his worth for this team.

Watch the A's with runners on. They are light years better than the Angels. If they keep playing the way they are, they will leave us in the dust.

Not above .500 for over a year. What part of mediocrity is not apparent? Scioscia has been so consistently out-managed by Melvin, it boggles the mind.

Why do we keep signing relics like Ibañez?

Normally, I'd say it's a good thing to get the Astros to get-well against.. But, if you combine the Angels recent performance vs. them and the Strohs playing the Yankees tough, I'm inclined to say they just might get swept.
 
Not the start we'd hoped for..

Grant Balfour's no stranger to brawls in the ALDS sparked by profanity, and he was at the center of one again today in the ninth as he attempted to close out a win for the A's against the Tigers. Alas, Victor Martinez was going to make sure today's bottom of the ninth would be punctuated with pugilism.
 
 
Kudos to MLB Network for giving us wide open microphones on the field!

Butcher out for his always successful pep talk.

No score yet, but this game is already over.

Just give him whatever PEDs that Colon took.

Take him out and put Blanton in.

The A's swept the Yankees. The Yankees will now sweep the Angels.

Josh Hamilton is a bottomless well of "issues".
