Really enjoyed watching the game on FSN. :yes: Despite being the regular announcers for the Mariners, they were commendably even handed in calling the game. The post-game wrap up was also very complimentary of the Angels.
Angels win! Down 5-0 after 1.5 innings, the Angels claw their way back, tying it with a 1 run single by Garret Anderson, and won on a solo homer in the 10th hit by Orlando Cabrera. "Just another Halo victory".
Wash didn't pitch too well, but he only gave up 5, and the bullpen was solid, giving the Halos a chance. Love seeing the 9th inning two-out comebacks!
Heyyyy alright! Angels take the home stand vs Oakland 2 to 1, tying the season series at 3 a piece. Great game - hope most of you watched it, being on ESPN and all.... pitching duel to the max. Now we're about to take on the dreaded (maybe not this year, lol!) Yankees at Yankee Stadium.... luckily for the Angels, we're the only team in the last 10 years with an above 500 record against the Yanks!
Was quite a nice game - RBI for Vlad the Impaler, 2 RBIs a piece for GA and Finley. Great game pitched by Washburn, and picked up by Shields to close the game out. Rubber match looks to be a slugfest though.... hope our bullpen is ready.
Game 3 in Minnesota: Angel's 2 Minnesota 1 :thmbsp:
W: B. Colon (4-2, 3.03); L: J. Santana (4-1, 3.29); SV: F. Rodriguez (6)
HR: LAA: V. Guerrero (6), J. Molina (1). MIN: S. Stewart (2).
3 in a row! First time this season - and the Angels go 5 games above .500 for the first time as well. Well pitched by John Lackey, the enigma of the Angels' rotation.
Nice little winning streak. :yes: Too bad they have to beat up the Mariners to get it. Ichiro looked out-of-sorts at the plate tonight, swinging at bad pitches, and picking up some uncharacteristic strikeouts.
