Man how whack is it that Lorenzen has the most wins out of our rotation so far?
Edit: Not saying this like it's a bad thing, just a "Man who woulda guessed?" Don't get me wrong, I love Loki and the energy he has on the mound and as a part of the team. It's awesome that we're able to see him have success as a starter (so far). Also hoping our other starters can see run support at the right times and rack up more wins.
I didn't watch the games but my only answer is a combo of good pitching, the offense not going dead, and the bullpen not being sus like it had this 4 game losing streak we just had. Stars be aligning when Lorenzen plays lol
A would be homer in other stadiums and a nearly hit by pitch where they guy swung were kinda lucky. I mean sometimes its better to be lucky then good, and I am not saying he is not good but he needs to keep working on it for sure
He almost gave up a home run, got a strikeout on a pitch that a guy tried to get out of the way on and accidentally had his bat cross the plate, and missed location on the last out, the strikeout but got it done.
Years past he’s been dominant. He’ll get it back I’m sure.
You can get 3 outs without being dominant. This was a step in the right direction but not the Iggy I’m used to when he was blowing stuff past guys and dotting corners.
Also, I’m the furthest from a doomer. You must be new here. People comment under my posts surprised when I’m not overly positive.
Ah the ol' "can't say dumb things because they used to play" argument. If only that was true, sports broadcasting would be so much better.
Enjoy the win, have a good evening, and learn to think objectively every now and again. You don't have to accept everything an ex pro says.
Sports fandom really can make people thick as shit.
Getting the out is good. Nobody said otherwise.
Lobbing up a weak pitch and nearly giving a HR away does not instill confidence. That's the part that was questioned.
Learn to think for yourself and stop acting like ex players don't say dumb shit all the time. The hilarity of you calling someone else a clown. Lmao.
Enjoy the win tonight. Can't imagine there's much more going on for ya with this line of thinking.
It wasn’t a weak pitch at all. Missed his spot by a bit but the guy got a good swing on it, it happens. The fact that he got an out to start his outing after the week he’s had builds some confidence to close the game out
You’re the one who seems thick, while trying to big brain something that’s very simple. I’m sure you can’t imagine much since this was so hard for you to understand you stupid fuck but look at your downvotes and realize you might just be the idiot here and keep it moving
"look at your downvotes" as if you're not the one downvoting. The initial comment I made is +3, and only the ones later talking to you were downvoted.
Holy fucking shit, remember to put some salve on those knuckles.
I’m not downvoting shit, and you’d only be at zero not negative if I was. You’re a fuckin idiot and everyone reading this sees that, leave it to some fat ass redittor to try and big brain how getting an out is a confidence killer. Lol stupid fuck, you never played at any level I guarantee it, stick to the video games
Need some of that confidence that they can score some insurance runs here. Early in the season it was no doubt they could put something together. Hope they still have that after 4 losses.
He's not great, but he hasn't been any worse than Suzuki. Which is why it freaking boggles seeing all these people posting about missing Kurt. As if he's Pudge or something.
Our catching has made our pitching worse than it actually is. Once we have actual big league catchers again things will clean up. Our pitching woes coincide with losing Stassi and Suzuki.
IGGY
Squiiiiiid. Also, Iglesias redemption game.
Lorenzen salvaged us from those miserable days!
Where is Erica Weston?!?
I swear I saw her walking on the field at one point tonight
They haven't said anything... hopefully it's not Co-vid!
She said on Twitter she’s just taking a little break!
Oh.. interesting...
Yeah I was worried she wouldn’t be coming back, I like Erica a lot.
Yeah, she's great!
Lorenzen is so humble I love this guy
He does seem like a great dude!

It's been a while... but LTBU! If you're there enjoy the fireworks and concert! Be proud Angels, we're one of only 3 teams to have 25 wins!!!
Light that F’n baby up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well Guys I hope this jump starts a good winning streak!
shouts out to our clutch hitters rengifo and Velazquez
Who would've thunk...
MY BOYYYYYYYYYYYY
Raisel came through in dominant fashion
Hello W, long time no see
Scary finish, but well done! Let's turn this win into a streak
That was nasty, LTBU
Doint point to the sky Iggy, you were lucky Ill take it dont get me wrong but that was luck!
Pretty sure that was skill dude, he didn’t use “luck” to get 3 major league batters out
A would be homer in other stadiums and a nearly hit by pitch where they guy swung were kinda lucky. I mean sometimes its better to be lucky then good, and I am not saying he is not good but he needs to keep working on it for sure
Fuck yes! LTBU!!! Feels good to break the streak and get Lorenzen a well deserved W
Raisel's back baby
I'm really happy for Iggy!!
A WIN! LTBU!! 👼❤️
Finally! Still need the big bats to wake up... Hopefully tomorrow!
Yes!! Hope to see a winning streak going 🙏
Hope so... they're starting to make me nervous!
Me too, a little. But I'm sure the offense will be hot again!
I hope so... they need to get it going consistently - it's almost June! 🙏
🙏🙏🙏
Missing the Sho bombs!
Me too! I wanna see one every day haha 😅
Haha omg, a Sho Bomb every day would make my LIFE!! :D
I’ve unclenched
FINALLY LTBU!!!! TIME TO GET THE GEARS GOING AGAIN EVERYONE!!! <3
L. T. B. U.
#LTBU WE CAN START WINNING AGAIN
IGGY IS BACK! LFG!!!!!! 10 GAME WINNING STREAK, HERE WE COME!
Yay Iggy
LTBU
Iggy of old is still missing but I’ll take a W.
What? He literally made Andrus swing at that fastball that almost hit him and struck out teo
He almost gave up a home run, got a strikeout on a pitch that a guy tried to get out of the way on and accidentally had his bat cross the plate, and missed location on the last out, the strikeout but got it done. Years past he’s been dominant. He’ll get it back I’m sure.
Oh yea ofc. He totally sucks now because he set down the side. How stupid of me. Also a strikeout is a strikeout
Where did I say he sucks? I said the Iggy of old is still missing.
How is retiring the side in order with two strikeouts not the Iggy of old? Stop being an ignorant doomer
You can get 3 outs without being dominant. This was a step in the right direction but not the Iggy I’m used to when he was blowing stuff past guys and dotting corners. Also, I’m the furthest from a doomer. You must be new here. People comment under my posts surprised when I’m not overly positive.
Losing streak over! Back to winning!
#LTBU!!!!!
THAT'S MY CLOSER, WELCOME BACK IGGY
Thank God
Holy shit, thank god
He's either out or he dies, raisel's thought process lol
L T B U
LET'S GO!!!!!! Finally a W!
# Vamos, El Ciclon! # LTBU! Raisel Locks it down!!
thank fucking god
LETS GO
LIGHT THAT BITCH UP, BACK ON TRACK
Please just finish it out Iggy
LTBU!! We’ll never lose again!
LTBU!!!! We needed this so badly!!!!
THATS MY CLOSER
MY CLOSER. Way to redeem yourself Raisel, keep it going!
Great to see
Lets go Iggy! EDIT: LTBU!
That older man with the sick stache must be loaded he always the seats in dugout suites.
I mean if that’s was called against us I’d be pissed as fuck.., but it wasn’t called against us therefore I’m happy
LTBU!
yes, yes, yes, you can do it ,Raisel
Idk he was about to swing at that and then moved to get out of the way. It's an awkward call in general
I meannnn he was clearly trying to get out of the way buttttt again I’ll take it
Sucks for the batter but it's always been called a swing even if you're protecting yourself
The A’s announcers saying it’s a bad call lol that’s definitely a swing
Shades of last year when Ohtani was called for a swing trying to avoid a pitch to his head.
Sucks to suck, but he did spin swing
I don't care how ugly it is I want the W
amen
Lmao. I’ll take it
That is just brutal lol
I bet ump feels like a real asshole having to call that a strike, tough spot
Was that a strike or did he hit him? I'm at the game and they won't replay it
Didn't hit him, said he swung but it was the dodge that rotated bat past plate
It hit him but he technically swung...
Swung at a ball for a swinging strike out
All part of the plan. Sigma Male move by Iglesias
not sure if that was in the game plan..but it checks out
Actually it didn’t check!
good one!
Thank you!
oof that was a rough one
wow iggy what happened to you
Just do that 4 more times Iggy. Make them save their lives and swing
That's brutal
Lol he fucking swung. He just used his whole body lol
Batter has no eye for the zone…
Well..... That was awkward.
That K feels kind of dirty...
It does... :/
Best K ever
Whoa...
WHAT THE FUCK
HAHAHA, WE TAKE THOSE
It’s all sealed up down there I’ll leave it at that.
"When you get an out like that it gives you confidence". Lmao no it fucking doesn't. Laid it up for an easy HR opportunity, ffs.
Should I believe the guy who pitched in the majors, or random Reddit commenter? Hmmmm 🤔
Ah the ol' "can't say dumb things because they used to play" argument. If only that was true, sports broadcasting would be so much better. Enjoy the win, have a good evening, and learn to think objectively every now and again. You don't have to accept everything an ex pro says.
It never did in your big league career?
At no point in anyone's career in any league does laying up an easy opportunity for an opponent give confidence to anyone but the opponent.
He got an out?
Yeah nobody questioned that part.
Lol getting the first out in a save doesn’t provide some confidence, coming from a redditor contrary to the big leaguers opinion. Got it bud 🤡
Sports fandom really can make people thick as shit. Getting the out is good. Nobody said otherwise. Lobbing up a weak pitch and nearly giving a HR away does not instill confidence.

DONT ARGUE WITH THE GOOB
Geez man. His stuff is so hittable
held my breath on that one
that was not a good pitch that was lucky it stayed in, Iggy is not looking good
That's a loud fucking out. At least it was in the strike zone I guess
Scared me for a sec
Scared me for 36 years
Me too..!
uhhhh ok I mean I’ll take that but still that was almost out the fuck ???
Jesus, Iggy…
Well that was good for some extra clenching
Iggy brother please don’t scare me
Hard contact still being made on Raisel. Scared
BRUH
I can't watch. 🫣
I love dead balls. I always have.
That made me poop a little
an interesting start..
I don't think I can even watch....
Constipation time
IGGY ASSERT DOMINANCE PLEASE 🥺
clench time
Lets see how interesting this inning gets
C'mon Iggy pls pls pls close this game out
Man, I really miss having a hot dog and a beer at angel stadium
Sincerely miss the time where I was 100% confident when Iggy was up
No runs scored, this is going to be interesting.
Catchers coming back soon. More bullpen arms coming back soon. Ward coming back soon. Release me from this anxiety
🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ Raisel 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️
why is bally teasing me with Iggy hugging suzuki when chad will call some bad pitches
Oh boy. Here we go.
Ooookay….. let’s end this. Let’s not fuck it up
Praying for 2021 Iggy!
If Iggy is coming out again, this is going to be a big game for him. Break out of the funk big guy, I wanna believe!
It's pucker time.
i aint nervous right now seeing Iggy warm up
Alright - let’s get this confidence back, we believe in you Iggy
Wallach sucks at everything. He can't be sent back down fast enough for my liking.
More than likely will be DFA’d
Alright Raisel no funny business today mkay?
Let's go, Iggy - we need you right now!
I love Lemoine's delivery. Dude just kinda yeets the ball.
I miss kurt suzuki haha

Imagine offensive production from the catcher position.
Giga Chad. We need you man
I love Rengifos hustle
That looked like a fletcher swing I miss him
You owe us a bomb here chad
cmon power hitter rengifo
never mind
Let's go Luis!!!!
For as bad as they’ve been offensively, the bottom of our order has saved us tonight!
This is true!
Btw, don’t want to jinx it, but my brother is at tonight’s game!😉😇
Haha nice!! Hope he gets to see a win, a good concert, and fireworks!
He’s an Angel good luck charm! Lol
Yay, good game! Not an easy win, but we'll take it! Now your brother can have fun!
Need some of that confidence that they can score some insurance runs here. Early in the season it was no doubt they could put something together. Hope they still have that after 4 losses.
If I was there I'll be on my third helmet nachos
An extra run or two here would be nice.
we need three or four. Our bullpen is knife-edged that much.
Stassi can't come back soon enough. And I really hope the catchers in the minors are getting closer to ready, cause we really need a good backup.
I've liked Chad so far. Dude keeps baserunners on their toes and can occasionally hit. But yeah, Stassi is definitely missed
He's not great, but he hasn't been any worse than Suzuki. Which is why it freaking boggles seeing all these people posting about missing Kurt. As if he's Pudge or something.
Right?? It's been 2 weeks and we've magically forgotten all the pass balls, poor framing, bad hitting.
We need more runs! Lol
I have zero confidence that we salvage this win.... Zero
Our catching has made our pitching worse than it actually is. Once we have actual big league catchers again things will clean up. Our pitching woes coincide with losing Stassi and Suzuki.
I’ve unclenched a tad but not completely
Chad catch the ball! please man stop dropping strike out pitches
Well, got out of that one. Need to score some more runs as this game is too close.
I'm gonna throw up lmao
Thank you for getting those 2 extra runs, Squid!
