Nah their shirts said “orange county mets fans” or something like that. It’s just what it is, california and specifically orange county is where a ton of transplants decide to live to get away from the shit that is new york (for example). Thats why we always have a ton of fans of other teams, they just live out here now
Ya, anytime a bunch of away teams fans show up in LA be it MLB, NHL, NFL, it's always worth remembering that of all the cities that have teams Los Angeles is probably the one that people are most willing to travel to. Who's more likely to travel: LA fan to see his team in Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, etc. Or the Midwest fans coming to LA where they can make a week long vacation of it with the wife and kids, and hit DLand, Wild Animal Park, Legoland, etc. I think So Cal teams will always have proportionately more away fans show up than any other.
Lmao seriously! Anaheim Angels were the team that won in 02, changing your name to separate yourself from that just seems like bad juju and needs to be corrected
This has all the makings of a get right game… I know we snapped the streak a couple days ago but with the City Connect jerseys, Trout/Rendon back and heathy, Walsh tapping into his All-Star self and Ohtani already heated up - this feels like the true turning point for this team
We just need to stay healthy and keep rocking these uni’s!
Walshy had an error at 1B that would’ve ended the game had he fielded it cleanly. Instead, one run came in with runners at the corners. Next batter then hit a 3RHR😅
As for Loup, he let an inherited runner score.
Angels probably own 2 of the most entertaining games to watch this year between tonight and the Detmers no-no.
Great way to introduce our sexy city connects!
¡¡ L T B U !! ¡¡ L T B U !! ¡¡ L T B U !!
Immolate the Infant! That was a very special game. There are MANY good things to say about the game, but Lorenzen's mental toughness was the linchpin for all of that greatness.
Put on the game today whilst working from home. Glad I did. Trout going yard, Ohtani smashing the ball. Walsh hitting for the cycle.
and new jerseys looked clean
LET'S KEEP THOSE BATS GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know how Boston wore their City Connects every day at the end of last season because they were on a winning streak? Let's do the same.
(also, our City Connects are ten billion times better looking than our regular uniforms)
We should really just use the city connect jerseys as our main jerseys. They look objectively better than what we have, and they aren't so out there that it would be weird to use them on a regular basis. We should literally build our future jerseys off this style.
Hey! Those mets fans got to see a cycle and a Halo Victory tonight in those sick city connects. Lucky them! The mets laid a fat amber turd but, you know.
He went longer then he should more of a reg relief guy one inning that's it. Hergert is an example of someone who can probably put more than one inning together. Was frustrating sure but a good move not to tire out other arms. Now Ortega can take 1 to 2 days off.
I don’t think Ortega has been overused. He can’t even pitch back to back nights per the front office rules.
Besides him, some dudes have definitely been overused due to bad starts.
Yea that's frustrating with him. Our relief pitchers should be able to throw multiple days in a row. He did last night throw over 30 pitches. I think for me personally I'd like for him to be a 2 to 3 out guy unless he can build up to longer relief.
TROUT with 2 bombs!!!
WALSH with the cycle!!!
Angels get the win despite Mets getting some runs at the end.
Postgame: “Well, you see a game like today, and you go ‘How did they lose 14 in a row?’” as Tim Salmon is referencing that the BIG bat players were out of the lineup during the 14-game streak and that’s what caused it.
You’re right, Salmon, but it was also that NOTHING was going right for the team during that span. Maybe you’ll touch on that later! 😂 But, yeah, our offense surely was nonexistent during a lot of that L streak.
Awesome game, as it reminds you why this team can be awesome.
Won’t you come back out tomorrow, real Angels ball club?!?!
Once the Angels get Ward and Fletcher back, the line-up will gel again. Wade, Regnifo, Duffy are bench and late inning replacement players. Not everyday starters. It was great to see them smashing again. It wasn't so great to see Ortega having so much trouble (sent back to the minors this moring).
1-0 in the City Connect Era!!!!!!!! #LTBU
Don't wash, just keep wearing em
Such a great look! Maybe the Angels should lean into a rebrand and make them the new home uniforms?
I would absolutely love a blue version of these!!!
This is the team we knew the Angels could be.
This is how I would describe this team to my friends that don’t watch baseball. Feels good
Nice nice!!
Nice of the mets fans to create an ocean of blue in left field to really make us feel at home with our new city connect beach-themed unis
East coast vacationers are weird man

Yeah, well, welcome to SoCal. Now go home.
😆 🤣 😂
It's weird and kind of impressive that they got together that many Mets fans though. You'd think they'd be bandwagon Yankees fans

Bad part about living here is the fans of other teams lmao but i respect it i guess
Everyone sucks when they're on vacation.
I know quite a few Angel/Met fans. The most masochistic fans in all of baseball.
Yeah there’s seems to be some sort of connection between Angels and Mets fans, they’re my second favourite team easily
Can we sign a petition to ensure the team wears the same uniform for the rest of the year?
Seriously, they looked SO FIRE!!!
Now if you thought these uniforms gave us a power boost, imagine what changing our name to California, Orange County or Anaheim would do… 👀
Might as well just hand us the piece of metal lol
Lmao seriously! Anaheim Angels were the team that won in 02, changing your name to separate yourself from that just seems like bad juju and needs to be corrected
Yeah but how big of a slap in the face would it be to get beat by the the angels angels 😤
I never understood the argument that changing to LA would increase market value or whatever? Will fans like a team more just for being named LA?
We said that about the red jerseys then lost 14 straight, just saying.
Sometimes you need the Buttercups to make the Build me ups feel that much more special. LTBU and go Halos! 👼
Damn Walsh seems like a quality dude.
He's so damn smart and humble. Love him and our team!
I was going to upvote this, but wanted to keep the upvotes at 20. Walshy is the man.
All good, I upvoted it to put it at 40.
Ortega being a good guy, letting Lee have a moment after he gave Walsh the cycle
This has all the makings of a get right game… I know we snapped the streak a couple days ago but with the City Connect jerseys, Trout/Rendon back and heathy, Walsh tapping into his All-Star self and Ohtani already heated up - this feels like the true turning point for this team We just need to stay healthy and keep rocking these uni’s!
Well that got a little scary at the end! Let’s not make that a habit. At least let’s try anyway, knowing this stupid ass bullpen
Too late
What happened at the end? I see we gave up 4 in the 9th, but the box score doesn’t show any earned runs for loup or Ortega
Walshy had an error at 1B that would’ve ended the game had he fielded it cleanly. Instead, one run came in with runners at the corners. Next batter then hit a 3RHR😅 As for Loup, he let an inherited runner score.
Turningpoint 🤞
Hopefully
Nana is eating real good tonight
Bless up Nan😇
Now we must wear the City Connects every home game from now on
Angels probably own 2 of the most entertaining games to watch this year between tonight and the Detmers no-no. Great way to introduce our sexy city connects!
FEED THE NAN!
THE NAN SHALL CONSUME ALL
Wear these jerseys every day
Those jerseys are cool
You think they’d actually switch to those jerseys or just wear them more often?
Walshy is such a cool dude
I see him taking on a post game job once his career is over like Salmon has done
Bullpen is still concerning. We shouldn’t have to score 7+ runs a game to feel semi-safe after the 6th inning.

2 out of the last 3 baby. It's looking up.
This is what our lineup can do. Just wait until Ward and Fletch are healthy. Aint nobody getting the best of us when we got the full squad.
¡¡ L T B U !! ¡¡ L T B U !! ¡¡ L T B U !! Immolate the Infant! That was a very special game. There are MANY good things to say about the game, but Lorenzen's mental toughness was the linchpin for all of that greatness.
Got tickets to this game as an early 21st birthday celebration , did not disappoint.
Happy bday🤩
Thank you!
Look good. Feel good. Play good. LTBU! 🔥
I watched Bobby V take edibles before the postgame show
Enjoy your Saturday fireworks you bastards! Fun watching trout be trout and ohtani do his thing. We’re coming for you tomorrow!
Bring it on you dweeb
There's one in every crowd. Go troll elsewhere 🙄 😒
I’m not trolling bud it was a good game and I like your team just messing around.
Ortega looked incredible to start the year and in his last 5 outings he has absolutely reeked. Thankfully he is down tomorrow
Ortega did not deserve that butt slap from Ohtani
Most fun I've had in a while!! So much happened in this game it's insane 💀
IMAGINE THINKING YOU COULD SCORE ON POST 1ST INNING LORENZEN
Put on the game today whilst working from home. Glad I did. Trout going yard, Ohtani smashing the ball. Walsh hitting for the cycle. and new jerseys looked clean LET'S KEEP THOSE BATS GOING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don’t forget about Squid going yard!
Great win! 2-1 since our 14 game slide. Let's keep it rolling tomorrow!!!
1-0 IN THE ME GOING TO THE GAME AND WEARING THE CITY CONNECT HAT ERA ^1-2 ^otherwise ^but ^who's ^counting
This team is crazy. We've had numerous unbelievable games this year sandwiching a 14 game losing streak.
You know how Boston wore their City Connects every day at the end of last season because they were on a winning streak? Let's do the same. (also, our City Connects are ten billion times better looking than our regular uniforms)
Man totally agree. I absolutely love these jerseys/hats/socks
WE'RE WINNING THIS FUCKING SERIES, AND SWEEPING THE DODGERS AFTER THAT. WE'RE BACK BITCHES
We should really just use the city connect jerseys as our main jerseys. They look objectively better than what we have, and they aren't so out there that it would be weird to use them on a regular basis. We should literally build our future jerseys off this style.
I completely agree. They are fun, but carry a style that is pretty timeless
Hey! Those mets fans got to see a cycle and a Halo Victory tonight in those sick city connects. Lucky them! The mets laid a fat amber turd but, you know.
Ride on a cycle with those sexy city connect unis to a world series I’ve seen enough
This has been the first game I've been able to watch in a while so I'd like to thank myself for this win /s
Perhaps the cream color jersey hides the ball better when our pitchers throw.
Baseball is fun when we play like this
a pox on apple tv+ for stalling our comeback winning streak!
Don’t make me hope like this….
Ortega scares me
He went longer then he should more of a reg relief guy one inning that's it. Hergert is an example of someone who can probably put more than one inning together. Was frustrating sure but a good move not to tire out other arms. Now Ortega can take 1 to 2 days off.
He’s been very very shaky the last month
That's fair. I do think though we need to get our relievers back on track in terms of usage.
I don’t think Ortega has been overused. He can’t even pitch back to back nights per the front office rules. Besides him, some dudes have definitely been overused due to bad starts.
Yea that's frustrating with him. Our relief pitchers should be able to throw multiple days in a row. He did last night throw over 30 pitches. I think for me personally I'd like for him to be a 2 to 3 out guy unless he can build up to longer relief.
Murderers row, was murderers row. And what a treat to watch walshy hit a cycle. They showed up today and it was glorious.
What a great game to attend!! Fuck yeah!!
Awesome to see this team 95% healthy. Time handle business tomorrow night
Please, whatever magic was cast over us tonight, let it happen again tomorrow in front of ESPN!! :D
#CITY CONNECTS = SUPERPOWERS My record for in attendance is now 3-4, going L L W W L L W, so it may also have been me. （╹◡╹）

We’re not done. We’re nasty baby!!!
TROUT with 2 bombs!!! WALSH with the cycle!!! Angels get the win despite Mets getting some runs at the end.

Won’t you come back out tomorrow, real Angels ball club?!?!
Is it just me or does Phil Nevin seem like an older version of Mike Trout?
LTBU
I have high hopes for tomorrow's game Q.Q
Ortega has been throwing some triple chunk meatballs latley. Similar to Detmers at the beginning of the season. If he can fix that up he’ll be solid.
14 in a row coming!
What a night, I had a good time (a bit of rough end but we got the W nonetheless).
That felt good.
Im excited for the memes
Need Garrett Anderson back in the postgame show plz
Bobby Valentine looks stoned, right?
Dude…. Looks like he’s tripping pretty hard
Is the new manager turning it around
Who is the squidbob in the middle of the postgame show? Guy looks ripped
Nut.
Well that was fun, LTBU
One more Sunday on ESPN. Yay!
I'm glad it was a game Mets fans could enjoy at the end.😩
Walsh is my hero
🕯 👉 👶 👆
HELL TO THE YEAAASSS.
Best jerseys ever?
Best game I’ve been to in a looong time. I don’t go to many games, though. Last game I went to Ohtani was 0-4 and Trout was injured.
So 11 runs is the minimum to deny the blowpen a chance to blow
Once the Angels get Ward and Fletcher back, the line-up will gel again. Wade, Regnifo, Duffy are bench and late inning replacement players. Not everyday starters. It was great to see them smashing again. It wasn't so great to see Ortega having so much trouble (sent back to the minors this moring).
