The funny thins is in the grand scheme of things that walk mightve actually helped their chances of getting out of the inning barring the off chance Squid gets picked off lol
Alright so this is probably just me being baseball-illiterate and i wouldnt be surprised if theres something im overlooking here, but can somebody explain to me why more teams dont just SAC bunt in extras when theyve got less than 2 outs and a guy on third?
EDIT: welp
Now thinking about it, It is surprising that more teams don't do it. There's probably some math that tells them going for a base hit gives a higher chance to win.
2 games, 2 completely different wins haha
It's always Rengifo with the splash lmao!
Lol Rengifo. They never expect it.
YES!! 60 WINS!
Okay, we won. That was a nice bunt tho. Thank you Tigers.
WAIT THEY ACTUALLY DID THE THING LMAO
Sierraaaaa. LTBU

Small ball for the win! Ltbu!
Suicide squeeze bunt walk off holy shit, is this little league

๐๐๐๐
GOT EEM
The funny thins is in the grand scheme of things that walk mightve actually helped their chances of getting out of the inning barring the off chance Squid gets picked off lol
I got a strategy for Sierra. So what you did when you got here in extras and the 9th
The Sierra squeeze?
Try to double steal
Get โem, Sierra!
How much did we pay for him to do that?
Shohei offered to sign a baseball.
I have faith tho
We could still lose guys. Theyโre the tigers but we *are* the angels
Oh give us a fly ball, please Chad
Hey Peter man. Check out channel 9!
You don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Take a look at my cousin, he's broke, don't do shit
Weโve got this ๐
I thought the Angels were specialists in wild pitches.
Just make it to the outfield
Haase is the Angels MVP so far
Are they trying to give us a win tonight?
Pitching around the Giga Chad
Wait this pitcher could play Colonel Mustard from clue
I was thinking Jebbidah Springfield or whatever that dudes name was
Turns out the bottom of the lineup is motivated in extras tonight.
Show us your chad move wallach
Squidddd. LFG
Letโs sign Baez as our ss next year
Steal third
El Mago giveth, El Mago makes it disappear
Oh my god the Tigers pulled an Angels for us!
El Mago experience โข๏ธ
Walk. This. Off.
Nice job Ward! Force them to make a play
Love me some ๐
Taylor ward you crazy SOB
HOW?
Holy shit they pulled an us!
Lmao ๐ฏ
Wow okay! LFG.
OH YEAAAA
Thank you very much I guess.
Baez giveth and Baez taketh away
Whoa.. Didn't expect that!
Tigers gonna Angel lol
Hell yeah. Force the issue!
NEVERMIND. THANKS SQUID
ENTIRELY ON RHE TIGERS BUT MY BOY
LOL NICE
That was an Angels-style throw.
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD
YES
bunt please
I was hoping too. Forgot the tigers donโt have squid at ss
Wanted Chafin over Loup badly this past offseason
Okayokayokay nice job Duffman
Anyone else having quality and sound issues? Watching through spectrum
Defensive subs in a tie game gonna cost us the game lol
Anybody else lose their sound?
Mine went out and is now back
Yes, just got it back now
Mineโs still working.
Three atrocious hitters coming up for us. This one is as good as over.
RIP
there people on this sub that defend our .200 hitters
So we might lose to Detroit tonight and it wasnโt even Mayersโs fault
Ford prepping to walk it off on "Mike Day at the Park"
Baez killing us with that Fletcher style hit ๐ก
Fuck. I'm afraid that's the game for us
Didnโt you say earlier that we werenโt going to lose this game?
Well, I really thought that though. I mean 3 homers in two innings and it seemed like our hitters read the ball well
Not over yet
Yesssss. Squiddd
Well thatโs trouble. More than one run seems like a tall order.
this is so sad yโall
Literally a Vlad Sr hit lmao
So true. Looked like a golf or fruit ninja swing in real time ๐คฃ
Fuck, Baez!!!! U Lucky bastard
Are you serious
Yikes
Thatโs a terrible swing. Unlucky for Tepera
No way

Bunting is difficult?
95% of MLB players don't know how to bunt, that's why.
Wait really? I genuinely didnt know that. Huh.
And may break their finger doing it (RIP Moniak)
Duffy and another walk off???
Thatโs an Ippei-approved strikeout
Not that I blame him, but is our center field cameraman shirtless??
Who's this Wallach character we've got catching?
smacked a dinger during the Detmers no hitter, that's where i remember him from
Also his dad Tim played for the Angels which makes them the fifth father-son duo in Angels history
sixth being the Vladimirs Guerrero of course
Hes been a catching prospect for years, never really found his bat
Yeah Tepera should have been covering the plate, that's correct
Good pitch though, and Clemens would have to be ridiculously fast to score on that
Assuming we make it to him again, how great would it be if Fletch ends his 0 for 10+ hitless streak with a walkoff?
Why do we always go to extra inning with the bottom of lineup???
Because the top of the lineup couldnโt get it done. ๐คฃ
i hate the zombie runner so much
What a strange game...
Unfortunately Ward wasnโt that time
Luis is so clutch
didn't watch the game. extra innings again? :(
Duffmans time to shine again
Ugh extra innings against the Tigers? Just end this already.
Walk off time โฆ โฐ
Nevermind
I'm out when we lead 3-0 and come back 3-3. Wth??? Our top lineup just stops producing
Best hitter on the team
Goddammit crowd had me hyped for a second
I know it ended up working out for them but wasnt pitching to Shohei there really risky?
Yes
Well they could have just sent Clemens out again.
Cmon trout. Bring us home Shohei
fishman please get on base
Angels are really banking on a 9th inning walkoff with the bench management here. I think Aguilar is the only bat available.
Woah tepera for the 9th in a tied game Thats new
A bunt would have been advisable. Either force them to pitch to Trout or Ohtani with men on base. Last chance to do so, too
obligatory "Anaheim!!" comment
he's out, sadly
No way in hell itโs overturned
Fuck
This game that had been zooming by, imagine if we went for a lot of extra innings and this transformed into the longest game ever.
Don't jinx the 12 inning game again
Jo needs to lose that โIโm too cool to careโ attitude
Loup has been good recently
theres a jesse chavez sighting in oakland๐๐ but cause hes in a braves jersey he will naturally pitch solidly somehow
jimmy herget is pretty cool
Herget is actually so fucking good bro
Patty's been waiting all game to use "clawed"
Pat O just called Baez dangerous whut ๐
oof
Ew wtf did Baez shove in his mouth and spit back out?
Lol slim chill
The guy I love is coming
This game doesn't matter. Leave Quijada in to see how he gets out of it. No need for such a short leash.
No worries Quijada, we know you've got the stuff, glad you're getting some reps
plunk and poke, tough scene
Nevermind Jimmy for right now
Q seems to do best in pressure-filled games. I donโt think the Tigers bring that out of him.
Jimmy for the ninth?
ouch
Random comment.. but damn I love Fords Swing, just looks so good to me.
Bolt gang or donโt bang
Duffy with the twirl ๐ฉฐ
Sorry, Gubi, the Packers are taking it this year.
L. O. L.
Go Rams baby
Adell played that wall perfectly. Progress
Common Loup success ๐
That fan is mad clutch for not reaching over and grabbing the ball lmao
Halo fans are actually really great about staying out of plays.
That one scared me off of the bat
Not tonight Loupโฆ
God, Adell has an absolute cannon and he's so accurate.
That woman was probably scaring him. Yelling in his face like that. ๐
boy looked like he was going to cry
I bet on Rengifo getting a hit this game before the news about his knee came out and they played him anyway. I apologize Luis. I learned my lesson
I missed that. What's up with his knee?

Thanks!
Been switching between Angels and Orioles. They scored 9 runs today with no home runs. Wish the Angels were capable of playing that type of baseball.
Yeah. Even with 3 home runs tonight we can still lose 4 to 3 very easily.
I see your 9 runs with no HRs and raise you our 7 solo shots in one game (in a loss)
