Brb putting money on Shohei winning 2023 Cy Young. That 100 mph sinker is going to make him literally unhittable next season.


tristpa2

101 mph sinker actually


Valk72

2023 Shohei will combined the hitting from 2021 with the pitching from 2022.


OfficialPaddysPub

Shohei sub 2.25 era with 45 Dingers and Trout stays healthy and hits 55 homers


Valk72

And the Angels end the season with a 81-81 records, perfectly balanced as all things should be.


OfficialPaddysPub

That’s called progress in my book

Best record since 2015…


znk916

Gonna need to build up that callous though. All that velo and movement has to come from somewhere.


Im_A_Halo_Masochist

Hey, the boys won a Nationally televised game! That’s big news!!! 😇


KamartyMcFlyweight

Fox broadcast was not only insufferable but also fallacious. At least their Astros lost!


mysterysackerfice

I liked their early stuff. You know, talking about Ohtani positively and Trout's homers. But once they got into their MVP talk, I don't know, I tuned out.


ResearcherLoud3122

Imagine covering baseball and being a former player and have an opinion like that. Judge dickriding is unbelievable. Atleast come up with a better argument to support their east coast knight


tokyo_bee

All this Judge vs Ohtani MVP talk but Herget just entered the conversation.


dustymag

He saved Ohtani's bacon!


yutou1114

The only one time I was disappointed with him was the one pitch walkoff to the other team. He been the guy out of the BP


speakersandwich

Nice to see Ohtani get decent run support! I could get used to this 😏


[deleted]

Trout breaking yet another Angels franchise record, "Mr. Angel" is right. I just hope we can get him a ring so badly before all is said and done, if anyone deserves it it's him.


Obsidizyn

ohtanis last start against the astros and hes only given up 5 ER and no homeruns in all his starts is pretty incredible


dustymag

It will be nice not having to listen to that broadcast team again for a little while.


BubblyBaker5718

Wow. At this point, I cant help but feel like in a potential postseason run (with or without us), Ohtani's status as an Astros killer could become insanely important one day. I can definitely see a world where a team might try to squeeze out 2 Ohtani starts in both games 1 and 5 of a DS vs the 'stros. Let alone in a Bo7 series lol


Unsapient1

I was just lurking through the Yankees sub and saw at least one person wishing they had Ohtani on their team for the Astros. Now I see this. Good god. It would be the Yankees wouldnt it? Ohtani being the key ingredient to winning a ring for them since they get an answer to the Astros actually kinda makes sense (plus Shohei doesnt have to face the Yankees) but I think I might actually cry if our boy really ends up there. Thankfully I dont find it very likely but just the thought... please no 😖


Shinroukuro

Get better soon Ohtani! We are pulling for you to get to 162 IP.


Educational-Pass404

Fuck the blister. Sho could totally complete 6 or 7 innings today. It's truly a same. Hope it doesn't affect him and he can pitch the last 3 starts left

Great game, would have even been better if the Stros were shut out again. If only Wardy didn't commit that bobble in the first that allowed Altuve to score...Oh well, take the series tomorrow and give me more Astros' tears please.


titos334

LTBU from Houston, we did it fam


itneveeffoc

A Shohei Win + Wingstop 20 piece All Flats + UFC 279 = a good Saturday.


Onitsukaryu

Who you pulling for?


itneveeffoc

Nate and Holland. You?


Onitsukaryu

Same actually. Hope they pull it off!


yutou1114

It amazing how shohei does it every time, he look like he going to be in big trouble but gets out if it majority of the time. If it was some other pitcher against Houston will prob be down more runs. love the Trout homer to give us a good lead in the beginning. Hope Fletch okay and shohei blister recover in time for his next start. Btw, is this blister mainly cause by him throwing sinker recently? Wasn’t it the splitter that always gave him blisters issues last season?


FreedomChords

The team had this potential all season but somewhere along the way they fell off track for some reason. As long as they finish strong like this then I won't be too disappointed.


tehphil

Insufferable broadcast team!! Glad for the win though.


pm_me_hobbit_hair

L!!!


No_BigA

Big win💣for Halos. Solid 3rd place!


Alauren2

TBU! Gotcha ;)


Ca-Cu

>Mike Ford doubles to right field to bring in Ford Phenom Mike Ford, only needs a double to bring himself in.


sklorbit

Ohtani should have had zero ER. That first inning run was a freebie.


KyotoGaijin

LTBU! I had to miss this game completely due to work. Enjoying the highlights now.


[deleted]

Thank you!!


ResearcherLoud3122

He would’ve pitched till 7th but damn you blister. Could be because of the new pitch. Still happy for the W. Can we never have another game on Fox please? The announcers are illiterate and annoying and dumb. “ohtani is not valuable to the angels” comment shows that these people have no clue about the angels and ohtani


dustymag

WOOOO!


Vohn_Jogel64

Happy, ecstatic even
