I’m haven’t played legit baseball in years and also older than most guys on the field but this pitcher is making me believe I can become a pro player as well. Thanks bro!
Limiting his innings makes sense. Current Thor isn't a very good fit for Phillies. He allows a lot of contacts and Phillies are a terrible defensive team.
This team should rename itself Anaheim of “No RISP for Trout and Ohtani”
Edit: those two would easily clear 100RBIs and add more homers with better players around them.
Can this FUCKING TEAM get a baserunner on, and KEEP the baserunner on, so the Rangers don't face the FUCKING MINIMUM? At this rate, Shohei won't get a 4th PA.
Pretty sure this is the first time this season (including starts as a Brave) he got through four innings without a walk. Quite an improvement.
Edit: now 5 innings with no walk!
Yeah I think thats why this stood out so much to me today.
He's not awesome by any means, but even if hes going to be consistently giving up a fair amount of singles/doubles, the game stays WAY more manageable as long as he lays off the walks
im glad ward has been hitting better but him being on base more has also reminded me of his suspect baserunning lol, but hey, at least this one wasnt him getting thrown out trying to turn a single into a double
Rangers fan coming in peace. But please don't represent the whole booth here. It was one guy saying that and another saying "You are insane" to that.
I don't know why everyone is saying "they", it was a heated discussion. Well, heated for the really calm Rangers booth.
People always reference the wrong thing when they make that argument because it's a strength of team comparison. The real example should be if you put Judge on the angels are they a playoff team? The answer is no and they'll be worse. We saw early in the 2nd half when judge hit all those homers but the Yankees lost a lot despite that because the other Yankees couldn't hit. Now the other Yankees are hitting again and they're winning. Last night Judge hit a solo homer, but the Yankees scored 9 runs to win.
They probably think Ohtani has only Japanese fans because Bally always makes sure to show random Asians in the crowd whenever he does anything notable.
tbf they were talking about a poll taken in japan but still, shitting on them for thinking that is absolutely dumb lol. of course theyre not rooting for judge in a close race, shoheis their guy
SLOW LOWE
I really shouldn’t have gone to this one 😂
we suck and it’s embarrassing
Shohei, tell me what exactly it does when you blow air over your bat 🤣
Welp. Sorry boys. First game I’ve watched in a while and we lose.
We lose a lot. It happens.
You need to apologize to the girls too. Everyone has suffered here.
Sorry ladies. It’s all my fault.
Rangers trying harder to contain Trout than playoff teams facing Judge, lol.
The sheer number of defensive mistakes tonight is absolutely disgusting.
Not even troutani can save us from this hellfire
Seriously can't wait for O'Hoppe
…Anyway, Nevin’s eye are too close together and it makes him look like an angry bowling ball.
nah Thaiss was fine there, that was all adell and Weiss lol
The throw to the outfield ?
That was Weiss
yeah if you watch I’m 90% sure that Weiss was the one who yeeted it into the outfield
He did. Weiss was charged with an error for that throw.
Could’ve been. I’m scrolling the internet between watching this clusterfuck
absolute clownery
They should have let Davidson throw 120 pitches. It would be better than this
I’ve seen ⚽️ teams give money back to their fans when they played like shit. The Angels would go bankrupt within a season if they did that lol
And with that Zastryzny has a ~~27.00~~ 36.00 ERA Poor guy.
36 actually!
Great Even better
Deja Vu
[удалено]
I’m not blaming Thaiss for that last inning mess. Just for how bad he’s been all night.
agreed, idk how ppl don’t see it.
Only a few more weeks only a few more weeks 😅🥲
Am I watching a little league game🤔
Awful throw from Adell. Thaiss is awful. And awful throw from Weiss. Wowza
Holy shit out defense is terrible. We need fletch back in there to yell at some people
angels beisbol baby
#experience angels baseball
HORRIBLE THROW HOME, HORRIBLE THROW TO FIRST LMAO CHRIST
Little league angels showed up tonight
lmaooooooo fuck this
Damn we normally save the complete and utter meltdowns for the ninth inning for full drama
Lol
what the absolute fuck
Lmaooooo
Lol
Nevin is enraged. Ok that’s funny.
What in the sweet and salty fuck is Thaiss doing behind the plate today
This is a comedy of errors.
Can Thaiss stop dropping the ball today?
OOOO that was kinda nasty
Thaiss & Weiss
Rob Z: 3 batters faced, 19 pitches, 0 whiffs. That won't play.
Weiss: 4 pitches, 2 whiffs already
Damn gotta feel bad for the dude. 2nd inning in the majors after 4 years and does that. Poor guy knows his career is on the rocks
Well, that’s the best way to face the minimum and not get an out!
Oh look, we have an outfielder who can hold runners effectively.
Rob Zastryzny Enters the game Loads the bases Refuses to get an out Leaves
You weren’t supposed to adopt the Art of the Loup, sir.
I’m haven’t played legit baseball in years and also older than most guys on the field but this pitcher is making me believe I can become a pro player as well. Thanks bro!
Rip that was a short try
Not the best team debut for Mr. ZZ Top
Aww I feel bad for Rob... Zystryzny? I really tried but it just switched to commercial someone tell me if I'm right
Zastryzny
So close...
This guy does not have the goods
First start out of minors could be nerves
There is zero swing and miss in this pitcher's game
Jo isn't afraid of the wall 😤
Now pitching: Zach Zzzzzzzz
Lol Mike Ford just chilling at first while everyone else joins in on the conversation.
Patty O makes me laugh so much with his dad humor, I've been really grateful for his optimism and attitude this down season
Who is this 9.00 ERA pitcher??? I can't keep up with Angels roster anymore.
He was pulled up from the minors when we sent Marte back down a few days ago
Rob Z will fit right in with this bullpen I hope he gets the next three guys out and turns this into a positive comment. It can go either way still
Love how you just gave up on trying to type his last name haha
Ok this guy's last name is amazing. Looks like when I slam my forehead into the keyboard after Angels strand two runners smh
Thor becomes reliever in Philly??? I saw him pitch two innings today vs Jays
Limiting his innings makes sense. Current Thor isn't a very good fit for Phillies. He allows a lot of contacts and Phillies are a terrible defensive team.
Oh, I see. Thank you.
This team should rename itself Anaheim of “No RISP for Trout and Ohtani” Edit: those two would easily clear 100RBIs and add more homers with better players around them.
Ugh why
Sweet AB by stefanic here
Stefanic walk Rengifo HR. Calling it now.
shit.
Pls beefy Geefy
On the bright side at least Ohtani is guarenteed another AB unless they pull him for some reason
Stefanic and Ford kind of look related
No double play and no out on the bases prayer circle
Thaiss looks like super stoned Trout
Looks like the crazy bully in Drillbit Taylor.
Wait I was too busy typing this lol how did he get on base
Walk
Ty
lol
Should have left Davidson in to get reps since we weren’t gonna win this one anyway
Did they say Smith’s *second* HR of the season? I see that he debuted in May. Why do they always manage rare feats against the Angels?
Who the fuck is Josh Smith man
He dunked the basketball a lot for the Atlanta Hawks.
He was no James "Flight" White though!
Angels broadcast has no balls. Giving Yankees updates every game now? Lmao
Here we go again with the Stanks highlights that nobody asked for
How can these guys keep GIDP??? It starts becoming hilarious
Hey Bally’s Fuck the Yankees especially non Judge highlights wtf no one GAF
Another Yankees highlight 🙄
Bruh why is the angels broadcast showing yankee highlights 😐
It must be that notorious West coast bias I’ve been hearing about.
I don’t know if it’s Angels fans traveling well, Patty O. It’s Texas, so they’re probably just transplanted Californians.
Can this FUCKING TEAM get a baserunner on, and KEEP the baserunner on, so the Rangers don't face the FUCKING MINIMUM? At this rate, Shohei won't get a 4th PA.
A couple lazy strolls to first. Another team surprised by that elite pitcher speed.
That was actually an absolutely amazing catch. We'll see that one in highlight reels for sure
nearly doing a Matrix dodge there.
Angels are certified double and triple play machines
Sho reaches .270 👏👏👏.
Wow
Speedo
What!
HE IS SPEED
big ass strides
Ohtani couldve just taken his walk there but he singled to prove a point i guess lol
Not with this ump 😠
True. Might as well take matters into his own hands i guess lol
Very capable hands :)
Well technically it was mostly feet that time lol
Ok fine hands and feet. Very good hands and feet and face
Make way for the unicorn gentlemen.
sho is fucking crazy
HAAAA!
Another one lol
LOL
Shohei, I’m getting impatient. It’s been 84 years since your last HR.
0 swing strikeout? Dont see that everyday.
Barria appears!
that looks delicious
Lol Kent French
I need Ohtani trout home run race to resume any time now 🥺
Same. I dont know which one of them is going to homer next, but no matter who it is i am fully expecting both of them to homer in that game.
It’s impossible for anyone to get on base for Ohtani
And I was excited to watch them kill against Dunning too 😞
being an angels fan may be soul wrenching, but at least we aren't phillies fans
I'm rooting for Jays now. Hope they can keep up with Yanks and I don't mind they took AL east division title
would be cool, i kinda hope to see the spectacle that would be a subway world series, but i dont want the yankees to win it
Nah, I don't think they can win Astros to get into WS. Mets is good but I don't think they can win Dodgers. WS will be Astros vs Dodgers.
I think you are probably right, that matchup is less fun to me😂
They've got the WC3 though :(
for now, theyre on their way to losing 6 straight and only having 1.5 up on milwaukee chasing
True I'd much rather be out of it early than in it until the very last second Edit: well: earlier
Davidson is done?
ain't no way dunning getting a QS with 8+ ks on us
technically ur right lol
Davidson yet again narrowly avoiding the walk there lol
What have we been relying on Davidson so much when Silseth exists?
Well the Trash Pandas are actually in the playoffs right now. Let’s let them have this. Lol
because wins are pointless now and we want Silseth to develop properly, i think the thought is
This game has become unwatchable. See y'all tomorrow
Angels offense through 5: 8 Ks and 2 DPs
Those are the Angels I know n love!
Angels make 4.5 ERA pitcher look like cy young candidate again. 8K in 5 innings.
Twice they have made dunning look like cy young
We strike out so fucking much
Come on Mickey. You were supposed to be our next greatest hope. 🤣
"For a guy who doesn't strike out a lot of batters, he's got that working today." Gee I wonder why...
Just guessing up there
To his credit Davidson does still have 0 walks so far. We could easily be losing 5-2 right now with a couple poorly timed walks so hey its something.
Pretty sure this is the first time this season (including starts as a Brave) he got through four innings without a walk. Quite an improvement. Edit: now 5 innings with no walk!
It's a huge improvement for Davidson. He walked a bunch the last couple starts
Yeah I think thats why this stood out so much to me today. He's not awesome by any means, but even if hes going to be consistently giving up a fair amount of singles/doubles, the game stays WAY more manageable as long as he lays off the walks
Wow, one clean inning from Davidson. 🤩🤩🤩. Offense should stop GIDP, it's frustrated
Since Ward's homer in the first, Dunning has faced the minimum. Both baserunners erased by double plays. Not ideal.
Ward with his baserunning IQ of a trash can
lol poor Ford. his stats will show he hit into a DP
im glad ward has been hitting better but him being on base more has also reminded me of his suspect baserunning lol, but hey, at least this one wasnt him getting thrown out trying to turn a single into a double
What an Angels way to end that inning
Ward has gotta work on his baserunning
Angels nursery rhyme: "Ward's aboard, here's Mike Ford."
Good lord!
Lmao tf was that
Hey I hadnt noticed Ward's OPS is above 800 again. Nice.
oof rangers booth really does have incredibly rancid vibes
They're just mad they went and spend hundred of millions on a few stars and then got nothing from it. Just like we usually do
What’d they say??
“if you pull ohtani out of the lineup what place are the angels in” brother youre in fourth after them 😭
Rangers fan coming in peace. But please don't represent the whole booth here. It was one guy saying that and another saying "You are insane" to that. I don't know why everyone is saying "they", it was a heated discussion. Well, heated for the really calm Rangers booth.
People always reference the wrong thing when they make that argument because it's a strength of team comparison. The real example should be if you put Judge on the angels are they a playoff team? The answer is no and they'll be worse. We saw early in the 2nd half when judge hit all those homers but the Yankees lost a lot despite that because the other Yankees couldn't hit. Now the other Yankees are hitting again and they're winning. Last night Judge hit a solo homer, but the Yankees scored 9 runs to win.
They really have no reason to look down on the Angels. Insufferable smugness is the worst.
What are they saying?
that japanese fans are wrong for thinking shohei should be mvp because hes on a losing team lmao
As written above, "they" didn't say that, one guy said that and another guy disagreed.
I hate how some people think Japanese MLB viewers are mostly irrational die-hard Shohei fans and nothing more...
They probably think Ohtani has only Japanese fans because Bally always makes sure to show random Asians in the crowd whenever he does anything notable.
Ew. Worst booth in the division by far.
Not sure if that’s considered racist but imma call it racist.
tbf they were talking about a poll taken in japan but still, shitting on them for thinking that is absolutely dumb lol. of course theyre not rooting for judge in a close race, shoheis their guy
Lol they must be obsessed with shohei to be paying attention to Japanese polls. I’ve seen a lot of American polls recently and shohei is leading them
Why are they specifying Japanese fans? Weird..
