vs. ANGELS, 7/23

[WEAVERMAN]

Yeah, we got a 5 inning win against the Yankees too.

But the umpires waited over 2 hours to give it to us.

[schittenden]

Joe Girardi hates that rule. He thinks they should play the game to completion.

I know because he said so last week.

Upon further reflection, the rule should only be changed in games in which the Yankees or a team in front of them in the standings is trailing.

[WEAVERMAN]

Get this 3rd out now, don't face Trout here.

See this is what happens when you walk the number 9 hitter after starting the count 0-2.

[slakattack]

You're right, I only went back to 2008.

Because the 2007 Jeff Weaver and the 2007 Orioles are so relevant to what happens tonight.

Honestly I thought that he had more starts than that against us. I just remember a lot of domination from JW...I stand corrected.

[WEAVERMAN]

2 innings, 2 jams for Chris Tillman, get another huge 3rd out Chris.

[schittenden]

Get this 3rd out now, don't face Trout here.

Too late. Time to tighten it up Tilly. Get out of the second.

Real nice pick off.

[schittenden]

Too late. Time to tighten it up Tilly. Get out of the second.

My bad. Not too late.

[O's84]

Get this out here. Face Trout next inning with the bases empty.

Not the way I drew it up but same result.

[WEAVERMAN]

Nice, really nice, let's make that a momentum changer, let's score, make something happen.

[callahan09]

Haha! Nice pick off.

[Runs2the1Show]

Too many base runners. Inexcusable to let the 9 hitter walk when you have him 0-2.

[Il BuonO]

I'm upset that they blew the first game, and I'm mildly annoyed that they're running out their B-squad offense for tonight's game. Manny's absence can't be helped, but Lough is a bit much.

Also...if you're watching games with the expectation that they're going to lose, IMO, you're doing it wrong. They took the first two games of this series. It's not about "odds" anymore...it's just a thing that's happened. They need to take this one now.

Yep, Lough has no business on the field except as a defensive replacement at this point. And batting second???

We should be going for the jugular.

A hit be nice this inning.
