It’s a delirious win, but Duracell throwing 8 straight strikes in the bottom of the 9th, only to give up a 2-strike, 2-out game-tying jack? Took about 4 months off my estimated lifespan.

Still: a win is a win.

Seems like this was another Angels win with no HRs, but it’s easy to forget that around 5 hours ago Suzuki-san went deep. I like the scrappy wins. Getting hits with runners on. Ohtani serving up a steaming plate of langostino to the Deebs.

This will unfortunately be remembered as the game when the umps decided to insert themselves into the center of attention and call those fucking balks. (June)

Maybe this was one of those weird things where the concussion made him even better?

I know! We’re a game below .500 and I suddenly have endorphins coursing through my cortices.

Stay tuned everyone, Daron is going to breakdown the balks from the booth.

I can’t believe Claudio did it. And we actually got a call from the umpire at the end after the crew screwed us all night.

Hardly: those 2 BS balk calls led to 2 runs.

If those were balks (they weren’t), that was a swing (it may have been).

This game should have been over at 5-3 after 9 innings. F***ing umpires
