We cannot even tank correctly. What the hell is the pen doing and not giving up any runs? We are the Angels, this stuff does not happen.

Shohei with the 109 mph grounder that went through the webbing of Ibanez’s glove! You don’t see that every day.

Even Warren is having troubles. What is it about giving these guys a lead??

He needs to hold the bat still and bunt the rest of the way.

This Garcia dude was in Japan and has been outrighted by the Rangers … Why is he looking like a world-beater against us?

Colorado has won. That helps a little.

I don’t think Ohtani will make it. Perez with his 48th.

Yep. It’s like “ballgame” at this point

one good thing is that with Salvy’s HR the Royals are winning. Should they win and we lose (shocking to even think we could lose, I know) we’d be 1 game ahead or behind, however you want to look at it, both Colorado and KC.

Ah … Now the “colorado update” makes sense. Tank Watch 2021

Nobody is pitching to Ohtani with the line up around him.

1 pitch, 2 outs.

There’s an over/under challenge below. 0.9 over under number of Fletcher hits the rest of the way.

True … They station the right fielder pretty much immediately behind the 1B man
