as much as it sucks to lose that one, im really encouraged by that comeback. for a team that never shows much plate discipline getting all those walks and scoring 4 runs in the top of the 9th shows at least they’re still fighting. which i wasnt sure about it the last few days

At your service, sir.

BLITZ
And Thames in the back
Said, “Everyone attack!”
And it turned into a Halo Blitz!
And Nevin in the corner
Said, “Boys I gotta warn ya,
It’ll turn into a Halo Blitz!”
Halo Blitz…. Halo Blitz…
Halo Blitz…. Halo Blitz…
It’s a Halo Blitz!
IT’S A HALO BLITZ!!!!

It’s a “buttercup blitz”: scoring a bunch of runs when it’s low leverage and of no significance to the outcome. It’s a “participation ribbon”. It’s pressing the ‘walk’ button at an intersection. It’s stopping the Microwave Before it Beeps.

Exactly.

It’s a fake blitz.

Stupid thing but the way these umps are coming after us… chance that Manfred is actively trying to get us to lose in order to force out Ohtani? Doesn’t Manfred hate Arte?

Don’t think Arte is well liked by anyone in baseball … Manfred would probably not be an exception …

And I agree that the umps are definitely coming after us !

Good to see the International Umpire Conspiracy to ONLY Screw the Angels in full force. I’m sure at the meeting tomorrow, they will congratulate one another on being the SOLE reason the Angels stink.

He used to be one of the hardest to strike out. Not so much now.

If Eckstein could hit two grand slams in 02, Fletch can now. Go #22!
