Angels lose to the MFY 5-1

The MFY are on a SoCal trip and it was a game I was not going to even bother going to. The price would be one thing but the Yankee fans… Ughh. Seriously, when can that team be bad? They last had a losing season in 1992. And yet their fans have the gall to say we shouldn’t hate them because Astros and Dodgers exist. You can hate more than one team you know.

Anyway, Jack Kochanowicz was on the mound tonight against these 2020s versions of the money bags, now with facial hair. He went 6 and 2/3 innings giving up 4 runs on 5 hits striking out 5 and walking 2. One bad inning can sink a start. Especially against a team like this.

5 and 2/3 of a good start and 1 inning of a horrendous one

Highlighted Recap

Neto started the scoring with a leadoff home run. A 440 foot BLAST to dead center.

1-0 Angels

That didn’t last. As the MFY scored 4 in the 4th. We don’t need to see that. 4-1 MFY. The short of it was that a walk with the bases loaded and a bases clearing triple. Bleh.

At least it was close. A 3 run lead is comeback-able. That is until the pitching allowed the 5th run on an error and. Sac fly. 5-1 MFY.

Was there any other Angels highlights? We’ll, our new addition, Chris Taylor, had one. A catch in cf.

Don’t know why the Angels signed him

Anyway the Angels lose to the MFY 5-1. Boo.

Upcoming

2 more vs the MFY and then on Friday the first game outside the state of California in a while as the Angels head to Ohio.

Anyone remember that momentum killing game in KC a couple of years ago? It was the series after the Angels took 3 out 4 in Texas. Angels still won that series, but blew a big lead and that series victory felt like a loss. That Marlins series loss is that momentum killer.

I refuse to go to any Yankees game at the Big A. Ever. Their fans turn it into Yankee Stadium West.

F*** the MFY. F*** the Doyers. F*** the Cheatstros.

Yeah, agree. When we were good (2002-2010) we could hold our own and there were chant battles… but now, forget it !… that is what continual losing does to the fanbase — it depletes it.

In addition there are always a bunch of extra bandwagons for the Yankees when they are fresh off a WS appearance or victory.

Q: will Taylor get a hit before he’s DFA’d?

I think he will get 1 hit and Perry pays Chris $760K for the ball. Then DFA him and do it all over again with Kevin Pillar who just became available yesterday.

No, he is cooked and he is as much of a head scratcher as Vernone Wells was.

No, Wells was an (Attempted) impact signing. Taylor is a space filler and a fraction of the Wells catastrophe.

Everything that was once good, is now gone, BOOM! Over, back to normal.

Welcome to the 🤡🤡 show Chris Taylor.

The 8 game winning streak is now a 5 game wining streak.

This is not the right way to look at it. You can’t take away what has already been achieved.

That 8 game winning streak is in the books — it is part of Angels history and can’t be destroyed. Nice attempt at sabotage however. You are like the book burners in the middle of the 20th Century.

This losing streak is a separate thing. It cannot erase wins that were achieved.

True, but losing the series at home to Miami erased all the momentum and positive energy built. Only way to bring back the positive vibes is to take these next 2 games against the Yanks.
