AND THATS A WRAP. A glorious 8th inning whiffathon. Now on to Detroit and at least another 35 k’s. Happy birthday Mr. Trout tomorrow.

At the present strikeout rate, the Halos will strikeout nearly 1,600 times this season.

Boy – their offensive plan of attack was way off.

You saw their plan of attack. Load the bases with no out, then K 3 straight. “K” ing is their specialty.

Had Bryce managed to reach first base he’s much more likely to steal and come around to score.

Jansen is a beast. He simply refuses to cave. His mentality and example are much needed.
I hope to extend him. Let’s go 2 years at the same money.

For those keeping score: The 2025 edition of the LA Angels have now struck out 1,116 times this season, the equivalent of 41 full games of strikeouts.

That’s an average of 9.7 K’s per game. Essentially giving away three innings plus a guy on most nights.

but….but….but….playoffs! “Meaningful games.” “We’re obviously really competitive. I wanted to keep this group together.”
The limpness starts at the top and wiggles down from there…

“Unfinished business”

After they go down with a whimper in the 9th, then business will be finished.

Was that the most Angels thing ever or what?
I guess giving up a run here to really put the game out of reach will be it.

After squandering that opportunity, the team is mentally defeated.

Has any of these whiff machine batters ever hear of choking up on the bat to make contact? The coaching on this team must really stink or players aren’t listening.

They heard “choke” instead of “choke up”

Just need 1 man to reach in the bottom of the 9th to give him his chance.

24 outs, 15 by way of the strikeout. We don’t lead the majors in K’s for nothing.

The Jays need to cut the guy who missed the extra point.
