Angels Lose 3-1 in Extras

Reid Detmers was good today. He two hit the Mariners through six although he gave up three walks. Unfortunately, the Mariners held the Angels to one hit and one walk in the same span. It was a very uneventful game. Detmers came out to pitch the seventh inning and gave up another walk to J.P. Crawford. Luckily, Crawford got picked off before Victor Robles singled. Chase Silseth came in to replace Detmers after 6.2 innings and a 0-0 tie.

Silseth was able to strike out Cole Young to end the top of the seventh inning. The Angels went three up three down in their half of the seventh inning. Drew Pomeranz came in to pitch the eighth inning. He got one out but then gave up a walk and a single to put a Mariner in scoring position. Josh Naylor popped out to second and the runners did not advance. Randy Arozarena grounded back to the mound for the third out.

Jordan Romano pitched the ninth. He struck out two and got the third batter to line out to Zach Neto. The Angels all struck out to send the game into extra innings. Brent Suter came in to pitch. Cole Young tripled to drive in the ghost runner (of course). 1-0 Mariners. Suter threw a two out wild pitch but somehow Cole Young was unable to score. Josh Naylor singled, though, and both of the baserunners scored. 3-0 Mariners. Randy Arozarena also singled. Suter finally got the third out from Leo Rivas.

Mike Trout did score on a sacrifice fly by Jorge Soler so the Angels wouldn’t be shutout. Yoan Moncada then struck out to end the ball game. The Angels lost 3-1.

……but I’m sure it was a safe, family friendly environment at the Big A for the game last night. The final score be damned, Arte is pleased with the outcome.

Halos pitching, until the 10th, was solid, so that’s something.

Angels have lost the last 6 home openers I’ve attended. Perhaps going to home game 2 is the play

After eight games the Angels have the lowest team batting average (.186) and most strikeouts in the majors.

This offense is offensive, and boring. AND somehow more disappointing than expected

Not too much of a make over from last year, Lowe has replaced Ward and Angels are on pace for lots of customary things

Let’s see…8 goes into 162 20.25 times. 20.25 times 93 equals a lot. A new record.

I broke down and used the calculator. The old bean ain’t what it used to be. Anyway that’s 1883 Ks at this rate

The ineptitude is reaching levels that words can’t even express. My da explained to me that this would be painful, but we’re entering historic levels… not hyperbole at this point.

Sadly for the Angels there are no potent bats available in their system at this time to replace the product at the major league level. It’s early in the season, but the early signs look pretty ominous.

I’m positively not optimistic. See y’all tomorrow—probably the only game I’ll go to until this regime is over. As a wise man once said, “I can’t stands no more

The Taylor Ward and Brock Burke trades are looking pretty awful at this point. It’s hard to vision a potent Angels offense this year. This is not a team built for high OBP, but one that is very susceptible to striking out a great deal.

When Moncada came up to bat, I told my son he was going to strike out looking, and not even swing the bat for strike 3. And he didn’t disappoint…. Except for the fact that the Angels lost the game.

How many more games do we have to suffer thru Soler and Moncada?

Anyways, Reid was fabulous. See y’all for tomorrow for more torture

They got exactly as many hits as everyone not named Oswald. Either everyone sucked equally or … the Mariners pitching was pretty good.

If it was just tonight then sure. They are boat anchors in the heart of the lineup.
