Game thread - Dodgers at Angels - Billingsley vs. Lackey - 12:35 p.m.

How about the fan at the game who went in wearing blue but forgot the sunscreen and wore red for days on end?

Intentionally Altered Movie Lines:
John Lackey: You wrote that the world doesn't need a savior, but every day I hear people crying for one.

The new Superman is behind Spiderman and Batman, but the air conditioned theater made it worth it, of course...

Wow

Billingsly has a great fastball... good news is, young kids (especially hurlers) tend to run out of gas and get wild.

by johnsamo @ Halos Heaven on Jul 2, 2006 12:51 PM PDT reply actions

wow...cubbies are kicking ass

1st inning---7 runs, yes I said 7 in one inning.

now, 6th inning Barrett 11, Pierzynski 5
GO CUBBIES!!!

Can I lay claim to coining "Napoleon Dynamite" for our favorite rookie?

Napoli

The NAPSTER, or the TERMI-NAPSTER is definitely a welcome relief..when they traded B-MO and brought Napoli in i thought here goes the team....but holy cow!!!!!!!! I think i too am in love....i was in love with Big Mikey when he caught for the dodgers and now Little Mikey..

Friday's game

Saturday's LA Times Sports section had a picture of a dejected Colon leaving the mound with large type "It's still dodgers' town".....Sunday's sports section had a little article on the bottom of the page..."No Doubts about it, Angels needed this"....we beat the mighty dodgers and that leaves a bad taste in their mouths....the columnist was correct though when he wrote that positive attitude has been missing.....

Wow

That's what you call a rookie mistake

by johnsamo @ Halos Heaven on Jul 2, 2006 1:20 PM PDT reply actions

Billingsly looks like a closer

Lights out.... then this stuff. I think he's a natural sprinter the Dadgers are trying to make a long distance runner. This ought to be their new Gagne

by johnsamo @ Halos Heaven on Jul 2, 2006 1:22 PM PDT reply actions

Gagne = Gimp

Would not wish that on the kid

by Rev Halofan on Jul 2, 2006 1:24 PM PDT up reply actions

CABRERA = #59

That steal of home was the season highlight, and the shot of Colon on the bench with Cabrera laughing like a jolly beardless Santa is in the top ten.

I'm really torn here

I'd love another Angels blowout, but SHields and K-Rod are on my FBteam, and I need holds and saves.

Let's hope this hitting keeps up

until the break, 3 at Seattle then 4 at Oakland.

For Lackey.

Hahah, he wants to finish it.

Oops, forgot one thing...

by leftwing on Jul 2, 2006 2:27 PM PDT up reply actions

A great chance

If we take 2 of 3 from Seattle and a split or a 3 of 4 from Oakland, we're in great shape. We've got hte right Weaver on the team, Lackey, Santana and Escobar are dealing and Colon could come back... and it's just two games, but the D looks good and we're hitting.

I didn't think it was possible, but Rex is at least twice as annoying when you watch him talk too.

true. so so true

Heh Hud ...

Vinnie has what they call talent thats how he does it.

Also I like the shaft "the Hud" gets from Mr.Scully

is there a Broadcasting school?

ANGEL-BALL IS BACK!!!!!

our angels are back on track...they are playing angel-ball...even AK is back.....Kennedy did a slow-mo knock-over of the catcher..lol....

by angelsrallymom on Jul 2, 2006 2:45 PM PDT reply actions

some explain to me

I really don't understand going on contact with the infield in. Especially to the left side. If it goes to somebody, you're dead, if it gets through, you have plenty of time. I don't get it.

by leftwing on Jul 2, 2006 2:46 PM PDT reply actions

ya

maybe someone should tell mike that..i fully agree with you

by hathaway93 on Jul 2, 2006 2:46 PM PDT up reply actions

that's Mikey's politics

run 'em aggressively.....warranted or not

by ladybug on Jul 2, 2006 2:48 PM PDT up reply actions

running

that is Scioscia's way of managing....something he learned at Tommy's knee....

Its not fair throwing that kind of stuff to rookies.

yeah, right :-D

by ladybug on Jul 2, 2006 3:16 PM PDT up reply actions

5 games back baby

As much as has gone wrong this season, we've still got great pitching. If we can play better defense and score a few runs, we can still win this thing.

Now let's go beat up on the division this week.

Donnelly "hurting" confirmed

"Scioscia said Brendan Donnelly has been bothered by tightness in the trapezius muscle in his upper back, a condition that restricted him from adequately finishing his pitches. Donnelly faced four batters Saturday and walked three of them. Scioscia said there is no thought to putting Donnelly on the disabled list..."
