Napoli good call, but...

..WTY gets it from me.

See You Monday, chowds!

Hell Yeah!

Pretty stupid that it took us more than twice the amount of hits to get the same amount of runs. (Remember we walked in a run).

Still, hope?

we agree! (finally)

And the worst part is Sosh always like to make comments about there are no personal catchers on this team.

And then immediately say, "but Mathis and Santana have something special going on. Absolute bullshit.

it's a horrible stat

it assumes the pitcher was always in control and executed perfectly, which, as we know, DOES NOT HAPPEN.

As a former catcher I get it

but when there is such a big difference in Offense and not a big sample of D you gotta stick the hot hand in there. I think Skipper looks at Santana last year with Naps as well. I think Molina was they guy Santana won with when he won last year

Naps has always been my favorit Catcher since he came up, I've been arguing with my brother

that Martin’s Power is NO WHERE NEAR Napoli’s Power. Like I told Naps at Fan Fest, “I belive you will hit 44 HR’s in the Bigs SOON.” Thats if Sciosca give’s him regular starting time.

Morales and Napoli have been two of my Favorit Angels. I still have not worn the Napoli Shirt since he signed it. Probably will put it in a Frame along with his Signed Rookie card.

he walked a few tonight, but really showed some great command on his strikeouts.

He's still young, but....

I actually think he would be a better reliever than a starter since it seems that he usually gets in trouble when other lineups see him for a 3rd time during the game.

by stolenbases on Oct 5, 2008 10:08 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

i thought the same thing

he could go the same route as Shields… hard time as a starter, become a reliever and DOMINATE

Walking Ortiz in extra innings with the game on the line

is never a bad idea. So I don’t fault him for that one. He got one ridiculous strike call to go his way (the Ellsbury pitch), but he was very good. I’m fine with him coming into a tight game.

I feel the need, the need...for speed!

Ortiz is nothing of a threat outside of the batter's box

If the Red Sox are going to beat the Angels, they are going to have play a lot better than they have the last 2 games. They know that they are lucky to be in the position they are in thanks to bad defense and a bunch of RISP by the Angels.

Well, it depends how detailed you want

It’s 1:30 AM here, but let’s give it a shot.

I got there wearing just an Angels sweatshirt and my hat, since wearing a jersey there usually leads to ruined jerseys. I sat next to a pole which really obscured my view, so my friend and I moved down a row next to some longtime season ticket holders. These guys were worthwhile fans, asking me about who the hell Jose Arredondo is, and why in god’s name is Scioscia planning on bringing in K-Rod. On my other side, basically everywhere else, I was surrounded by idiot fans whose best cheer was “Hey Saunders…you suck!”

The place was really loud, particularly when Papelbon was in, or when Torii and Howie both missed that damn pop fly. Contrast that to the complete lack of noise when Napoli did his thing, and Aybar. Absolutely awesome.

Weaver for closer?

What an incredible ballgame tonight! We've turned the corner now!

We just got that enormous weight that’s been on our backs and shrugged it the hell off.

We roped their Ace tonight!
So many of our guys came up HUGE!!

Mike Napoli is a GIANT.
HK was driving the ball!
The midle of the lineup is on fire!
Saunders was fantastic
Erick Aybar comes up enormous!
How about my little Jarrod Weaver! An AWESOME performance!
Figgy was key on both sides of the line tonight!
Oliver, Shields, Frankie, Arredondo all were clutch!

We made one bad mistake and we were looking like underachievers out there. Then, we showed what we are made of. Piss and Vinegar!

I've always liked Saunders

Ever since he came up he’s been underestimated. He’s a damn fine pitcher with a great attitude and amazing composure. He may not have overpowering stuff, but he’s been getting it done from the moment he first stepped on a mound for the Angels.

Howie turned the corner as well tonight!

When that error happened i honestly felt like our season had slipped away, and i was thinking how horrible Howie’s winter was gonna be.

But then he came back in the ballgame and got a couple of big hits! He really nutted it up in the second half of this ballgame, and I’m thinking that right now he can’t wait for tomorrow night to get going because he’s off the schneid now.

I put on my jersey. I put on my cap.

I’m not that type of fan. The one who sits in his apartment wearing the gear and roots for the team. But tonight, I pulled it all out. I sat down in front of this TV set, laptop near me for some data reduction. I hoped.

The game was excruciating at points. That three-run single hurt. The fact that the Angels never could get that clutch hit? That ached. What surprised me was how ballsy our pitchers were. Joe was a picture of calm out on the mound. Jose came in and did the job he needed to do. Scot’s pitches danced into the strike zone. Even Frankie got the necessary outs. I was honestly not really sold on the decision to plunk poor Jered Weaver onto the mound there in the bottom of the 11th. But his decision, in hindsight, was inspired. Jason Bay had never seen him! Do you remember when Weaver first burst on the scene, and that sneaky delivery fooled so many hitters? Jason Bay got his first taste to night, and it was bitter.

Napoli was our hero tonight, for sure. I wish that Torii would remember how to run. I wish that Howie would remember what a double is. I wish a lot of things. But even through the bungling, we pulled out the most important win of the entire season.

Whatever happens tomorrow, happens. No matter where we go, there we are. I like our chances. I like this team. Sometimes I question their play, but I am still a fan. I’ll see you all for Game Four.
