Los Angeles Angels at Detroit Tigers, Apr 27, 2008 5:05 PM PDT
They want us all on our best behavior for the national audience and Ramon Ortiz is still off the team so that helps...

okay let me get this straight
the TAMPA BAY Rays don’t play in Tampa Bay (which is not a city at all), nor in the city of Tampa, but in Saint Petersburg but nobody gargles their team name, uh, okay…

Unfair
the Tampa Bay Rays have been named for Tampa Bay from day one…that was their team name the first time they ever played. Tampa Bay.
It’s not like the Angels were ever “Los Angeles” at any point in their team history. Not once ever. Not even for a day. Especially not on the first day they were a franchise. Especially not then.

Also, no one cares too much about the Rays.
I say that as someone who appreciates the IMMENSE amount of talent they have. I made a point to buy tickets for their series in Anaheim.
The fact is that the national media pays less attention to them than they do even to us.

Yeah, inconsistent is the right word
should have used it before. But I think its inconsistent with a tight-leaning. Strikes are going back and forth between being called a ball or a strike, but no balls are being called strikes at some point.
by Caseys Kiss of Death on Apr 27, 2008 5:41 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I would agree.
But it wasn’t very tight on the first strike to Izturis. That ball is an inch or two off the plate on gameday. And to be fair to Granderson, the called strike three wasn’t really inside a tight zone either.

The difference between Jeter and Garret
for their careers, anyway (aside from ‘intangibles’ and ‘captain’ bullshit) is, statistically, a couple hundred walks.
I wouldn’t vote for one and not the other on the grounds that one walked a lot more. Especially with Garret having a slight edge in power and a great edge in fielding.

But aside from that, Weaver has two runs to show for it, vs. Verlander’s 6. Sounds about right.

Something tells me that Miller
was bullshitting about knowing the Del Taco.

He was leading in to the Taco Bell advertisement. Any one will do.

I was on the road for a few innings
Had to listen to the national radio guys…my fav line on there was that “Napoli is not a patient hitter who frequently swings at the first pitch…” Hmmmmmm

assuming the Angels don't score
Shields should be out there for the 9th. Lockdown a 4-2 roadtrip against two of the better teams in the AL

We still could see Arredondo
It’s not going to be a save situation to start the bottom of the ninth.

good idea!

I still remember
watching the world series at home, furious that I couldn’t see my team in person because the cast of that 70s show needed to be on hand to pay attention for three innings until the camera crews had shot enough promo spots for them.
And man, that Mudcrutch album sounds apocalytpically bad.
