4-3 win; 4 Rbis on 2 HRs

Vlad!

K-brothers rule! (Kendrick & Kotch)

Hmm

Kotch & GA definitely helped keep this one under control.
Especially Kotch me thinks…

Vlad is alway snice though.

Chart it up! Game on!

Vlad.

Defense doesn’t help without 4 runs, all thanks to Vladdy.

Has to be Vlad. But S-Rod gets a nice shout-out defensively.

Kotch and GA

also deserve a defensive panther nod, but Vlad is THE panther.

Surely it's Vlad

Soth said in the paper Sean was the reason defensively we won last night.

Tonight belongs to Big Daddy Vladdy.

Vlad

If for no other reason than an appeasement to karma, that he’ll return to the Impaler we know.

No vote on panther

Did not see the game all the way and voting for POTG without seeing the whole game is flat out pussy

Sounds like Vlad and S-Rod both had great games though …

Panther=Vlad

says Fangraphs, and it’s not close, though Frankie gets Lieutenant Panther for his save.

Witty .sig goes here.

Yeah, he had a couple.

Plus one almost-had it from Figgy that he made a great try on despite the chop block from Stairs.

Strike that!

Look at the box score. We scored 4 runs on 4 hits.
2 hits by Vlad, all 4 RBI by Vlad.

It’s Vlad. The defence is supposed to do its job.

Nice sucky win for Judy (I eat up innings) Garland though, if you’re a stat freak.

From the Department of Redundancy Department, the last time the Angels took a road series from Toronto was 2002. Just so you know.

any time a guy has a multi hit game and drives in all of the runs panther is a must

Mind you ...

Would be nice to see Sean Rodriguez get a panth before he goes to the Bees when HK decides to stop smoking dope and reach …. I dunno … maybe 40 ABs for the year?

I was at the team store yesterday

and almost bought a 47 jersey, but couldn’t justify it to myself without seeing him play for most of the season.

Amen Rev

I graduated from CSUF with probably the lowest possible GPA allowable. 2.000000000001 something. But I only went to about 15 classes that I can remember.

The getting laid was easier to do, and easier to remember.

excuse me for being ignorant. I’ll do better next time Syllable Boy

More importantly...

Why is Naps batting in front of “all glove/not bat” Rodriguez? I’m tired of watching him get intentionally walked. When Naps is hot, he’s scary… they need to put him higher in the lineup to protect some of the other guys and avoid the no-brainer walks before he cools off again.

A fellow Skins fan!

Nice. After 8 years on the list I finally came up for season seats for 08-09. So stoked. Not so stoked about the price of flights these days…

Please go away Justin Speier. Your work here is done. And take Quinlan's half-inch fielding radius with you.

dang, dogg.

i don’t have that kind of money, being that i’m in college.

but WILL have season seats to one of my teams when i graduate.

Please give him one, maybe this first panther of the year will help him get rolling

Vladdy, of course

I always root for vlad, especially when he hits two homers in one night. Just imagine if we had even more outfielders like him:

Marcum

He kept up his fantastic hits/ip. About 3 hits for every five innings pitched.

Unfortunately, he ran into Awesome Vlad. He don’t care how good you are.

Picked one out of the dirt, and another one that almost hit him.

I guess that wasn’t awsome Vlad. It was just normal Vlad. He’s back to normal.

So, since Marcum pitched Awsomely, and Vlad was just normal, I have to go with Marcum for Panther.

Way to go Vlad Man.

Young Angels - Proof is in the consistency. But I'll take flashes for now.

I didn't see the game, but...

no mention in this thread about Frankie’s shut-down 9th? The dude has NINETEEN saves! Wow.

But, Vladdy is truly the panther of this game.
