Hair Frosting Tips, Kangaroos, and another Halo victory
Jon Garland had 8 k's, Macier Izturis was the A's personal menace tonight, and Frankie had to make it a lil' to intense.
Panther: What are your thoughts? Mine, Macier and his wacky hair-do.
The disparity in win-oomph is too large to ignore over at fangraphs ...

I know this is lame, but I vote for a Co-Panther.
We don’t win without Judy and his 8 K’s, but we also don’t win without the offensive machine that is Mighty Mice.
The Hunt for a Red October ...and please keep telling Clutch to chill!
I say Garland -- 7 innings of shutout ball...
and fangraphs agrees with me

are you kidding me?
Garland gets the Panther all the way.
he pitched an incredible game! 8 Ks?? thats awesome.
Let Wood play!!!
8 strikeouts for our worst strikout pitcher means victory

hey..
what would you guys think about alternate black unis for the Angels?
Black jersey with red letters/white outline?
i think it would be cool
Let Wood play!!!
i disagree
The reason the A’s Black unis look so fucked up is that they are all wearing different colored teeshirts – they do not even look like a TEAM. Angel red touches on Black would be AWESOME!
wow
clearly i know nothing.
i honestly dont think the A’s ones are that bad.
whatever.
Let Wood play!!!
's'allright, dude.
If the Halos came out in those colors, people would actually think they would be badass.
I say Angels go All stirrups
haha
I Can See That Lit Up Halo All The Way In AZ.

what??
the sleeveless jerseys are awesome!
it makes me sad that we dont see those anymore…
Let Wood play!!!
Although..
I wouldn’t mind a black cap w/ a red A that they would wear on the road a’la the St. Louis Cardinals.
All Grey hat Red Halo

I'm gonna say Izzy, cause he deserves something for
jumpstarting the offense the last 2 games.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
guess giving up 2 isnt impressive anymore
having a weak offense the past month makes 5 seem like a breakout game while giving up 2 runs is failure.

Not a failure.
But not as panther, comparatively, as a leadoff homer plus scoring three runs.
~Till the Halo burns out...
i missed the game..........
but….....read the game threads…....so…....im okay with a garland, or izzy panther…....but im going Izzy today…....sorry Judith.
i root for teams that lack offense! go halos and bills!

Masher Izturis - nickname
Angels Defense. Angels Pitching. Get past that.

Garland by a good margin IMO
1 hit though 6 innings
Yea he gave up on opposite field homer in the 7th but with a 5 run lead at least he wasn’t walking people.
Judging from the Athletics Nation game wraps, they got Soth Balled
two nights in a row and still don’t even know what hit them.
lol.......
the frustration is seeping through my firewall…..

I laugh at the A's troll that was gloating about
their last sweep and how they were going to sweep us (it was in our game thread during the Angels’ last game in Sweepattle). Talk about a loser. The Angels already WIN THIS SERIES! SUCK ON THAT, TROLL!
"At some point, a veteran player will more often than not find his stroke. You just have to show them a little bit of patience."
Dorothy ...
with huge props again to the Boy King and Hondo. Kangaroo sandwich for Frankie
Don't call me Desmond
Gotta be Garland
It was awesome seeing all those A’s take strike 3 looking and then walking back to the dugout with their head hanging down low. A beautiful site way up close.
even with all the bitching and injuries and everything
the angels are tied for the best record in the MLB! who woulda thunk it during spring training! 39-24 and a .619 win pct. and thats with S-rod and his sweet 44 OPS+ starting the most games at 2B
I AM THOR, GOD OF THUNDER. BOW TO MY WILL AND MY HAMMER!
i would have to say Judith right now
with Kel going down…....hes stepped right in and done very well…...

A white knuckle save, but a save just the same
Judy followed the yellow brick road to 8 K’s, Izzy continued his leadoff dominance, and K-Rod kept the save in order. And all against the Fremont A’s.
YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF THE DARKSIDE.....
Can anyone think of another nickname other than Judy?
Wildly iconic child actor turned druggie turned mother of the preeminent fag-hag turned overdosee isn’t what I would call an inspiring nickname for our consistent pitcher.
In the words of AC/DC: We roll tonight... to the guitar bite... and for those about to rock... I salute you.
Too be honest, I really don't dig that nickname either.
It sounds like were all fans of a softball league, out of West Hollywood or Palm Springs ( not that there’s anything wrong with that ) .
YOU DON'T KNOW THE POWER OF THE DARKSIDE.....

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

i'd go with garland for panther
izzy’s not a bad alternative, though
Who goofed? I've got to know.
