I'm gonna say Figgs.
Gotta have baserunners to get 3 run HR’s, and Figgs was all over the basepaths. What a night, though.

Torii hit the big shot that got us our lead
He’s panther for starting it off right. Fangraphs agrees.

How to Read?
Not sure I understand how to read/interpret all that data, but if I understand correctly, Fangraphs says Torii by a big margin, followed by my pick (Rivera).
Loving the Fact
that GA and Howie combine for seven hits and they can’t crack the top five in the poll.
Good Times…
Gonna go Figgy
Man, this is like….it like my old daydreams back in school about how great it would be if the Angels were an elite team. Now its real…..and its fuckin’ awesome.

Panther is Figgy
Save of the Game goes to Oliver (and the ump). Given O’Day’s meltdown, this would’ve been much closer had the DP not occured.
You ever feel as if your mind had started to erode?
Big Juan
My theory: a 3-0 lead against the Yankees in the 4th inning is nothing. A 6-0 lead is entirely different, and completely changed the complexion of the game.
The act itself was not exceptional, nor was Rivera’s day as a whole, which is standard Panther criteria; however, that HR was the most significant moment of the game, as far as I’m concerned.
Juan Rivera garners my Panther vote.
Well said
If I hadn’t voted Figginator I’d agree.

Are the Angels peaking too soon?
Francisco Rodriguez: 190 career saves. 2 career Panthers, tied with Hector Carrasco.
Meh. Tex hasn't even started hitting yet.
This is just the offense waking up and realizing it’s a lot stronger than they thought it was. Heck, Naps missed the whole freakin’ month.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
And it ranks as one of the best months in team history. Coincidence? Discuss...
Francisco Rodriguez: 190 career saves. 2 career Panthers, tied with Hector Carrasco.
Well, then, Mr. Pythagoras must be very happy once again.

Would you believe we're still 7 wins over where we should be according to the
mighty triangle?

twas not snark. was serious consideration for discussion.
worrying about season mojo with 50 more games is stoopid.
Francisco Rodriguez: 190 career saves. 2 career Panthers, tied with Hector Carrasco.
They should throw a couple games, that way they don't peak.
Seattle I would like to thank you for sucking. It allows me to get back to my roots: Hating Fremont.
Kobe tell me how my ass tastes
If they win the first three aginst NY, Sosh will put in his GMJ/Willits/Q lineup.
Problem solved.
Francisco Rodriguez: 190 career saves. 2 career Panthers, tied with Hector Carrasco.
there should be an 'entire offense' panther option
everybody got a hit and everybody scored a run.
panthers, all of them were today.

WOW
Horrible calls by the umps tonight! I mean WOW!
Write to the Angels front office. Get Tim Salmon's number 15 retired!
No kidding!
That was a strike out of Abreu before he hit that bomb. And then the umps pulling that crap with Garland. Seems like the Yanks and Sux are always taking their sweet ass time between pitches. But oh well since when are the umps on our side anyways?

Too many PotGs

Only 35 comments on a WIN thread?
Let’s not get complacent fans. They certainly can’t run Joba the Hat out there 3 straight games so any drubbing of a Skank starter should be viewed as a potential drubbing of an October opposer.
everyone is having a celebritory brew........

Have 10 I say!
I’d like to thank the Buffalo Bills for Gregg Williams and London Fletcher. Was sad to say Two-Gs go.

Thank the Rams for London Fletcher...
the guy was undrafted, IIRC

Jobba the Hat
That is one of the best nicknames I have ever heard. Panther to you sir!

And in the 9th
Saved at least 2 runs and a rally. Fucks sake people Figgy by a mile.

This is actually getting friggin' rediculous:
BWood hit another one out tonight. Are there no pitchers left in AAA?
Damn!
D Mac is raking! Hard to believe he’s still sitting in AAA.

i saw an article that said that management thinks Wood is
just one winter ball season from sticking in the majors.
hopefully, that’ll happen this offseason.
i can’t believe he’s hitting almost .300.

Just finished watching the game.
3, Three-run dingers? Are you frigg’n kidding me? What were people saying about offense?
My Panther goes to Big Daddy. Just because it’s always nice to see your franchise player remind the World that you don’t want to wake up sleeping giants
Let no joyful voice be heard! Let no man look up at the sky with hope! And let this day be cursed by we who ready to wake... the K-Rod!
Garland
You saw how quick the Yanks can get back in it. He was dealing, and kept them from doing so. The offensive contributions were too many to narrow down.
White trashin' the 909
Figgy
GA became the first Angel with back to back four hit games since 1978.
A healthy GA is a good GA
Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.
