PrintPhys and Hud had this list up on the screen tonight during the bottom of the 4th or top of the fifth. I missed most of it but was hoping someone caught it and could post it in the comments?
it went something like:
- Angels Welcome Torri Hunter
- Torii's Walk Off Grand Slam
- Texeira slams Yankees
- Aybar...
- Yada Yada
If someone can post it, i'm curious how everyone felt about it, i.e., if it really did capture the best moments, and if not, what it lacked (what you thought were the best moments so far).

I thinkit is from the ANgels site
You can vote on it there.
I think the Torii Walk-off Grand Slam is hard to top.
I guess it is just an FSN thing
a chance for Steve Physioc to rebroadcast his limited broadcasts from this season…

I'm not seeing it on their site
And i’ve been looking all over it.
Agreed though, on the TH slammer. I would be surprised if 5 of the 10 in top 10 weren’t TH feats.
I don't know if it is on the Angel's website
but i’d have to go with the Boston Red Sux sweeps.

Definite high point of the regular season...
hope it gets topped in the post season.

The Magic of DVR...
1. Welcome to L.A. Torii Hunter
2. Hunter robs Mariners
3. Texiera slams the Yankees
4. The speed of Willits
5. Power Surge
6. Aybar in a pinch vs. Red Sox
7. Torii tames Texas twice.
8. K-Rod’s on top – sets single-season rec.
Francisco Rodriguez: 2006 to Present: 145 saves. 5 Panthers. As fabulous as Pride, Romero, Gregg, Budde and Dino Ebel combined.
Phyzz corrects #6 as "actually against the Phillies" on the audio track.

And they appear to be in chronological order
Because the Hunter catch over the Mariners was pretty early — they were still sort of in the race at that point in time. Remember, Hunter ended the game with that catch and jogs in to the mound celebration with his right hand pointing skyward?

nay
the speed of willits was before we got Tex, if it’s the one i’m thinking of…
was that the one where Reggie scored from 2nd on a sac. bunt, or something?
Kotch would've had that.

Yeah, that was balls
I’m not sure it was a bunt, but I remember the 1st baseman double clutched like he couldn’t believe Willits was going for home.
Shine on, luminous panthers!

You guys are right...

Aybar drove in Willits (from 2nd) on an INFIELD SINGLE! Amazing. It was the nail in the A’s season for 2008.

That should be in there for sure.

Prior to the graphic, they gave 2 video reviews.
One was Mathis’ 6 RBI day. I forget the other. So the announcers spoke about a Top 10, but the online voting is only about a Top 8.

Morales - Naps - Wood Back-to-Back-to-Back Home Runs takes #1

i dunno about number 1
but it’s top 3, for sure.
those are the 3 guys that i would really LOVE to see hit back to back to back homers!
Kotch would've had that.

Dondo hosing the fans was awesome,
and hosing the opposition all year. He is really a key to this year’s success. Imagine if we had had Bootcheck all season instead.
Shine on, luminous panthers!

How about our number 5 and 6 starters making the all-star team!!!

lackey-escobar-garland-weaver
saunders-moseley-santana?
so 6 and 8?
Exceeding expectations is less a matter of luck than possession of certain assets.
by anaheim angels on Sep 19, 2008 3:23 PM PDT up reply actions
i think Moseley was number 8
Lackey
Escobar
Weaver
Garland
Saunders/Santana
was how is was supposed to play out.
Kotch would've had that.

Tex hitting the grand slam vs the Yankees...
if Mathis, et al wouldn’t have thrown it all away. I was there…I was in shock
GA GA he's the man, if he can't do it, no one can
Hula Dula stealing that homer...one of the greatest catches I've ever seen
Bryan Harvey- king of the 'Stache
Ummmm
Why are there only 8 moments in the Top 10??
We saving some slots for the postseason or something??
