PrintPanther of the Game: Mike Napoli
For the 2nd game in a row, the Angels served up a nominee for Victory-With-Least-Pride. The chances of Jon Garland making a postseason start - at least in the ALDS were likely diminished tonight. Oh well, the Soth can take his time deciding that although it will not seem to be as long as Garland takes in between pitches.
Speaking of the postseason, we are still ahead in the battle for home-field advantage and even better than that, one has to assume that the 4 American League clubs in contention for the 3 remaining post-season spots also have the aches, pains and strains that the Angel are once again nursing down the September stretch...
94 - 59 (2008 with 9 games left to play)
94 - 68 (2007)
95 - 67 (2005)
99 - 63 (2002)

Aybar should be considered
KO’d the only Rangers pitcher worth a damn, hit the ball well all night, and maybe most importantly made at least two phenomenal defensive plays that should have never been outs — that 9th inning carom jobbie & the flying splitsville double play with Nelson Cruz flying under his groin.
Hostility Abounds!
If GA wasn't so Lazy, I'd have something clever here.

Mike Napoli is the Panther of the game.
One single short of the cycle, HOMERUN, triple, and a double, caught 213 pitches behind the plate, and was the player of the game on the post-game show tonight.
RBIs I think.

Napoli for Panther!!
GREAT game for him, even though that all important CERA went up :P
seriously… when was the last time we had the same two guys go back-to-back in consecutive nights? Does Zu know?
Kotch would've had that.
Dondo: He stopped the insanity.
Too many panthers amongst the hitters. 15 runs; that’s impressive given the number of benchwarmers and Bees in the lineup.
Ain't no stoppin' us now. We got the groove!
hey infant....
cant find hostilehalos.com… where is it?

Hondo
I have to go with Mr. 1981, to hard to pick offensive player.
Minority Opinion: Me no likey win pick. Any chance we could go with a half dressed Jessica Alba instead?
Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.

i know i've said it once, but i'll say it again...
I LOVE NAPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he shoud play 120 games per year, at least.
he’s played less than half the games so far with 18hr and 40 rbi…
that equals out to MINIMUM 30 hr’s and 85 rbi’s.
he can bat .091 for all i care if he puts up those production numbers..
I LOVE NAPS. NAPS IS THE GUY.
"Life is a luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us from the beginning of consciousness to the end."
He is on a roll
