Final Score in Los Angeles of Anaheim: Angels 4, Red Sox 1
TBS Announcer Don Orsillo can pretend that every routine play the Red Sox made on Friday in Anaheim was going to be a difference-maker, but the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim showed up to play baseball in front of their fans, not fantasy ball. And play ball they did, beating Josh Beckett in a revenge match for his April smackfest. Slapping Josh's fat little chipmunk cheeks was the bottom end of the Angels order, highlighted by an Erick Aybar triple that also made Jacoby Ellsbury crawl around on the warning track, momentarily disabled at the base of the Nick Adenhart memorial mural.
Aybar's masterful stroke came after a base hit by starting 2B Maicer Izturis broke a 1-1 tie and scored Howie Kendrick from 2nd base - the first stolen base of the series came with Kendrick pinch-running for Vladimir Guerrero. Beckett should have been taken out after walking - YES... unintentionally WALKING Vladdy. Is Terry Francona even watching these games? But how cool is it that after a season of platooning in the infield, Izzy drives in Howie. Wow.
In 14.2 ALDS innings, Angels starters have suffered 6 hits from the vaunted Boston offense. On cue, infamous turncoat Dennis Eckersley sings the praises of Lackey and Weaver LIVE form the TBS studios in Atlanta... with David Wells interrupting to change his sox and jump on the Halo bandwagon.

Trolling is fun.
When trolls come here I think it’s hilarious. Interaction with the other fans is fun. It’s like ribbing your friend who likes the other team. I wasn’t vulgar. I wasn’t obscene. I gave a simple “We are gonna beat you” kind of statement and I get banned. That was totally weak.
Trolling is a stupid word for people who are taking blogging way too serious. I like rivalries. It’s part of the fun of liking a team. And besides I think it’s the first time I “trolled” a teams site. And with all the times I’ve seen Over the Monster over here talking smack, they were due a little ribbing.
But whatever. The P.C. Police are out in full force so I guess the internet is not as free as I thought.

they were silenced in their seats. They tried when youk got the double but they were silenced.
The parking lot was filled with Angels fans still using the Thundersticks and honking their car horns to LET’S GO ANGELS!!!!
It was so sweet.
It was LOUD AND PROUD. The last game I enjoyed this much was the 11-0 game agains Texas to clench. But this win was and still is SWEET.
One of the ushers told me that a BosDONE fan wanted the usher to make the Angels fan around them to stop using the thundersticks. They said it was too loud. And they don’t use those in boston. The usher told them they are not in Boston… HAHAHAHA. I was telling the usher we don’t want rally towels… we make noise – our team feeds off it and so we will use it.
I wonder if Boston will have “rally towels” or something that makes noise?

Why not hire announcers from both teams? If you’re going to hire a team’s announcers, make it balanced. It could lead to some great dialogue and much better information. It would never work with homers like Kay or Hawk Harrelson, but I could see Rory in there with Orsillo.

yessir TBS has no business broadcasting baseball games especially in the postseason
at least put more effort into it especially with ur camerawork
hell even ur counterpart TNT handles basketball games much better
if u cant do it right than give up ur rights to fox or ESPN and have em do it right….

Just got back from the game!
My ears are still ringing…holy crap it was LOUD. Loved it! The rally sticks are perfect to annoy Boston fans.
Aybar’s triple was soooooo great. But like last night, it’s too hard to choose a panther between Aybar and Weaver.
Great pitching, great defense, timely hitting. Let’s keep it rolling on into Boston!

I was representing up in 507. THE PLACE WAS ROCKING!!!!
I was in front of a BoSox fan… She wasn’t a chowd — since early ’90s. Gave her a little respect, but then got on with the game.

I had 2 BoSux fans behind me...
…they were OK. Their conversation early in the game had a built-in assumption that they were destined to win…“Weaver is barely getting over 90 (MPH) sooner or later we will catch up with him…Beckett is pitching his usual strong game…” and so on. Their conversation was not so confident later in the game.
My wife jokingly turned to them after Aybar’s triple for a high 5. One of ’em gave her a real nasty look. We laughed about it on the drive home.

Didn’t lose my voice cause the Thundersticks made enough noise. And it did annoy the boston fans. But that’s just too bad cause they aren’t in Boston. If they don’t like it they can go to boston and watch their team play.

Great game...
Last night’s Panther should have been Torii, but tonight WTY is the choice. Last night we needed the big hit (oh, sweet relief!), and tonight we needed a stopper.
The dude sitting next to me was giving it to Ortiz (Papi could hear him for sure) with both barrels. Weight, skills, ’roids, everything. The row in front of us had 6 Sox fans, and not only did they not get even slightly upset, they laughed at some of it.
Very cool of them.

TBS's gun
is definitely ratcheted up a couple notches at least. The stadium gun seemed accurate. He was sitting 88 – 90, but good movement and great location. He did touch 92 a couple times, but he wasn’t throwing harder than he usually does.

Hells Yeah
2-0 and loving it. STill one more though so deal not done yet. Enjoying the moment for sure though. Lackey and Weave = Studs.
On a side note (I haven’t been on the game threads much this year while watching games so this may have been discussed at length already (or not) – if so, my apologies)……..is it just me or has Juan Rivera gotten more and more GAish as the season has gone on? I know there was the pop fly in Boston at the end of Sept, but even these last 2 games it seems like he hasn’t run hard down the line when he could have put more pressure on the throw. Like today on the hard grounder to Lowell…it just looked like he was jogging when he could have maybe forced an errant throw (see game 1) after the ball hit Lowell on the hand.

Beckett didn’t hit him on purpose, it was a freakin curve ball. And Ramirez didn’t hit Torii on purpose the night before. These are the playoffs. Both teams want to win. Putting runners on base over some bullshit “code” is that stupidest fucking thing any pitcher on either side can do. Just win.

Ptchers Did Their Job!
Comparing this season with the previous ones which were quite disappointing is that Angels pitchers held the other team down. In season’s past, it was the other way around with Boston holding down our hitters. Now, hopefully, we can end this on Saturday. We need to! Last thing we need is to give Boston the hope that they can come back! Go Angels! Finish the job!
