Erick Aybar Triples twice; Angels win again

by scottnak on Sep 6, 2009 2:15 PM PDT in Postgame Report Comment 22 comments

Final Score: Angels 7, Kansas City 2

The Angels finally found a way to get some runs going when their starting pitcher, Joe Saunders, throws another great game. Saunders got into a bit of trouble in the 6th, but Jason Bulger comes in and takes care of a bases loaded jam (OK, he might've contributed to that due to an error, but the point is it got taken care of). And of course, converting 4 double plays is also nice too.

On top of that, offensively, Erick Aybar was able to TRIPLE not once, but twice in the game!

With this win, the Angels have taken all 9 games so far against the Royals this season. As well as cushioning the AL West lead to 5.5!

Tomorrow's game is also an 11:10 AM start time!

Nice pic of Hokie

Admiral for POTG though … played great SS as always, two three-baggers. I think he might have taken the lead for the most tripling SOB on the Angels this season from Desmond.

Don't call me Desmond!

I have become a total Erick Aybar convert this season

This guy is like the second coming of Luis Aparicio, only he can hit! … I hope he’s not hurt.

Geez Rev, you are a popular guy over at LSB............

I believe he was responding to a Ranger fan who said..........

he wasn’t going to watch the team for the next week……

EYE-bar!

Grrrr

Or is Kendry perhaps the one who needs to sit?

Must be something about me the Angels offense loves.

I go see them in person, the offense gets it in gear. And yes, that IS where I’ve been all day. I hate the drive to KC. Met up with Zu, he should have some interesting pictures.
