Angels Win in Cleveland Weaver Squeaker

Final Score at Progressive Field in Cleveland: Angels 2, Indians 1
Jered Weaver pitched 7 innings of 1-run ball, walking two, allowing 5 hits and striking out 5 Indians. At 113 pitches, Mike Scioscia elected to bring in Scott Downs for the 8th, a good decision that led to a 14-pitch scoreless frame.
The Angels got all of their scoring from the bat of Mark Trumbo, whose 2-out, 2-run double was almost over the wall. Indians manager Manny Acta had elected to intentionally walk Howie Kendrick to get to the rookie slugger. It backfired as Bobby Abreu and Kendrick were soon waltzing across the plate.
In a ridiculously nailbiting 9th inning, a rare 4-2-3 bases loaded Double Play helped out closer Jordan Walden immensely after three cheap singles had loaded the bases. With the infield in, it was a bang bang force-out at the plate Kendrick to Jeff Mathis and then a quick, precise throw to Trumbo at 1B to retire Matt LaPorta, the lone Indian to blemish Weaver with a solo HR in the bottom of the 7th inning. With the first two outs finally recorded, last night's Tribe hero Jason Kipnis struck out on a 1-2 high heat 99 MPH fastball from Walden - his 24th Save of the season had landed in Primo's mitt and the Halo was lit tonight.

Gave Trumbo the POTG -
1) I expect much of Weave these days
2) Without Trumbo, we lose.
Unreal 9th. Can we swap with Downs?

Of course, but it's like talking about a no hitter during a game.

CC gets the Cy Young. After all, he pitches for the ZOMG YANKEES!!! And he's got more wins.
Of course if WTY had the MFY offense behind him, he’d have 4 or 5 more wins.
If the Halos don't care about the way they play, then why should I?
Weaver no doubt has 80% of the current votes.
A sub-2 ERA guy is a lock IMO.

go Twins
This team looks really good right now (7/9/11)
Not giving up yet... but man this season stinks right now (6/9/11)
to be fair to mathis, I really do think he beat the throw to third on the fielders choice.
bad choice, but if the ump had called it right, I think the runner was late. I don’t know if the ump got confused thinking callaspo needed to tag him or something, cuz for a force out, the ball beat the runner.
He was out...
but it was really, really close. Given the Angels luck so far in this series, I think the ump went with the team with the momentum.
I love this team.
by Downing Rules on Jul 26, 2011 6:52 PM PDT up reply actions
i think you just called it right there. I think the ump made the call based on the smartness of the decision to throw it.
btw to below, on the replay i saw, the ball hit the glove a whole frame before the foot hit the base. remember, its a force out.
I know it was a force out
I think his foot got in before the throw arrived. If not, it was so ridiculously close that we can’t really complain. Thankfully, JW got his shit together.

Exactly. Today, on some show, the question was, "Who would you want to pitch one game in a key situation (or something like that)?
Weaver, Verlander, or CC? All three answered CC
Yeah, as if that career playoff record is something for the ages...
4.66 ERA,
83 hits,
11 of them home runs,
38 walks,
against 71 strikeouts,
all across only 77.1 innings pitched.
Mike Scioscia has zero credibility to get mad at anyone, or anything. He is the reason Jeff Mathis plays baseball.
Usually the result
of being trotted out there on 3 days rest (or less). At least that’d be my guess.

about eight years
but living in Japan while I did inhibit. They have vending machines, and some 7-11’s sell 24/7.
But that’s what you do in Hawaii when your young. Work in construction. Get paid every Friday. Go out Friday night until the bars close. Head off to Waikiki, and the hotels which never close, or open earlier than the bars which open at 8am.
No kidding.
Before I was laid off from my construction job, I was a scaffolder out in Camp Pendleton. I was getting paid 31.50 an hour, 8 hours a day monday thru friday. And I was 20 years old (2009).. Man was I making bank for my age. The drive sucked though, from Fontana to Camp Pendleton everyday and back. Then I heard from my boss and other employees that we had a huge job site out in Hawaii and they were paying $74 an hour!!!!
I wanted to be transferred so bad hahaha.. I know the cost of living is high out there but damn.. thats a LOT of moolah..
And the Cleveland crowd will be even quieter than it has been the past two nights
If that’s even possible
Not that anyone gives a shit......nor am I defending his AWWWFUL plate appearances
but Mathis was batting over 500 in our last playoff appearance….the guy was a double machine….clutch is what we would call it….everyone seems to forget that…

Did someone in your family write this?
Scioscia says Mathis is one of the Angels’ most valuable players. With Ervin Santana struggling, guess who catches him? Mathis. The Yankees didn’t win their first WS in the 90’s until Joe Girardi joined the team. Mathis is that kind of catcher.
No. But it does sound like something a couple of my uncles and cousins would say.

When I point out he isn’t any better statistically than Naps, or Conger or Wilson he talks about intangibles.
I pointed out to him the other day, if he continues talking such nonsense, how are we going to know when he’s senile. He didn’t find it funny.

Terribly ironic.
My uncle actually does know his stuff, but he’s very old school when it comes to baseball. He’s not a huge fan of newer stats, but much like Mr. Spencer, cites Jeffy’s cERA as proof that Premium is a good catcher. Along with his athleticism. I’ve given up trying to argue with him. I just smile and look at my uncle after every K, pop-up and GIDP. The countless bad throws to CF or the wrong base in pick off attempts. Surprisingly i’m his favorite nephew. or so he says.

Good point. Although I'd hate to see Bourjos go.

Do we even a farm deep enough to deplete for this so called ‘big-bat’ we need? Also, selling the farm for bull pen help isn’t going to jump start us to a 4.5 runs per game average. But what do I know.

Ian McShane blew my mind

and agree about the retroactive frustration, I just watched it a few months back and became angry about the ending.
The fight between Dan and Cpt. Turner in the thoroughfare was epic, as was just about every scene with Jane.

Incredible
McShane and the writers actually turned his character from an overwhelming villain into a heroic underdog in a few dozen episodes. Hearst vs. Swearengen might be the greatest Western rivalry I’ve ever seen, and it didn’t even have to come to a duel.
agree, Swearengen's character arc over the 3 seasons was excellent
I read that originally Swearengen was supposed to be played by the guy who played Cy Tolliver, but that guy got sick at the time the show was starting, so they went with Shane instead. what a stroke of luck.
I also enjoyed the amount of rage Timothy Olyphant was able to purvey in several scenes just from a look. Between his work on Deadwood and the show Justified, I’m a big fan of his now.

Somebody on some team will fill out a form and send it into the MLB office. And somebody in that office will open the letter and read the form and assemble a trio of bureaucrats. And those bureaucrats will review the tape and get inspired. And they will then contact the Umpire’s Union and submit another form notifying them of a complaint. The Umpires Union will assemble three lawyers to review the forms and review the tape. They will then file a response form giving MLB a big FU. The MLB will then respond to the originating team on yet another form that the protest has been reviewed, and adjudicated satsifactorily, and that the this event will go into the permanent file.

Top 10, anyway.
We still got Denkinger. We still got a blown perfect game. We still got Pershitsky’s playoff strikeout. We still got Jeffrey Maier.
Mike Scioscia has zero credibility to get mad at anyone, or anything. He is the reason Jeff Mathis plays baseball.
My mistake. The third worst call. Naps is the second worst. Galarraga's "perfect" game was the Worst. Call. Ever.
If the Halos don't care about the way they play, then why should I?
Meals' explanation of that terrible call:
Meals provided an explanation of what he saw on the play, which began with Scott Proctor hitting a grounder to Pirates third baseman Pedro Alvarez whose throw to the plate easily beat Lugo.
Meals’ explanation:
"I saw the tag, but he looked like he oléd him and I called him safe for that. I looked at the replays and it appeared he might have got him on the shin area. I’m guessing he might have got him, but when I was out there when it happened I didn’t see a tag.
"I just saw the glove sweep up. I didn’t see the glove hit his leg."

Great job, ump
You’ve made a fantastic case for why you shouldn’t be fired and replaced with a robot who works for free.
EPIC #'s watch...

I think you are on to something there.
Mathis has been confusing his batting average with his CERA, thinking the lower it gets, the better he looks to big Mike.
A wise man does not need advice and a fool won't take it.
I know I'm late to this party, but what a travesty of a call that was
The first time I watched it I figured I was watching the wrong play because there was no way the ump was going to call that guy safe.
Defending maligned chants since 2009
And I thought we were screwed badly
When the ump blew that call for the Angels vs Dodgers game when Bourjos threw out Dee Gordan at the plate. Hell no, this is 20 times worse. To think about all my b!tching and moaning the next week for that call.. it compares nothing to this insane call.
