The game started off with the Angels grabbing a quick run in the 1st. But then in the 3rd, after Teixiera gets a ball to the arm... a Robinson Cano single allows him the opportunity to score. And despite the plate being half open, Teixiera decides to dig into Bobby Wilson, and knock him out completely (Oh, and don't forget to touch home base again afterwards). Bobby Wilson sustained a concussion and an injury to his left ankle as a result of the play. Got to hope it's not as bad as it looked... As for Teixiera... well, the comments are open for you to speak your mind about that...

Then again, perhaps this lit a fire under the Angels as they came right back to match the Yankees 3 runs, with 3 of our own! Unfortunately, that 1 run lead quickly disappeared after a Swisher HR. After that... we got an HBP rally, A pair of wtf-how-was-that-not-a-strikeout-pitch ump calls, and a pair of satisfying Ks to Teixiera. Not much. But lets give some props to Jepsen and Rodney for throw 2 innings of shutout ball!

Action picked up again after we get to the 8th! Hideki Matsui comes in, gets a well hit single. What goes with a hit single? Some more KOWBELL! Kendry Morales pulls through in the clutch and hits a 2 run Home Run to pull the Angels into the lead.

9th inning calls for Fuentes to get his revenge. How about we do this right this time?

Not only did Fuentes say yes, he did it without the drama! Fuentes shuts the Yankees down in the 9th, to chalk up another win. Light it up!

We had a rollickng GAME THREAD and GAME THREAD 2 - check the roll call after the poll...
