Too Much, Too Late: Angels Pound Jays About the Face and Neck, 10-6

Final Score from the Skanky Old Dome: Angels 10, Blue Jays 6

It's all over but the Great Masshole Implosion of 2011, but surely the Chowdah Choke will have that much more entertainment value if we keep pummeling the competition like we did tonight. Joel Pineiro was good enough for government work (though not helped at all by Chopper's "Who Let the Doghouse Out" performance with inherited runners), but this game was toast after a five-run fifth that featured a signature three-run, swing-from-your-shoetops Jimmy McMuthafletchin' Jack from soon-to-be Rookie of the Year Mark Trumbo. And yeah, I don't know if he's the most valuable rookie, and I don't care, because it's 10:33 on the East Coast, papa's had some wine, and someone forgot to post a post-game post. DEAL WITH IT.

If the Boston Romneys go on with their expected debacle, that would leave us (moves lips, waves fingers, drinks wine) ... well shoot, 3.5 games back of the Wild Card, and 1.5 behind Tampa! The Sawx look terrible, and the Rays play the Yankees like 12 times in the next 5 days. We're still suckers still have hope! OK good night.
