All right everybody! This thread is for you crazy baseball fanatics like me who just love america's national pastime. Start talking baseball! All right I'll go first. In today's news: the Texas Rangers destroyed the LA Angels 18-5 and on left fielder Garret Anderson's 33rd birthday! GA went deep in the third for good measure. Tomorrow the Halos head to Kansas City to take on the Royals for a three game series. The Angels will send righty Paul Byrd to the hill tomorrow at 5:10 Pacific Time against Royals right-hander Runelvys Hernandez.

What is with Santana :P The kid either goes complete game shutout or gives up 50 runs.

Mickey Man · 06-30-2005, 05:45 PM

you guys are lucky, you can watch your favourite game Mine is on STRIKE. I like baseball but my life is pretty much all HOCKEY

Almandot, I went to that game May 23, against the White Sox and I saw Ervin Santana pitch his first ever complete game shutout of his career. It was a lot of fun. Ersty made two great catches by reaching into the Sox dugout and snaring two foul balls. The sad thing is that Vladdy was not in that game. He was on the DL. Juan Rivera played right field. GA was the DH in that game and Jeff Davanon was the left fielder. So I have to say that Santana still has a ways to go but I think that he become a great pitcher.

The thing is I live in San Diego now. I lived in Orange County for like 12-14 years. Our Fox Sports Net channel down here is channel 29. Whenever the game is supposed to be on they always brodcast Totally Nascar or The Best **** Sports Show Period. That makes me mad, so the only time I get to watch my Angels is when the game is brodcast on ESPN or ESPN2. I am going to beg my parents to order MLB Extra Innings so I can watch my team more often. Hopefully.

My top three teams:

1. WASHINGTON NATIONALS! Numero uno in the national leauge. Truly a stunning yet pleasing occurrance in the Washington, D.C. area.

2. BOSTON RED SOX! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck! Yankees suck!

3. LOS ANGELES DODGERS! Great team, great stadium, great city, superb hot dogs. What can I say? Dodgers are awesome.

PeoplemoverMatt · 07-03-2005, 05:33 PM

Go Dodgers! Maybe one day we'll have something to cheer about!

Man BF some crazy weather down there in KC today but we still got in for we got thru 5 innings. Washburn pitched well and gave up 4 hits I think. GA got an RBI double. Took them forever to reach a decision though. Big Congrats to GA Vladdy and Bart for making the All-Star Team!! Yeah Go Angels!!!!

Baseball Fanatic · 07-04-2005, 01:04 AM

Backing the Backs & Dodging the Dodgers! JK PeoplemoverMatt! Just glad my team won today!

PeoplemoverMatt · 07-05-2005, 01:32 AM

Oscar Robles' 5 hits and a clutch 2RBI hit by Chin-Feng Chen lead the Blue Crew to an extra inning victory tonight in Denver. Hopefully this will spark the team into better play into the future, but I doubt it. A 12-2 start sparked us into a 27-40 run though tonight. Division is still up for grabs though & our boys can get her done.
