I can't stop watching Angel games cause of Ohtani but it always seems to leave me in a bad mood because they miraculously find a way to lose. Yeesh.

4 consecutive, 2 out, 2 strike hits...cannot make this stuff up.

I was watching the game today and was excited cause it looks like they were gonna win one again. I am sad now.

I think Charles Dickens said it best in Tale of Two Cities

“It was the best of times; it was the worst of times..."

Soooo.......... Dodgers? Giants? Padres maybe? might be a good time to buy "low" and wait for him to end up on a good team.

Strange that he challenged Adley with a fastball down the middle instead of risking the walk. There was only a runner on 3rd at the point. Don’t worry about giving up a walk off HR…just focus on the next batter. All of key hits came off pitches right down middle of plate. With this team seems like a lack of focus, situational awareness and they really need better hitters in 6-9 slots. They need to focus on getting better offensively instead of trying to draft a lot of pitchers and hope they pan out.

I decided not to buy the 2019 foilboard. I went with this instead

Welp not a great day for the Angels but it's always a joy to see Ohtani-san in person!

First-born son is named Camden 👍🏻 in part because of the park.

oldgoldy97 · 07-10-2022, 06:14 PM

Maddon was clearly the problem.

seanrs1 · 07-10-2022, 07:02 PM

Nice to see Ohtani be voted as an all star starter at DH and also be named to the team as a pitcher. Well deserved! Ohtani keeps on making history!

People actually put down their phone to watch when he's up to bat

And there's the reason why Yordan wasn't 'voted in' the ASG

What’s their record since he was canned?

These look so amazing in hand!!

GOAHTANI!!

This has probably been posted at some point but I haven't seen it in a long time...thought I'd post it in case anyone hasn't seen it before...19yo Ohtani pitching against MLB All Stars in 2014.

wow, what a blast from the past.
Altuve hits a single down the right field line against Ohtani to lead off this game (and their 1st matchup);
They will face each other again (8 years since that game in Japan) in tomorrow's game at Angels Stadium.

Trueblue · 07-13-2022, 08:38 PM

I'm finding it harder and harder to watch these Angel losses and drag myself to the stadium. Arte would get no money from me with how poorly built the team is.

But then I watch a few Ohtani clips and I find the willpower to show up. Let's go Sho!
