  2. *former* #1 overall draft bust and *future* HOFer mickey moniak showing hes the best to ever do it

  3. I’m glad we won so that I can laugh at this because it’s honestly the funniest pitching line in the world:

    #0.1 IP | 2 H | 1 R | 1 ER

  5. the umpire was historically bad tonight but we take those. also barria and silseth were lights out great outings from those two

  9. Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you. Imma let you ride the bench…

    But MICKEY MONIAK IS THE GREATEST LEFT FIELDER OF ALL TIME. OF ALL TIME.

  14. Beautiful win. Angels have some different energy lately. Moniak Magic?

  15. Devo and Silseth did a great job saving the bullpen for the rest of the series

  21. Mckenzie Matthew Moniak

    Also Trout and Ohtani 0 for 6 as the angels won 2-1 reverse Tungsten arm O’Doyle

  26. Great outing from our pitching tonight (minus Loup)! I hope Moniak keeps this up he has been incredible so far this season. Great game against a good team, winning feels good!

  29. Mickey Moniak is not only an angel that plays for the Angels, but a guardian angel created by God to bless and guide this team to victory.

  30. Erica didn’t mention Loup in the post game interview when she talked about the pitching LOL

  31. I love this team. Never have I ever said anything bad about them. We may never lose again!!

  34. What a team win. If Silseth can be reliable out the pen and Barria keeps putting out performances half as good as this this, the Angels have the depth to go on a positive run until the All Star break and beyond. Cautiously optimistic.

  38. Did we just find our 6th starter, our starting left fielder, and our backup closer? Here me out, even loup pitched decent enough.

  40. LOS ANGELES MONIAKS OF ANAHEIM

    Shoutouts to the bullpen. They were so fucking solid. Someone make the “Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, not you, Thank you” meme for our bullpen. They’ve been amazing these past few series.

  42. Chase Silseth is bringing that real psychopath reliever energy and I’m here for it.

  43. Well guys we did it, we’re finally better than an AL East team (Blue Jays)

  44. So proud of Mickey. I remember last season coming from the Phillies he had a ton of potential and when he hurt his hand I saw tears of frustration. Look at him now. Nothing but well desrved accolades. Good for this Encinitas kid.

  45. Red Sox fan here. If you guys are gonna beat us, can you at least make it because Ohtani hit like 4 homeruns? Frickin love that guy.

  46. DAWGS:
    Mickey Moniak 💰, Jaime Barria, Chase Silseth, Chris Devenski, Brandon Drury

    DOG:
    Aaron Loup

  49. In love with that Phillies trade! Thank you Phillies. Moniak + O’Hoppe = 🐐🐐
