  1. Angels winning meaningful games

    Ward stays and contributes

    Angels leapfrog teams

    Yall said it wasn’t happening

  2. A nice and easy low-stress win (after Kikuchi got out of that long inning). What is this feeling? 😂

  3. Folks the rays subreddit is in full meltdown and I went over there praising how much I like Ian Seymour and they were all “at least you have Trout” and that perspective hit me like a freight train

  4. Was only able to catch the first when Kikuchi started off a little iffy, a few Angels hits on the radio, and then watched the final 3 batters and let me tell you I was stoked to see that last out! Let’s keep it going! Saw some Angels in the outfield too in the 9th yea boys!

  5. 2 straight wins when I go. Going again next Monday versus the dodgers and the Monday after that versus the reds. LTBU!!

  6. Maybe with Jo Adell moving back to RF will make him more comfortable. That HR tonight and smile is a good sign the June Adell may be back!
