  16. Holy shit 2 of our 3 wins so far are shutout games…that’s pretty awesome.

  17. Great job! Gotta stay consistent. Soriano is ace. See ya tomorrow! 

  19. LTBU!!! Soriano looking so good so far. Thank you Ohoppe for looking better today too lol.

  22. 🎶 Go Angels go

    Go Angels go

    Hey Chicago, what do you say?

    Angels are gonna win today 🎶

  23. Great outing from Soriano, really hope this year is his breakout season. He’s always shown flashes of brilliant 6 scoreless inning games or 5 run 1 innings. He looks to be a more consistent this year.

  24. Good to see Logan getting those runs in, guy needs his confidence back and that was a step in the right direction

  25. 4-3 road trip to open the season sure does sound nice right about now, let’s win the series tomorrow!!

  28. Soriano carrying this team with his hip and arm in 44 degrees Chicago weather

    That’s why he’s the goat

  33. Soriano is showing ace stuff but I’m happy to see Silseth back. Hope he can follow Detmers path, get some confidence in relief and maybe make it back to a starting role.
