"Series" Thread (Games 67-68): June 10-11 @ Angels

6/10 7p: Hyun-Jin Ryu vs. Canning
6/11 7p: Kenta Maeda vs. Peña

Series win against the Giants in San Francisco! Max Muncy talking smack to Ashley Madison! And Joe Kelly pitching an inning of no-run, 3 K ball (Saturday)! What could possibly go wrong?

Gotta love this summer so far. Part 2 coming next.

Ryu catches Pulgas daydreaming at first base to end the first inning.

Night Moves with a double after Bellingers bunt out

2-0 Dodgers. Taylor 2 -run nipple to left

Steve Sax said...

3-1 LA through two

Steve Sax said...

sorry, to be clear: LA 3, ANA 1

Angels scored with a solo shot by Kole Calhoun. Verdugo was tracking it in center field, and went pretty hard into the padding as he appeared to misjudge how much space he had left. Hope he's okay. It wasn't Bryce Harper speed, but it was pretty fast.

Steve Sax said...

Dodgers scored their third run when Hernandez doubled home Taylor in the second. Ball was in Puello's glove on a diving attempt, but it bounced out. Kiké gets some luck

Steve Sax said...

And, Floro coughs up the lead in the bottom of the seventh. Two-run Trout HR

QuadSevens said...

Joe Kelly in for the 8th. He’s given up one and the bases are still loaded.

QuadSevens said...

Joe Kelly is wild wild wild! 5-3 Angels now.

Steve Sax said...

what the hell is Kelly's problem

Steve Sax said...

he's got a 7.71 ERA and he's a train wreck this year

QuadSevens said...

Joe Kelly walks 3 and strikes out 3 while giving up 2 runs.

spank said...

Joe Kelly is not good

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Steve Sax said...

Russell Martin and Chris Taylor work long counts into base hits to start the inning.

And then Kike lines out on the third pitch of his AB. And Joc Pederson ends the game GIDPing on the third pitch of his AB. Joc ends 0-for-5 with a GIDP. Nice job, Joc!

you too, Joe Kelly!

Steve Sax said...

Kelly's two runs came with only one ER, and he did get three Ks in the inning. So his ERA improved...to 7.59

QuadSevens said...

On the plus side, Dodger fans helped set an Angel Stadium attendance record. 45,477 in attendance last night. Not even the Angels World Series games hosted more fans!

GAME 2

Meada has a crappy first inning. 5-0 Angels.

Steve Sax said...

Now it’s 5-1! If this game were to 15 innings, we would tie!

QuadSevens said...

Maeda had a worse inning than Meada. He’s settled in some now too.

Steve Sax said...

And, we are done. 5-3 loss, solo shots from Muncy (2x) and Freese.

Russell Martin grounds to short with the tying run on base. Yay.
