Hey, it's happening now. :lol

:lol Padres handing them Houston Street.

I can't see Oakland keeping up the pace. I can see Angels keeping up the pace.

sup.
Numb Nutts uses the bullpen properly and we win 2-1.
Think you could have done that the night before, Skosha? 3-1 lead over Scherzerer and dipstick tries to milk Richards beyond an obvious crack up.

[TheMACHINE]

ooo...I should change title to FIRST Wildcard Winning...lol

[Fabbs]

^ you may have to change the title again.

The Angles suffered a major blow when their best pitcher Garrett Richards blew out his knee in a game with the Red Sox.
They lost another pitcher last week Tyler Skaggs, to Tommy John surgery.

I had Richards in both my fantasy leagues - this blows...

[TheMACHINE]

we need someone to fill innings.

Weaver over Lester.
Nice.

Bush league by the Angels giving Seattle a free win last night. If the Angels keep putting those AAA scrubs out there, Seattle will have an easier time making the Wild Card. BS.

2 starting pitchers out with injury.
The "scrubs" went 8 innings of shutout ball.
Jepson pitched the 9th and gave up all three runs. He is a regular. 6 years in majors.

Seattle would be a cakewalk ALDS match up for the Angels tbh

1 - 1 bottom 8th nobody out. Lights Out Huston Street ready to close if Angels take the lead.

C Cron doubled to left.
C Cowgill ran for C Cron.
C Iannetta flied out to center,

C Cowgill out at third. 1 1
Skosha with his signature over aggressive baserunning which leads to silly outs.
The flyball was not hit deep at all, outfielder got a total running start. No it was not some great throw, in fact the throw was off line. He was still out by a mile.
No Jamstone i do not blame everything on Skosha, but as i stated he has been pulling this crap for 8 years.
Then there was this beauty strategy move. Lets see, we caught fire and won the division by the entire team contributing and the atmosphere being an overall spirit of TEAM. This guy keyed winning tonight, that guy the next night. No prima donna crap.

-Poof- Buzzkill.

Not blaming Hamilton. Am the guy who put him in and took out Spirit.

Only advantage the Angels have over the Royals is offense. But the starting pitching, bullpen, defense, and base-running are on the Royals side. The Royals won the first two games with their 3rd and 4th starters on the road.

[Fabbs]

Jered Weaver
7 ip
2 earned runs off 3 hits total.
2 - 2 tie when he left game.

Shoemaker
6 ip
0 earned runs.

And they're the Angels 1st and 2nd starters.

Here's the Royals 3rd and 4th starters:

Vargas - 6 innings - 2 runs

Ventura - 7 innings - 1 run

After that is where the Royals advantage of bullpen, defense, and base-running took over.

I guess Street needs to improve on his 0.00 ERA.

You think Skosha sending Ianetta from 2B to 3B on a shallow flyball beyond the shortstop is great defense by KC? No.
I do agree in Game 1 their outfield D was nails.
