Carlos "Cookie" Carrasco vs Michael Lorenzen. A late one, kids, 10:07 first pitch, so get that nap in today.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2022 04:57 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

In Lorenzen, the Angels probably have the 2nd best hitting pitcher in baseball too-- not that it will matter. But he used to hit a lot of bombs as a Cincinnati relief pitcher

Dad and I use to stay up for these

Gotta say, I'm a big fan of the angels' city connect unis.

What's good about watching this game, I was just thinking, is getting to see Mike Trout live and in real time. Outside of Mets games, if I saw more than 10 Trout at bats in real time in my whole life, it'd be a fucking miracle. And the announcers are noting the same thing as I write this.

When does this Marsh guy have to get back to his day job as a roadie for the Tedeschi-Trucks band?

metsmarathon Jun 11 2022 08:44 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

That dude presents a hell of an argument against the beards and long hair movement going about baseball these days.

Frayed Knot Jun 11 2022 08:49 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Yeah, there's a difference between 'I'm wearing it fashionably long' vs 'All the guys at the fillin' station where I work wear it this way'.

Gil Hodges woulda shaved these dudes personally. And warshed their mouths out with Clorox just to be safe.

Him and Ohtani. Hardly ever see them

Edgy MD Jun 11 2022 09:29 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

The City Connect Angels didn't connect on that double-play attempt.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2022 09:30 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Big break with an error on an easy dp and its 1st and 3rd, nobody out. Nido whiffs but here comes Zimmo. 3-0 bad guys in the 5th

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2022 09:35 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Dammit

Gwreck Jun 11 2022 09:36 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

1st and 3rd with none out and the Mets score none? This is not a recipe for success.

I bet I haven't seen more than five live Trout AB's outside of Mets games.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2022 09:40 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Carrasco seems to have seen enough of Trout and Ohtani

Edgy MD Jun 11 2022 09:41 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

So, this whole "two best players in the league" thing wasn't bullshit after all.

kcmets Jun 11 2022 09:41 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Fuck Trout, Ohtani too...

Trout is of course a great player, but I'm more impressed getting to watch the modern day Babe Ruth. Has there been anyone since Ruth who has credentials as impressive on both sides of the ball? The next best thing might have been Rick Fucking Ankiel?

Edgy MD Jun 11 2022 09:58 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

The problem is that we've written the rules so as to suppress the opportunity for any later Ruths to emerge. And now we've further re-written them so as to keep any Ohtanis from emerging either.

nymr83 Jun 11 2022 10:06 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

didnt say i liked the rules! F the DH

nymr83 Jun 11 2022 10:15 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

and that'll do it folks. we pitched to the 2 guys you shouldn't pitch to tonight.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 11 2022 10:26 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Hey wait we just started another comeback

kcmets Jun 11 2022 10:30 PM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Lorenzen exits, pitched a helluva game...

Lefty Specialist Jun 12 2022 04:57 AM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Didn't stay up for this one and glad I didn't.

Fman99 Jun 12 2022 06:22 AM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Yeah I got drunk and fell asleep. At 10 PM.

Johnny Lunchbucket Jun 12 2022 06:36 AM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Looks like we all slept through a 2 out 9th inning three-run Homer from Khalil Lee

Frayed Knot Jun 12 2022 08:01 AM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Lee also made an ill-advised dive for a ball with several runners on. He whiffed on it as the ball rolled to the wall which both cleared the bases and handed 1B Jared Walsh a cycle completing triple.

Edgy MD Jun 12 2022 11:27 AM Re: IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

Yeah, it's interesting that this one reads as a rout, but ultimately turned on some very small decisions.
