Well, after a less-then-auspicious start to the game, this one has turned good. Boston once held a 5-1 lead, but the Angels have chipped away a little each inning. They closed the gap to 5-3, and had the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh, but thank goodness for Howie Kendrick, who struck out on a pitch that wasn't in the same zip code as the plate, but then Justin Masterson decided to play Wild Thing and walk a run in. But he struck Ayber out and we now head to the 8th, 5-4 Boston.

Might be a good idea for Sox to add on
God, I wish Papelbon could go 2 innings but just get thru this inning and see what happens
May the Angels have only bad luck in the playoffs and anything bad goes as long as they lose, short of DEATH that is.

I have a confession:
I rooted for the Angels over the Giants in the 2002 World Series. When I think about it now, it makes me sick… but it was early in my fandom, and I didn’t have a whole lot of reasons to hate the Angels yet, and I didn’t want the Giants to win. I think I am forever doing penance for that decision.

The Angels-A's rivalry
wasn’t particularly strong in the ’90’s through 2001. When the A’s first got good again in the Beane era, their primary rivals were the Mariners. I detested the Giants much more in 2002.
by Soaker on Oct 3, 2008 9:52 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I did too.
I apologize for it now. It was before I was an A’s or Dodger fan… it was the last time I ever rooted for the Angels and it was when I realized that the team that I grew up rooting for (yeah, we had season Angel tickets when I was growing up. I pretty much stopped watching baseball after we no longer could afford them in the late 90s.) was not anything like the team that was playing, or the fans that were watching in 2002. The bandwaggon fans turned me off of them and it’s been a steady and sure ride to completely disliking everything about the team ever since.

On Judgement Day, K-Fraud will mention to God all the things he’s said to him over the years. The Lord will smile, then, after whipping out his trusty A’s cap, will send him off to the left.

Okay, apparently it happened in 2007.
I didn’t follow the postseason too much last year, so I guess I missed that.

Why don't they just say,
“You know the last time a team came from down 0-2 and weren’t playing the A’s was — well, basically that never happens.”
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal

Poor Angel fan
So sad… ha ha ha ha ha. 1 more game of Choke Rod as your closer before he goes to the NL and starts talking to God as a NY Met.

I want a player being interviewed by Sager to call him out on his ridiculous clothing.
Children, until we have taught them better, will be perfectly happy with a seasonal round of games in which conkers succeeds hopscotch.

Most people would get fired for looking that stupid.
Looking forward to Spring Training and the hope of another World Series title.

I feel bad for Sager.
He’s thinking,“I’ve got no personality, I’m old, my job is being taken over by every hot girl with any knowledge at all of sports, I need a gimmick. I know, ugly suits!” It’s a really, really desperate cry for attention but when it comes down to it, he’s just an old man fighting for his job. He reminds me of Gil from the Simpsons.

And they call us Chokeland . . .
The Angles just broke an MLB record for most consecutive losses to the same team in the post season play.

Boy
having the best record in your respective league sure means a lot now.

well, they were in, arguably, the worst division in baseball...
I say “arguably” because the NL West was probably wosre.

Howie Kendrick strikes out more than Jack Cust...
in the playoffs. That would’ve been my headline.
