No Josh Hamilton in the lineup tonight. I guess it's too much to expect that bum to be healthy when I finally decide to go down there for a game.

Mike Trout is in the lineup…that is all that matters.

Been watching your game on the TV and it occurred to me that you are getting to see 4 probable HOF'rs in one game:

Pujols
Verlander
Cabrera
Trout (I know it's early, but barring injury we all know where this is going)

That's not a bad evening at the ball park...

That's why I named those guys specifically in my original post talking about a "true Hall of Fame Weekend." I had to jump at the opportunity to do it. So awesome.

It took two ****ing hours for me to drive 45 miles. Have I mentioned how much I hate this city? Because I do. And it was for literally zero reason, too. Just people not driving. I missed the start of the game, and that angers me. I've realized that the reason people in Southern California never show up to games on time is because of traffic, not because they don't care. I don't think I can talk **** about that ever again. How people who live here ever show up on time for ANYTHING is absolutely beyond me.

Game was generally unremarkable. At least I got to see a challenge for the first time and Ausmus got ejected. No garlic fries on the level I was on? That makes no sense to me, but whatever. Had to walk on ramps down two levels and all the way around to the third base side just to get some.

Postgame fireworks were awesome because the finale was set to Carmina Burana.

It's always amazing how much nicer and cleaner people are at Angels games compared to Dodgers games. And it's always amazing how much hotter the chicks are at Angels games compared to Dodgers games. A veritable feast for the eyes.

6-4 on the road against the A's, Angels, and Mariners...I'll take it. Also, Zach Britton is filthy.

Just get rid of the rule. A stupid "fix" to a nonexistent problem. What idiocy.

Dan Uggla, lol. Garbage. Error on the first batter of the game. At least he helped turn a double play to erase the runner.

0-5, 3 K, and 2 errors for Uggla thus far.

Vance Worley continues the trend of making Rick Anderson look like a completely incompetent pitching coach.
