Wow,this is bad.

 

[Dude101]

What the hell got into the Angels.

 

[Raiden]

Looks like A.J. will be yanked out by Girardi soon.

 

[FlawlessVictory]

Game over. No way in hell Lackey giving up more than 3 tonight. Pack up the bags, series is going back to NY.

Edit: I would take Molina out at this point. AJ cant be any possibly worse with Posada behind the plate.

 

[Bunker]

This is probably the worst officiated series ever.

 

[FlawlessVictory]

LOL, another blown call. These plays aren't even close. Amazing.

 

[Spidey-Bat]

What the hell got into the Angels.

Being on the brink of elimination

 

[FaT_tONle]

I still think the Yanks will come back to win this game, but should the Angels hang on Pettite has to potential to stink it up at home, so I'd say just under 50% chance of this going to game seven should the Angels win this game. No way C.C loses game seven though. Any impact on the game 1 starter though or would C.C still be on full rest?

 

[Spidey-Bat]

Nice job by Burnett not even looking.

Really stupid move by Hunter though. Should have stayed at 3rd.

If CC has to pitch a game 7, the earliest he could come back would be for game 2 on 3 days rest. Yanks aren't winning tonight, I felt coming in that AJ would give up 4 runs in 6 IP, just didn't think he would be this bad this early. Lackey will be too stingy tonight. Yanks aren't losing a game 6 to Saunders though at Yankee Stadium.

 

[NewYorkSpider]

What was the blown call? I was at work.

 

[FlawlessVictory]

Damon was safe at first, ump called him out for the 3rd out of the inning, bases were empty.

 

[Kingfish]

Lackey looks very sharp. If this does turn out to be his last start as an Angel, at least he's going out with a bang.

 

[omid17]

it's Lackeys b-day today right?

 

[Kingfish]

Nope. Tomorrow.

By the way, Frank McCourt fired his wife.

Hilarious.

 

[Dark Donnie]

Did I just see on ESPN News that CB Bucknor is working the WS? I caught the end of the update so I'm not 100%.

 

[Kingfish]

He was scheduled to. They dropped him.

[cyborg ninja 14]

Good one Angels. Go ahead and rain all over ESPN's parade

Fox and ESPN won't mind if the Angels win today. The Yankees will still be favorites and they'll get extra broadcasts and talk time about it.

That would totally **** up their W.S rotation... I doubt they pitch him game 2 on three days rest unless the Yanks lose game 1 and they change last minute. So he'd basically go 3 and 6, with Burnett penciled for game 7 (or CC can probably go 3-4 innings on two days rest in relief if he pitches game 2 & 5). Still solid but dicey nonetheless. Least the Angels can do is make themselves the slightest bit useful and force this to a game 7.

 

[Immortalfire]

ESPN will talk more about the Yankees losing, than the Angles winning.

 

[Kingfish]

Was McCarver just not paying attention when Posada was whining about Molina catching? "Gentleman" my ass.

did he now??
