Angels @ Astros, 4/11/25

Paredes’s home run hit the Fowl Pole, so free chicken sammiches tomorrow.

I know no one will believe me but I called Cam’s. He got the marginal check swing called on him and he just sort of stepped back and spat, annoyed but in control of himself. I thought, OK, here we go.

I did not call Paraydees’ shot. I assumed he’d never hit another home run again in his career.

And that’s a winner. 14-3 is the final.

Steak and Shake was the original smash burger.

Speaking of smash burger, I was listening to the post game interview with Yainer. He said he’d never hit a grand slam ever, not even as a kid. He then said that his mom had arrived the previous day and that the slam was a gift she’d brought him, which the idiot translator retold as That’s a gift that I gave her. Which is not the same thing, not even particularly close.

I liked the old translator better from the past few seasons.

Angels have put Ben Joyce on the 15-day IL

I didn’t call the at bat but during his first one I said this is the game.
