Tyler Skaggs has passed away
« on: July 01, 2019, 03:59:14 pm »
Just announced on Angels Twitter. Game tonight has been cancelled. No details released as of this time.

Sad to hear. He was a good pitcher.

Damn. Just seems like a few years ago they lost another young pitcher in a car accident.

I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

April marked 10 years since his passing.

Angels having a week from hell - Tommy LaStella out 8-10 weeks with a fractured tibia (foul ball straight below the knee during last night’s game).

Owwww! The old Jermaine Dye injury. That's what I was terrified of the other night when Alvarez fouled that ball the other night.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

I watched that happen.

He was in as much agony as I've ever seen from a hitter.

Awful.

Sadly and eerily similar to Daryl Kile's death.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

What? A broken leg is similar to Kile's death? I'm missing something here.

Skaggs' death, not the Dye injury.

Tonight was the first game back in Anaheim since his death. The Angels all wore identical Skaggs 45 jerseys.

They then proceeded to have two pitchers combine on a no hitter. Afterwards, every player left his jersey on the mound.

Not a dry eye in the house, let me tell you that much.
