I find it interesting that Bochy sits Belt again when he's been one of the best hitters in the lineup so far, yet Longoria continues to play. I would think he would go with the hot hand and sit Longoria and put Sandoval at 3rd.

It's hard enough to hit Kershaw, but when the defense makes incredible plays behind him it's just unfair. That's 2 so far

Kershaw seems as locked in as his last start against the Giants while Blach looks much more vulnerable.

Is there a stat that, essentially, gives a percentage of at-bats with RISP that result in a run scored?

Been watching Ohtani pitch against the A's today.....

my god I wish the Giants got him, but thank goodness he's in the AL. That kid is truly amazing.

I heard rumblings that at one point in spring training the Angels contemplated sending him to the start the season in the minors due to his spring training struggles. If that was true, they are probably very glad that they didn't make that decision.

Shows that Spring Training stats are about as useful elephants in a mine field

I went yesterday, and am at work today. What an excellent game. TZ approved, regardless of the final outcome.

Two on, no outs with the top of the lineup due up and the Giants manage to just get one..... Jackson blew it not being able to get the bunt down

P Johnson may have just lost the game, but he's still having a good start to the season.

Toughest lefty in the game pitching. I suspect Belt cannot hit him
