"There are three things in my life which I really love: God, my family, and baseball. The only problem - once baseball season starts, I change the order around a bit." ~Tony "bag of donuts" Vasile, 1999

Oh, man, was that a rout! Seeking to avenge their opening night loss, the Angels took bats in hand and swung for the fences, literally, defeating the Twins 9-1! Mike "Nipples" Napoli sent a bomb over the right center wall and Krotch Gobbie crushed one into the football press box at the Metrodome. Whose'yer Vladdy went 3-4 with trip ribbies and Sit'n Sleep added 2 more on a 3-5 night. Meanwhile, the $90mm man is still hitless after 2 games.

John Garland was outstanding in his Angels debut as he legged 'em down and smacked 'em, yacked 'em over 8 solid innings. 6 hits but only 1 earned run. Nice! He out dueled Boof Bonser. Enough said.

Tonight we'll see Barry Suanders take the hill vs. Nick Blackburn. Here's to an Angels win and TH's 1st hit as a Halo!
