The Los Angeles Angels are Idiots

Hope you saved room for seconds

Did the Mariners retaliate? No. Mike Trout had four consecutive games against the Mariners where he hit at least one home run. Why would the Mariners wait until the bottom of the ninth inning to intentionally throw at Trout? A game the Mariners are winning and putting Trout on base puts the tying run on with Ohtani coming to the plate. Why would they throw at Trout then? They didn’t. The whole retaliation thing is something that Trout concocted, and the idiot Angels went along for the ride. Mariner’s fans hate the Astros for cheating, but this might be the tipping point for Mariners/Angels relations for a long-time. The Angels for the idiotic player and coaching leadership and the Mariners for heroically defending their players against the idiocy of the Angels.

But wait… there’s more. Just like you thought this article was concluding, everyone thought the fight had concluded when entered;

Idiot Act #11: Raisel Iglesias throws the entire container of sunflower seeds onto the field. Why?

Idiot Act #12: He runs out like a bulldog with a chain on and hustles towards home plate, only to be stopped by some invisible fence, barking at the Mariners. Either go for it or go, home idiot. Why did you stop halfway there?

Idiot Act #13: The Angels’ closer, has to be restrained by his teammates and he actually appears to be fighting them.

Idiot Act #14: Iglesias destroys the dugout, his own team’s dugout. Why? What purpose does that serve?

Idiot Act #15: Iglesias throws a box of gum onto the field and has to be restrained by his teammates again.

Get your tickets now while you can
