Last night I went to the L.A. Angels game against the New York Yankess. If you didn't know the Angels actually play in Annaheim (which is in Orange County) but they adopted the name L.A. a couple of years ago for business reasons. I live in L.A. and it took me two hours to get there so I refuse to call them the L.A. Angels. But they are still a great ball club and they are having a great season.
And everyone's heard of the Yankess, "America's Team." I once heard there are two types of baseball fan; those who love and respect the game and Yankess fans. HA! I'm amongst those who consider them the "Evil Empire" and I was looking forward to seeing them for the first time.
The highest paid player in sports, A-Rod, steps up to bat.
"Mr. Yankee" Derek Jeter.
Angels stud Vlad Guerrero.
When the Angels are behind late in a game the Rally Monkey appears to rally the crowd. If you look closely you can seem him on the screen in the corner.
The Angels won in the tenth inning off of a hit from a rookie who had only 11 major-league at-bats. It was definitely the biggest hit of his life so far and the team rushed out to celebrate with him.

Hey, last night I went to the Colts/Bears pre-season game. It was about the closest I'll ever get to the Superbowl. It was nice to cheer on the team in person.
The Yankees always stole the thunder from the Brooklyn Dodgers back in the day (I recently watched a documentary on HBO). Are the Yankees and Dodgers still rivals to this day? - 1:52 PM
