At Home In The Wasteland Travel Blog

Camera phone FTW Monday night marked the first game of the Angels-Nats interleague series, so I dusted off my incredibly large Angels jersey (no really, it’s like really big. I bought it before they started making the women’s cut, so I swim around in the smallest men’s size) and headed down to Nationals Park. A [...]

I spent all day at church: I guess we all have our own concept of “church”, eh? Watching the Angels play the O’s on a beautiful spring day sure beats sitting inside a stuffy church and listening to some minister drone on endlessly, wouldn’t you agree? Welcome to religion, Lindsay style. Dressed in my Sunday [...]

Saw the Angels play the O’s at Camden Yards today. The weathermen kept predicting rain for this weekend, but as you can see it turned out to be a perfect day for a ballgame. The last time I saw a game at Camden Yards was in 2002, right before the Angels went on to win [...]

Wow, that was a horrible series for the Angels. Was this really the same team that beat the Yanks in the ALDS? The only time I saw Vladimir Guerrero hit was in that damn overplayed Pepsi commercial with Alex Rodriguez. Kelvim Escobar might want to spend some time with Little Leaguers…maybe they’ll demonstrate how to [...]

On Friday I went to my first postseason baseball game at Angel Stadium. As you can imagine, the opportunity doesn’t come very often for this Angels fan. First, I’ve never seen so many people at a game before. The last time I personally saw the stadium so full was back in 2000, when I went [...]

Sheffield and Crosby collide while chasing a ball hit by Adam Kennedy. Angels celebrate their ALDS win over the evil Yankees. From the WashPost: In that case, Santana, a 12-game winner who had not appeared in any of the first four games of the series, was a pretty decent spare part to have just lying [...]

I’ve received quite a few taunting IMs from all of you damn Red Sox fans, so all I have to say to my Boston/GW comrades is… BRING IT ON! Confused? Then read this.

The Anaheim Angels are the American League West champs for the first time in 18 years. Good job boys!

We’ve got Bartolo Colon and Vladimir Guerrero on the team now. Spring training starts soon…this should be a good season. I still miss Scott Spiezio, though. Oh, and the Yankees got A-Rod!!!! I can’t stand the Yankees! Stupid George Steinbrenner and all his cash. There he goes again trying to buy another championship ring…ARRRRRRRRGH!

A game between the Angels and Rangers marked the official start of the 2003 Major League Baseball season.  Unfortunately, the Angels lost 6 – 3.
