On to Anaheim

< denial >The Angels were actually just relaxing tonight. Subconsciously, they wanted to be able to play two more games at home and give the fans two more chances to see them play. They just don't want this season to end. < / denial >

Whatever tonight was, I hope the Angels have it out of their system now.

Ad Orientem links to a picture of the Angels old "halo" hats from their "California Angels" days. The Angels have had quite a variety of caps. When they first came up from the minors they had a stylized "LA" that looked a lot like the Dodger's "LA", although the font was different. (Did they have the halo around the "A" then? I can't remember. It's possible.) They were then the Los Angeles Angels as they had been when they were in the old Pacific Coast league. Those were the days when Los Angeles had a Wrigley Field -- almost an exact duplicate of Chicago's, right down to the ivy. "Wrigley Field" since the Los Angeles Angels used to be the Chicago Cubs triple A farm team. Our Wrigley Field was torn down many years ago. I have no idea what's there now and I'm sure I couldn't find it again.
