On the international broadcast they do
Chone Figgins, free agent and post season flop leads off for the Angels
First pitch is a strike to Figgins! We're under way!
You'll get no AJ hate from me. Damn if I love a man
A.J. is a lot of fun to watch, he's stuff is as good as it gets
Figgins fouls off a couple fastball, 1-2 count
HAMMER OF DOOM! Burnett sits Figgins down with his nasty, nasty curveball. Best in baseball. One down.
First pitch is a pin straight fastball to Abreu. He, being Bobby Abreu, takes it.

Abreu hits a looping 0-2 liner to Damon in left. He makes an adventurous catch but records the out either way. 2 down with Hunter coming up
Game is on Fox in the states and Sportsnet in Canada. Well, FOX in Canada also
First pitch looked straight to me. The next few have had the "late life" we look for
