July 1, 20197 yr RIP, always tragic but seems like the Angels have had this happen more than any in recent memory, Adenhart, Valbuena, Skaggs. So sad.
July 2, 20197 yr Such sad news. Saw this while at work and had to step out for a few minutes. Being during the season brought up too many memories of Jose. Scrolling through game scores and seeing "Postponed - Tragedy" just brought a lump into my throat. Feel so bad for the Skaggs family, the Angels, their fans, and all who knew him. Rest in Peace, Tyler Skaggs.
July 2, 20197 yr I can't imagine what his family and teammates are going through. Not that they'll read this, but my condolences go out to them. They don't have full results or anything yet, but everything I've read said they don't suspect foul play or suicide; that they were just called to the hotel for an unconscious male and was pronounced dead at the scene.
July 2, 20197 yr This is beautiful. Can't forget how great Stanton was as a leader here when Jose passed, very nice to see him imparting some leadership and words of advice to the Angels players. A good man... [ATTACH]3055._xfImport[/ATTACH]
July 2, 20197 yr they don't suspect fowl play It's foul not fowl play... not trying to be funny, genuinely correcting you.
July 2, 20197 yr It's foul not fowl play... not trying to be funny, genuinely correcting you. yeah, I know the difference. Guess I typed the wrong one or autocorrect did a thing.
July 13, 20197 yr Angels all wearing Skaggs jerseys tonight. Trout homered first time up. The feels. ?
July 13, 20197 yr The Angels just pitched a combined no-hitter and won 13-0. Holy cow. That is something.

July 14, 20197 yr Angels last combined no hitter was July 13, 1991... the day Skaggs was born. Holy. Shit.
July 14, 20197 yr Angels last combined no hitter was July 13, 1991... the day Skaggs was born. Holy. Shit. also heard it was their 11th No-No.... and that in high school, Skaggs wore # 11
July 14, 20197 yr Angels last combined no hitter was July 13, 1991... the day Skaggs was born. Holy. Shit. You misread - the last combined no hitter in California occurred that day, but the Angels were not involved in that game. That would have been a bit too much.
July 14, 20197 yr You misread - the last combined no hitter in California occurred that day, but the Angels were not involved in that game. That would have been a bit too much. So who got that no hitter? Just curious.
July 14, 20197 yr So who got that no hitter? Just curious. Orioles against the A's, in California. https://sabr.org/gamesproj/game/july-13-1991-four-orioles-pitchers-combine-no-hitter-against
July 14, 20197 yr Orioles against the A's, in California. https://sabr.org/gamesproj/game/july-13-1991-four-orioles-pitchers-combine-no-hitter-against Ahh... I totally read it as California A's and since the Angels were the California Angels then that must he what my mind read.
July 14, 20197 yr Ahh... I totally read it as California A's and since the Angels were the California Angels then that must he what my mind read. Makes sense. Either way it's a crazy coincidence.
