It is too late for me to write a real recap. This game was also too weird and frustrating for such a thing, so here is a list of the nuttiness for those of you who weren't brave enough to stay up and watch:
-Two quality starts in one game from the Angels
-Five players lost to injury
-Two exploded hamstrings
-Two homers by Albert Pujols
-One murdered baseball by Mark Trumbo
-One pitcher that was scratched from the start only to end up pitching multiple innings in relief
-Two dozen non-sensical statements from the Angel broadcasting crew as they try to fill air time and act as if they aren't punchy
-One umpire who was clearly so drowsy that he completely lost the strike zone during the 15th inning
-One last train leaving Oakland at midnight that no doubt left dozens of A's fans stranded
-One shot of a woman sleeping in the stands that got videobombed by a dude picking his nose
-Nineteen innings of Chris Iannetta squatting behind the plate and Albert Pujols playing first base (poorly) on bad feet and Josh Hamilton not getting a hit
-One bad sac bunt that could've been a triple play only to have Pujols bobble the ball and then have to hold his throw because Jerome Williams was in his way so they only got one out
-One comically bad Trout misplay of a ball in left that resulted in a video replay of a ball that landed three feet short of the wall, just because
-One pitcher batting in an American League game
-Three gingers with beards pitching in the same game
-Two teams setting new records for the longest game in franchise history
