When the LA Angels signed Mike Scioscia as manager at the turn of the millennium, there is no way they saw him lasting for the next 19 seasons, win the franchise’s only World Series, capture six American League West pennants, and build a rock solid Hall of Fame resume.
While it wasn’t the final season anyone would have hoped for Mike Scioscia (the Angels went 80-82 and missed the postseason for the fourth straight season), knowing that is was likely the end of his tenure leading the Halos made it a season worth watching.
Nevertheless, I think every Angels fan can agree that watching Mike Scioscia’s final press conference following Game 162 of the 2018 season was… weird?
