The Angels really did something special at the end of the 2015 season: they made us forget all the things we hated about them in April and May, and made us believe that they could sneak into a play-in game, and get a little sip off of the playoff fountain of youth. They won close games, big games, Johnny Giavotella made a triumphant return, Mike Trout kept pace in the MVP race, and Albert Pujols surprised us all with a lil power left in the tank. The Angels needed a win today, to keep that hi-octane beast chugging down the Highway of the Panther, but there was no rest for that underpowered red machine, and it could only run on the fumes of Halo heroics for so long.
