Josh Hamilton’s wife called security because of Rangers fans’ abuse

[madinmaryland]

The verbal abuse that Josh Hamilton’s wife received from Texas Rangers fans was so harsh that she was forced to call security during the game, Hamilton said.

Katie Hamilton and the couple’s four kids remained in their seats and watched Friday’s game with a security guard present.

Josh Hamilton went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts as the Angels lost, 3-2, in his first game back in Arlington since signing a stunning five-year $125-million contract with Los Angeles.

The outfielder, who slumped throughout the second half of 2012 as the Rangers lost their division lead and the AL Wild Card Game, received “vicious boos” from Rangers fans.

1. I watched

the game. The boos and catcalls were loud & prolonged. The cheers, after he struck out, were over the top. It sounded more like cheers for a homerun.

And it is the ANAHEIM Angels. The Dodgers play in LA.

3. Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim

Yeah, it's lame, but it's real.

4. I was okay with "The California Angels". I wish they had stuck with that. n/t

2. I read this yesterday and thought it was pretty shitty.

I hope he stays clean--I'm pretty certain that's what matters most to his family. Addiction is a deadly demon to overcome, and you are never "cured."
