 Angeles Stadium If you’re heading to the Angels Stadium of Anaheim to catch a Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim baseball game, then chances are you’re going to be out for the day or night. If you’re like a lot of American, a good ole ballpark frank will do the trick, but if your palette requires a bit more than the musty stench of beer brats, there are plenty of options to stir your senses in the right direction. Below are three suggestions for alternatives to “food by the masses”:
 Haven Gastropub 1. Haven Gastropub
190 S. Glassell St. Orange, CA 92866
(714) 221-0680
10 Minutes from Angels Stadim (Get Directions)
www.havengastropub.com
With top of the line libations and a menu that is worthy of multiple trips, Haven Gastropub provides you food that you will actually want to savor before going to the Angels game. The classic Mac & Cheese comes with Truffle shavings that add a flavorful kick, and the Chicken & Waffles combine sweet and savory that will make desert unnecessary. The service is consistently on time and friendly and extremely attentive to all special needs. The Haven Burger topped with the in-house ketchup is a pure delight that is not to be missed. American cuisine at its finest with a fine drought to flush it down.
 Bruxie 2. Bruxie
292 N Glassell St, Orange, California 92866
(714) 633-3900
10 Minutes from Angels Stadim (Get Directions)
www.bruxie.com
Bruxie is considered an American Bistro, and might also be compared to Haven Gastropub, but as the much cheaper version. Think of it as a step up from ballpark food, and a step down from Haven. They do have a number of local favorites including the buttermilk fried chicken waffle sandwich, which will leave you with the happiest guy ache you’ve ever had. It is served with a light honey glaze and fresh fruit to try and distract you from the fact that you are eating chicken inside a waffle, but don’t be fooled. You will be back for more, because it is just that good. The service is friendly, and people here tend to enjoy themselves whether they are going to the game or not. Great for large families and parties.
 Blue Bayou Restaurant 3. Blue Bayou
1313 South Harbor Blvd Anaheim, California
(714) 781-3463
10 Minutes from Angels Stadium (Get Directions
For the best straight up Cajun food that you will find anywhere near Anaheim, the Blue Bayou is a no brainer. Entering the Bayou, you feel as though you’re in the French quarter in Louisiana, and the feeling will stay with you through the meal. You have to enter into Disneyland to get into this amazing restaurant, but it is almost worth the price of admission by itself. The beef short ribs and the baked apple are local favorites that you must try. Watch out for the Pirates of the Caribbean right outside the door!

 Los Angeles Angeles With new ownership, the Cy Young award winner and the best record in baseball, the Dodgers seem to be the talk of the town. But what about that other LA team? The Angels seem somewhat to be flying under the radar, especially considering their tremendous recent success. With the signing of future Hall of Famer Albert Pujols and starting pitcher C.J. Wilson in the off-season came expectations for this club probably bigger than ever before in the franchise’s history. When they failed to immediately deliver, beginning the season with just a 6-14 record, the hype quickly dwindled.
But following their slow start, the Halos have gone 27-16, including an eight game win streak at the end of May. Lately they’ve been firing on all cylinders and have become one of the most exciting clubs to watch in the league. After his very slow start, keeping right around the Mendoza line in the month of April, Pujols is back to his normal, machine-like self. During a 19-game stretch in May he raised his average from .211 to .260, with six bombs and 19 RBIs. He has also drove in 33 runs in 29 games for the month. Having your $240 million player in the middle of the lineup swinging it like he should, as well as the team’s pitching staff doing its job from top to bottom, is certainly key factor to the team’s recent triumphs. However, the biggest contributor to their success: a 20 year old kid.
Since being called up in late April, Mike Trout is hitting .354 with six home runs and 15 stolen bases. No coincidence that since his callup, the Angels have just found ways to win. The leadoff man and defensive captain in center field has not missed a start since being placed on the roster. Many “lifers” who have been around the sport for a long time see Trout run and say he could be the fastest down the line baseball has ever seen. His tremendous speed makes him a nightmare for defenses when he gets on base. His outstanding play has made him the leading candidate (by far) for AL Rookie of the year and even brought about some discussion of the MVP award for the 20 year old. Sparked by Trout’s incredible skills, aggression and enthusiasm for the game, the Angels have become the team to see in Los Angeles.
You can view the complete Angels schedule as well as purchase Angels Tickets for all home and away games at Barrys Tickets. We have an office minutes away from Angels Stadium.

 CJ Wilson LA Angels Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Pitcher CJ Wilson
Christopher John “CJ” Wilson was born on November 18, 1980 in Newport Beach, CA. He is a professional baseball pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Attended high school in Fountain Valley in Fountain Valley, CA and attended his college at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, CA. After graduating high school, Wilson went undrafted. Instead, he was offered walk-on roles at Division I universities. In the end, he chose to attend Santa Ana Junior College. “Realistically, I was physically behind and couldn’t compete at the D1 level yet. Don Sneddon and his coaching staff at Santa Ana really gave me the chance to work my way into maturity by emphasizing self-discipline. I wanted to be a Major Leaguer and knew I could do it with the right amount of work and focus. ”
After two very productive seasons at Santa Ana JC, the young pitcher got a scholarship offer from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. He took the offer and transferred to Fountain Valley believing it would positively impact his chances for the June Draft. His standout performance that year earned him MVP honors in the Orange Empire Conference and California Junior College Co-Player of the Year, thought he still went undrafted.
The sinistral pitcher decided to apply himself in his academics, juggling daily practice while actively making an effort in his passion, film. He took a hefty course load in his major, screenwriting, and attended classes with well known actors, writers, and directors.
He was finally drafted in the 5th round of the 2001 MLB Draft by the Texas Rangers. He was scouted by Tim Fortugno, who also resided in Huntington Beach. “Tim believed in me and took a chance on me. It was the happiest day of my life. ”
The next few years, Wilson started off by flying through the Minor Leagues, starting the 2001 season in Pulaski of the Appalachian League, afterwards being promoted to Single-A with the Savannah Sand Gnats. He moved through High-A Charlotte (Florida State League) and into Double-A Tulsa (Texas League) by late 2002. His exceptional start was not without faults, however, as he encountered several major obstacles, namely:
2001 – Promoted from rookie ball to low-A ball mid season, then suffered stress fracture in leg.
2002 – From High A ball All-Star to complete game playoff win in AA.
2003 – AA ace to open the season, Tommy John Surgery in August.
2004 – Missed entire season, setbacks from surgery including nerve damage.
Wilson’s real breakthrough season came in 2007 when he became the closer for The Texas Rangers, which “was an absolute dream come true.” He was 11 for 12 in saves in just his second full season in the Majors.
2010 saw Wilson named to the starting rotation. Starting in the majors for the first time since his rookie year, Wilson would prove to be one of the best pitchers in the league and would start the second post-season game for the Rangers. In two seasons as a starter, Wilson compiled a 31-15 record with six complete games, one shutout and a 3.14 ERA (427.1 IP – 149 ER) in 67 starts. His 31 wins are tied for seventh most in the Majors over the last two seasons. For his career, Wilson is 43-35, with six complete games, one shutout, 52 saves and a 3.60 ERA in 325 games (73 starts).
By 2011, Wilson’s talents had helped guide Texas to a second consecutive World Series berth. The lefty made a career-high 34 starts (T1st in MLB) registering a 16-7 record with three complete games, one shutout and a 2.94 ERA (223.1 IP – 73 ER) while walking 74 batters and striking out 206. He finished among A.L. leaders in wins (T4th), strikeouts (6th), ERA (7th) and opponents’ batting average (10th, .232). Wilson’s 2.31 road ERA (121 IP – 31 ER) was the lowest mark in the A.L.
Wilson joined the Angels on the same day Los Angeles agreed to a 10-year, $254 million deal with first baseman Albert Pujols. “It’s crazy, obviously, with Albert going over there,” Wilson told reporters. “It’s a big swing of the balance of power in the West. I thought I was going to make a little bit of difference and he’s obviously going to make a huge one. I mean, nobody saw that coming.”
Currently, Wilson is part of a dynamic pitching foursome that also includes Jered Weaver (the ace), Dan Haren (possibly baseball’s most consistent arm the last seven years) and Ervin Santana (among the most electric in the game).
Barrys Ticket Services sells Angels Tickets for all games at Angel Stadium as well as all road games. We have great seats available for Albert Pujols Bobblehead Night, Angels Vs Red Sox Tickets, Angels Vs Yankees Tickets as well as all other Angels Games.

 Daniel Haren Los Angelesa Angels You can see Daniel Haren and the rest of the Los Angeles Angels when you purchase Angels Tickets from Barrys Tickets.com.
Daniel John Haren who is of Irish and Mexican descent was born on September 17, 1980, in Monterey Park, California. He is a Major League Baseball starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Haren graduated from Bishop Amat High School in La Puente, CA in 1998. He then attended Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA on a baseball scholarship. Together with Noah Lowry, a left-handed pitcher just one month younger than Haren, they formed the best starting pitching duo in the West Coast Conference.
Both Haren and Lowry skipped their senior seasons. Lowry was taken in the 1st round o 30th overall by the San Francisco Giants and Haren was taken in the 2nd round on 72nd overall by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 2001 Major League. Haren posted a 2.22 ERA in 17 starts, and Lowry posted a 1.71 ERA in 18 starts.
In 2002, Haren made 28 starts in A-ball for Peoria and Potomac, finishing with a combined ERA of 2.74. He started Double-A Tennessee, but was promoted after eight starts to Triple-A Memphis in 2003. Then he made his major league debut at the age of 22. He showed off his batting skills by hitting the very first pitch he saw for a double. He was out-dueled by Jason Schmidt, who went on to finish second in the National League Cy Young Award voting that year.
In 2004, he was sent back down to AAA Memphis and received a late-season call-up, and made five appearances in the post-season for the Cardinals, including two in the World Series. He was later traded to the Oakland Athletics for Mark Mulder, one of the best pitchers in the American League at the time.
Haren went 14-12 with a 3.73 ERA in his first full season as a major leaguer. He also got the opportunity to pitch against the rival San Francisco Giants in the Bay Bridge Series.
Haren broke the top 10 in the American League in the following categories: innings (217-9th place), strikeouts (163-6th place), and complete games (3-4th place) in 2005.
Haren had one of the best seasons among any pitcher in the majors. Haren finished in the top ten in the American League in wins, with 15, strikeouts, with 192, and finished in the top three in the AL in ERA with 3.07 in 2007. He was also selected to start the MLB All Star Game that year and was traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks along with Connor Robertson.
2008, he was selected to the 2008 All-Star game at Yankee Stadium along with his teammate, Brandon Webb. He has an impressive 3.33 ERA to go along with a 16-8 win-loss record, and a career-high 206 strikeouts.
In 2009, Haren was also selected a 2009 NL All-Star, representing the Diamondbacks along with Justin Upton. He was named # 33 on the Sporting News’ list of the 50 greatest current players in baseball finishing with a record of 14-10, 3.14 ERA, and 223 strikeouts.
In 2010, he joined the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Haren went 5-4 with 75 strikeouts and a 2.87 ERA and posting a .364 batting average and .902 OPS with one home run in 55 at bats.
As for his pitching style is often dubbed a “chess match” by reporters and announcers. Haren usually has a slow pitching delivery, highlighted by a slight pause in the middle of his windup, that he speeds up with runners on base. Haren throws a 91-94 mph fastball with movement. A recently added 90-93 mph two-seam fastball, a sharp split-finger fastball, and a spike curve. Haren has also added and relied more heavily upon an 86-90 mph cut fastball, which he credited for last season’s success. His curveball is just an average offering that he flips over to get ahead early in the count, while his splitter is a plus pitch and his main strikeout weapon.

 Jeremy Moore Los Angeles Angels
Los Angeles Angels Jeremy Moore
Jeremy Jerome Moore is one of the most aspiring players in the field of baseball. In fact, the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim believes in his potential signing him a contract during September call-ups on the 1st day of September, year 2011. However, he signed as a draft on the 10th of June, year 2005. Jeremy Moore’s debut in Major League Baseball was on the 2nd day of September and it was a big break for him as the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim made him the team’s outfielder for Major League Baseball.
Jeremy Moore was born on the 29th day of June, year 1987. He was actually born in Shreveport, Los Angeles. Jeremy Moore stands 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighs 190 pounds. At a young age of 24, Jeremy Moore’s passion for playing baseball is really outstanding. He is in fact a great exemplar of the complex interaction between the skills and tools of a player.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim drafted Jeremy Moore in the 6th round of the 2005 amateur draft when he was in high school in Vivian, Louisiana. Jeremy was a multi skilled sport star during high school, and rather raw as a baseball player, but the Angels of Anaheim believed that his power and speed combination was commendable of development. In 2007, Jeremy hit .272 with 14 homers and 17 steals for Orem in the Pioneer League. Promoted to Low-A Cedar Rapids for ’08, Jeremy hit just .240 and struck out 125 times with just 21 walks in 362 at-bats, but he also hit 12 triples and 17 homers while stealing 28 bases. Jeremy hit .279/.330/.443 with 11 homers and 17 steals for High-A Rancho Cucamonga in 2009, then .303/.358/.463 with 10 triples, 13 homers, and 24 steals last year for Double-A Arkansas. Moreover, for Triple-A Salt Lake, Moore is hitting .229/.334/.541 with 23 doubles, 15 triples, 14 homers, 17 steals, and a 20/107 BB/K ratio in 394 at-bats. Jeremy Moore is a left-handed hitter and right-handed thrower. Jeremy has a substandard throwing arm; however, this has not stopped the Angels of Anaheim from using him in right field frequently. Jeremy is indeed fast and can handle center field without any difficulty. His range is a major asset and his speed also shows up on offense, mainly with the large number of triples he hits. For four consecutive seasons, he’s surpassed double-digits in triples. He is still improving his baserunning abilities to go with the speed tool. Jeremy Moore’s set of predefined tools stands out, and his combination of defensive ability, speed, and occasional power is fascinating. The imperfections in his skills provide him a high risk factor, but even a small amount of progress in his hitting tactic could lead him a long way.
Jeremy received awards such as MID Player of the Week on the 9th of June, 2008 as well as TEX Post-Season All-Star and TEX Player of the Week in August of 2010. Jeremy Moore will continue to flourish as a remarkable player of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Jeremy started and will continue to make stories and legacy in the history of Major League Baseball.
You can see Jeremy Moore and the rest of the Angels play live when you purchase Angels Tickets from BarrysTickets.com We stock all Angels games including, Angels Vs Yankees, Angels Vs Red Sox and Angels Vs Dodgers Tickets.
