ESPN’s 30 for 30 Finally Reveals the Troubling True Story Behind Angels in the Outfield [View all]

video at the source!

As Angels in the Outfield fans might remember, the California Angels had it rough at the start of the 1994 season: “They had a catcher who could barely run, they had a pair of outfielders who constantly collided with each other, and their star pitcher Whitt Bass, I don’t think he could even read,” recalls one reporter. But the team managed to somehow, miraculously, pull it together.

In this note-perfect College Humor video, an episode of ESPN’s documentary series 30 for 30 explores this breakthrough—and whether the amazing turnaround was a true case of divine intervention, or a classic case of steroid use.
