The New Road Record Conspiracy Theory

I love a good conspiracy theory and here's the latest. The Angels are a pathetic 3-8 on the road this season and I have a new theory of why that might be.

Here's the breakdown of their road games this season with date, opponent, score & TV announcing team.

Apr 10 @ CLE L 6-7 Phys & Hud
Apr 11 @ CLE W 4-1 Phys & Hud
Apr 12 @ CLE L 2-4 Phys & Hud
Apr 13 @ BOS L 1-10 Phys & Hud
Apr 14 @ BOS L 0-8 National Fox
Apr 16 @ BOS L 2-7 Phys & Hud
Apr 17 @ OAK L 1-4 Phys & Hud
Apr 18 @ OAK L 0-3 Phys & Hud
Apr 27 @ CWS L 3-7 Mota & Gubi
Apr 28 @ CWS W 3-0 Mota & Gubi
Apr 29 @ CWS W 5-2 Mota & Gubi

Now let's break it down by announcing team

Mota & Gubi  2-1 .667
Phys & Hud   1-6 .143
National Fox 0-1 .000

As you can see, the Angels clearly play their best baseball when the TV announcing team is Jose Mota & Mark Gubicza. Let the "Fire Phys & Hud" campaign begin!

I'd be very mad if my favorite two announcers were fired.
