Yankee Stadium. August 21, 1992. The Angels were in the middle of a late summer East Coast swing, 11 games under .500, 17.5 games back in the AL West. Their regular cast of characters included Von Hayes, Junior Felix and Gary Gaetti, pacing a regular line-up that saw exactly zero guys approach a .400 SLG. Long gone were the days of Bobby Grich, Brian Downing and Wally World. A team that was prime for a rebuild instead gave 300 AB to Hubie Brooks and his 63 OPS+. As a DH.
In their previous trip to Yankee Stadium, the Angels would be swept in three games.
