Anaheim Fans Show Support . . . for Others

Share via

Randy Harvey’s observation [June 17] regarding the lack of All-Star recognition for the Angels is certainly true. As a season-ticket holder, I can offer one answer to his question as to why there isn’t more unified fan support. The Orange County population is made up of so many people with allegiances to other parts of the country that homogeneous support is impossible. There seem to be as many cheering for the visiting team as for the Angels.

When I listen to radio broadcasts of games played in other cities, silence occurs when an Angel hits a home run, but when a visiting team hits one in Edison Field, you’d think it was an Angel by listening to the noise. We have a lot of people here from New York, Cleveland, Baltimore and Detroit, but how many of us relocated to those cities?
