Two kids battle with thundersticks as mom tries to watch Angels-Red Sox By Brett Smiley Published Nov 15, 2016 3:10 pm EST During the Angels-Red Sox game in Anaheim on Thursday night, a couple of youngsters dueled with inflated plastic sabres (also known as thundersticks) while the younger combatant's mother tried to peek around the battle to catch the game. After all, Mike Trout was at the plate against Boston's David Price. It looks like big brother won but without humiliating the younger and less experienced fighter.
