Offseason

Regular season

  • August 16, 2003: Adam Riggs played for the Angels in a home game against the Tigers on August 16. He would gain notoriety because of the jersey he wore in the game. Riggs wore a sleeveless jersey that read "A-N-G-E-E-S" across the front. Riggs did not realize the mistake until his teammates advised him in the dugout between innings.
