The 2006 Los Angeles Angels season was the 46th season of the Los Angeles Angels franchise in the American League, the 41st in Anaheim, and their 41st season playing their home games at Angel Stadium. It began with the team trying to win their third consecutive American League West title. However, they came up short, finishing in second place with a record of 89–73. But the biggest story of the year was longtime Angels mainstay Tim Salmon playing his final season. Towards the end of the season, not only were the fans excited with trying to get into the playoffs in the final month of the season, but they were excited about Salmon trying to hit his 300th home run. Eventually, he ended with 299, one short of the milestone.
