Nice to see Parmelee in RF.

[GCTF]

If anyone accidentally ingests something harmful in the next 3 hours, at least they'll have this game to induce vomitting.

[snepp]

Nice to see Parmelee.

Indeed.

[IdahoPilgrim]

Actually hasn't been too bad yet today. Of course, I'm watching it out of the corner of my eye, just to cut down on exposure a little.

Good advice, probably best not to stare directly at it.

[Top Gun]

Twins better win this one, can't take much more.

[USAFChief]

Another lively game thread.

Seems like only a couple years ago the Twins were the talk of the town.

Wait...it was only a couple years ago.

[IdahoPilgrim]

That's why you have to move the runners, Ben.

[JB_Iowa]

Nice of them to get Sam a lead.

[USAFChief]

While I would agree he should be able to get the bunt down if asked, I would prefer he not be asked...in the THIRD INNING!

[IdahoPilgrim]

Given their offense recently, I think they should scratch to get a run no matter what inning it is. It could be the game winner.

[IdahoPilgrim]

Sam looks pretty sharp tonight. I may end up going to bed happy for a change.

[Scheherezade]

Deduno AL Cy Young winner 2013?

[IdahoPilgrim]

Good timing for Plouffe to find his mojo again.

[Badsmerf]

Plouffe!!!! That had to feel good for him.

[USAFChief]

That fan is probably exiting the stadium right now.

[glunn]

Plouffe!!!

[Riverbrian]

Are my eyes blurry. No walks? 4 Innings.

[IdahoPilgrim]

OT - Congrats to Elizabethton for winning their playoff opener tonight on the road. Berrios one hit through six innings with 7 K's. Elizabethton wins 4-0.
