Price utterly failing at pitching to contact tonight, yet recording several outs...

Well that was ugly but at least it only ended up being 3 and a bunch of pitches.

 

That's the spirit! Could have been 8 walks and six runs or something crazy like that...

I know I ask this a lot, but does anyone know of an available audio stream?

MLB audio is like $20 a year.

I'll take door #1.

Only if the price is right.

Okay, this post would have been much more meaningful if I had done it 4 hours ago, but I've been out and just got home, so this is my first chance.

 

When I heard this afternoon that Gibson went out and played 18 holes of golf on a tough TPC course yesterday, I was pissed. It reminded me of the days that Ron Davis was blowing saves regularly while getting only four hours of sleep because he needed to get up to go fishing. I know that most of the team golfed yesterday, and I don't begrudge them that. But a starting pitcher can't be golfing the day before his scheduled start. Pitching is all about routine, and pitchers will tell you they stick to a strict schedule of activities between starts. And there is very little margin for error in the art of pitching, and chiropractors will tell you that golf does weird things to your body alignment.

 

Gibson's poor start was predictable, and a player's coach like Gardy won't hold him accountable. I wonder if David Price went golfing yesterday?

I know it's considered bad form to discuss a no-hitter in progress, but are we also not supposed to mention a perfect game in progress?

 

Because David Price is throwing a perfect game. That's right, through three, a perfect game. Not a single base runner. 9 up, 9 down. Perfecto. Zilcho baserunners-oh.

 

Just wondering what the rules are for a perfect game.

PS Where is his other hand?

 

Common knowledge that his left hand is black.

There are maybe 15 or even just 10 dudes on the planet whose cosmetic surgery expenditure exceeds the combined total of those ladies. And Bob is like, 5 of them. Good gig if you can get it, though.

There are a lot of missing hands in that photo and a lot of smiles.

Wouldn't worry about it. Read somewhere that the Twins' offense is vastly improved from last year, so that dying quail is just around the corner.

He prefers the term 'giftedly tan'. And it's attached to a pretty damn long left arm.

Arm extension in 2001, google it.

You're right, good catch. And something I'd never heard of, "Eyeball whitening". Thankfully there are no images.

I believe Mr.Burns once went for an eye-reballing. Anything is possible.
