Now instead of the drunk guy we have to listen to the Rays game feed in the background

[Guest USAFChief]

Blackhawks

They're still in it??

[ashbury]

Pitch to Cola with a RHer on the mound. If they get him, they'll walk Kubel.

 

Sounds about right. Tell Cola's mom to say something on TeeVee.

[Squirrel]

Colabellsie!

[ashbury]

Niiiice.

[Guest USAFChief]

Sounds about right. Tell Cola's mom to say something on TeeVee.

I think she left in the 8th.

[Physics Guy]

Cola bello is the bomb. Happy birthday Mom!

[Reider]

Hit another one for mamma, Cola!

[ashbury]

Colabello got only the single this time, because even him mom has left the ballpark by now.

 

/ edit - beaten to the punch yet again by the Chief

[John Kelsey]

What is this guy hitting with RISP? My goodness.

[Squirrel]

I think she left in the 8th.

She was on Greenland time.

[zchrz]

Clutchabello again!

[Reider]

A two run RBI single will do.

[Guest USAFChief]

"Burton has taken a seat."

 

Good to know.

[Guest USAFChief]

I'm on central time and I'm going to bed after this half inning if we don't score

What about if we score, and they tie it up.

 

Be careful the traps we set for ourselves.

[stringer bell]

I'm not gonna make it Target before 11 either.

I'm sure the 7-11 will be open.

[ashbury]

"Burton has taken a seat."

 

Runners didn't steal any bases tonight, but at least someone came away with a souvenir.

[Guest USAFChief]

It's not like they're being used much in Tampa.

[Beezer07]

Why did Mauer only hit a single? Just like him to leave it for someone else in the lineup to get the big hit.

[Guest USAFChief]

Close this sucker out, Perk. 9 bells in Tucson, bedtime.

[Squirrel]

Close this sucker out, Perk. 9 bells in Tucson, bedtime.

I was going t try and say something about Greenland in response but nothing sounded right.

[Guest USAFChief]

Winnah!

 

Cola is quite the story, ain't he?

[Squirrel]

Geez, 3rd strike, cut broadcast.

[ashbury]

Nice having no drama from Perkins in the ninth^H^H^H^H^H^H twelfth.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Yup. game over! And... back to 500!

[pierre75275]

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! How about that Collabello Kid?? is he sumthin or what??

[sampleSizeOfOne]

DLR -- that'd be the person who puts people on the DL, right?

 

Yeah, i heard about the tv show. Haven't gotten around to tryin' to watch it. Is it worth the time?

 

And for me, "Three cent stamp." seems appropriate as a twins fan...

 

'The heck do you mean?

 

Sorry i am slow (and explaining a joke is in a way, admitting failure...)

 

Um... what did i mean? Well, DLR is the plate leadin' to the 100% agree with police work quote, and i guess i was trying to make a joke about that.

 

And the last quote "Three cent stamp." is the duck painting... and i guess now, after this game, i imagine Mauer sayin' in the same tone "infield single." "no one wants an infield single"

 

Oh well. Someday, i'll be able to make a joke that's actually funny...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Really 23 degrees in Tampa? Wind chill must be close to 0.

 

And i know it is far too late to be useful or entertaining, but i went and looked it up.

 

Tropicana field is actually at 27 degrees... 46 minutes and change North Latitude.

 

Now it's bedtime...

[LaBombo]

I was going t try and say something about Greenland in response but nothing sounded right.

Iceland irony reference always works...

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Just for the record, Gardy far out managed Madden in this one
