Game Thread: Twins v Astros, 6/8 @ 1:10pm CT

[snepp]

Lookin' like you'll have time to get in tomorrow's nap today, too.

 

Soon, spoken too?

[snepp]

What just happened?

[Squirrel]

Well ... I got 4 drawers re-organized and items purged ... now onto the closet ... unless it gets even more interesting ...

[ashbury]

Soon, spoken too?

 

Calm you keep, and on you carry.

 

[Guest USAFChief]

I've got a brisket in the smoker. Watchin' a ball game. Two of three kids coming over for supper later. Gamethread up and running.

 

Life is good.

[LaBombo]

I had to turn the game off, following online. Neither starter went past 4 innings. Brutal

Was surprised to see half the game remaining after two hours of yard work. Thinking of working on other stuff outside for an hour and then checking on the game again at the 7th inning stretch...

[ashbury]

TK mentions a wife. When did he remarry?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

With Free on-air Spanish to Klingon language classes

 

Never bothered learning Klingon, sadly.

 

But i now i'm curious as to what a Klingon Commentary would be like...

Probably about as interesting as TK's but in a different way. Unless you actually understand Klingon.

What's the deal with the antisocial third kid?

[Guest USAFChief]

What's the deal with the antisocial third kid?

8 hr drive.

[snepp]

8 hr drive.

 

Slacker.

[snepp]

I need to mow before it rains, but I'd hate to miss a whole half an inning.

 

 

 

 

And yikes, Nunez.

[Riverbrian]

So... Someone catch me up... Morales... On the bench today... Out of options so he must get ready up here.

 

So... When do we think he hits the starting lineup?

[LaBombo]

Thinking today's commentary would have a whole bunch of those words that sounds like a hairball gets coughed up with it.

 

Nunez = infielder in the outfield turned late-inning defensive sub for Arcia?

[ashbury]

8 hr drive.

 

Jerk.

A whole half inning??

 

How many acres are you mowing, ferpetesakes?

TK better remember his mike is still live when they show a replay leading to the commercial break. A quiet "uff" as he sees Nunez hitting the ground; pretty strong language in Twins-land.

Disable the speed governor on the Kubota and the half acre should be done in time to see Santana bat.

It'll fit in with the 27 "ooh's" he's uttered today every time a pitch is near the middle of the plate.

[ashbury]

We are losing but with Honor, like good Klingons.

[Squirrel]

Well, it's not like his backyard is all rocks, sand and cacti like yours. Perspective, Chief.

It is a good day to die... of boredom from watching eleven walks.

Dont forget the roadrunners... Meep meep

Hey, I have 300 square feet of Bermuda back there. 3.6 million gallons of water per month keeps it nice and green, too.

[LaBombo]

Dont forget the roadrunners... Meep meep

Or its cutlery-wielding natural enemy...

I wonder if Worf would fare better than the Coyote does.

 

He looks up in the sky and sees half a mesa on a downward track toward him. Holds up a sign: "This is NOT dying with honor."

Heh ... we say that in my business (can't believe I'm relating my business to this thread twice in one day) when former 'pop' stars work the orchestra circuit.

Someone told me that a lot of the folks who play in the trans-Siberian Orchestra are former rockers...

[Squirrel]

The older I get the less I like climbing up on ladders to wash windows and change lightbulbs

I think he gets a couple pinch hit attempts this week, maybe Friday. He starts on Monday the 16th.
