Game Thread: Twins v. Indians, 4/19/15 @ 1:10 PM

[ashbury]

What are the chances our LFer could have ma-... wait, what?

[formerly33]

 

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE BLEEPING ME! ARCIA!

You're an idiot. Hawk is not the kind of guy I would want to model myself after.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

Ohhhh Kaye.

Exactly.

 

Some excitement on the field, even if it is what would be known in football as "garbage time"

[big dog]

Glad Arcia caught that ball.  He wasn't very strong near the wall last year.  To say the least.

Oh, uh-oh. This is a special note to all mods on TD to kindly overlook that.

[JB_Iowa]

 

I don't mean to go off topic, but what is wrong with the bleeping KC Royals? Herrera just threw 2 100 mph pitches at Brett Lawrie's head.

 

I think the Royals are feeling targeted and are perhaps retaliating.  It seems like every day I read a tweet about how many Royals have been HBP so far this season.

 

And, of course, Graham took out Rios by fracturing his pinky.

[Squirrel]

Hahahaha, that was actually pretty good, but not sure this crowd quite got that.

[Squirrel]

Oh, uh-oh. This is a special note to all mods on TD to kindly overlook that.

It's okay. I know the two of you are friends.

Well, they could handle it at a more professional level.

It wasn't on purpose, and the Royals have been playing like donkeys since they were born. That is why I rooted for the Giants.

[big dog]

Who would like Graham to throw a DP ball here?  I know I've got my hand up.

[big dog]

Pistols at dawn!

[formerly33]

Oh, yes... Next time I make an enemy I'll have to add them to my friends BEFORE I start slandering them. Thanks for pointing that out to me. I'll keep it in mind.

[Joe Mauer shows up for batting practice and strolls casually over to Paul Molitor.]

Molitor: Joe!
Mauer: So, Molly, earlier I was saying today's a pretty big day and you didn’t really respond, so I’m just gonna tell you, it’s my birthday! Uh. Tada!
Molitor: No, no, no, can’t be. I distinctly remember: your birthday was last year.
Mauer: That’s the funny thing about birthdays–they’re kind of an annual thing! Uh... Molly, I’m turning thirty-two, and I wanted to ask, uh, what I really want for this birthday… Actually what I really want for my birth–want for my birth–
Molly: Okay, Joe, please, stop with the mumbling. You know how I feel about the mumbling–blah-blah-blah-blah, it’s very annoying. [Joe looks hurt.] I’m just teasing, you’re amazing, you're the best, Joe!

Mauer: Uh, I want to see the fireworks tonight.
Molitor: Uuuuh... What?
Mauer: Oh... well, I was hoping you would let me see the fireworks.
Molitor: Oooooh; that. I almost forgot about those. Duh...

Psst, Brian. Have you been mentorin'? Pretty good.

Oh, uh-oh. This is a special note to all mods on TD to kindly overlook that.

Yes, calling someone an idiot is the prototype of TD policy violations.

[formerly33]

 

Pistols at dawn!

Call out the paramedics beforehand. They'll be working overtime for awhile.

[Riverbrian]

Alright... I think I know the answer but here is the scenario for consideration. 

 

I was excited for the Twins season to begin... So I wore Twins Apparel for the entire opening week. 

 

Until the First game of the White Sox Series... That Day I wore a Mariners Shirt. 

 

After we lost the next 3 games... I Put the Mariners shirt on again and the Twins Won... So I kept wearing it..

 

And Yes... my wife washed it yesterday so I couldn't wear it... But It's back on Today. 

 

This Mariners shirt has been worn for every Twins Victory this year. The Twins have lost every game on days that I wore a different shirt. 

 

So... I'm right in thinking.. I have to wear this thing until it's able to stand up on it's own. 

[formerly33]

Ballgame!

[Hrbowski]

The poor Indians got eaten by the crocodiles, boo hoo hoo.

[big dog]

 

How is that a Jane Austen reference?

You don't know the tie between Jane Austen and Tchaiwhoovsky and you think we don't get Danny Kaye?

 

Ummm...what were we talking about?

[JB_Iowa]

Naptime!

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Terribly obese lady has sung!

[big dog]

 

Oh, yes... Next time I make an enemy I'll have to add them to my friends BEFORE I start slandering them. Thanks for pointing that out to me. I'll keep it in mind.

Most of my friends are idiots.  Of course, I'm an idiot so we get along.

Bring us to the WS this year! Go in your Mariners jersey and hold up a sign stating the facts so you don't get booed. You'll be FAMOUS. Ooooh. [always33 gives a legitimate schoolgirl giggle.]

[formerly33]

Are you sure you don't mean piranhas?

[Jerr]

All we do is win series

If you're still wearing that shirt when you come to town, I'm putting the two drunk cousins in between us.

Do you have to wear it the whole day?

 

Perhaps just wear it during the game. How dirty can it get in that time span?

You have to keep wearing it but it appears that washing it did not reduce its power.  Just make sure that it's dry by game time.

Moses Harry Horwitz was his name

 

I wonder if when he was filming his movies he was thinking -- I brought down Egypt, I was involved with splitting a sea, I was married to Lily Munster, and I had a kick-ass beard, and now I am making films that will never win me an Oscar and have a real bad barber.
