One more out! Get him out!




This stress is NOT good on my shingles.

 

Hopefully this won't cause leaking at the peaks and the joints.

Y'know, I should take a look at my roof sometime, too.

 

EDIT: Hocking beat me to it.

Okay, we've just put you down for the remaining open threads! Playoffs here we come!

 

LOL, you have to choose wisely.

 

Glad I left cleaning until tomorrow - hope to need my broom then.

Mocking the afflicted.......heartless lol!

Good game by most of the TEAM!

[AlwaysinModeration]

That was a great game. Only time I'll be in MInnesota this summer, and nice Twins win. May was quite good; too bad he gave up the Beckham homer, would have been a nice start giving up only one.

 

It also didn't hurt that I caught a foul ball. It came straight back and I snared it...the woman behind me seemed appreciative that I saved her life/her from spilling her beer.

At the beginning of the season, I made a comment that I couldn't figure out why Boyer was on the ML roster.  Boy, was I wrong.  He brings an element out of the pen that we haven't seen in a while.

 

A couple people mentioned it a few pages back but this is a true team -- never know who's gonna get it done on a game-by-game basis, and that is really beneficial in so many ways.  The pitching and the clutch hitting in the first 6 weeks of the season has been a very welcome sight.  Nice to have a team that actually does the things to win games like other teams do too.

3 game thread openers so far this year ... 3 wins!!!

 

Go Twins!

Sign up for a few more please. We can bump people if needed.

[Craig Arko]

Hmmm, after this series ends and an off day Monday, the Twins go to Pittsburgh for a two game series.

 

Projected Pirate starters: Francisco Liriano and Vance Worley.

 

Just so you can plan ahead to watch.

I'm sure the beer was more likely saved than her life. But that's still a worthwhile save.

I guess were planning on them hitting every pitch we throw. It's a new shift. Put your catcher at 2nd. 

 

With no one on base, then really why not?  I can't fathom the umpire would be thrilled with no one there to catch balls, but Suzuki playing a little rover out there, I could get on board.
