Time for Joe to hit one out.

[zchrz]

Wow the fans doing the yells are annoying.

[ashbury]

Wow the fans doing the yells are annoying.

WOWwwwwwwww, you're right.

[USAFChief]

 

Wow the fans doing the yells are annoying.

Ha!

 

Mrs Chief is in the kitchen, not even watching, and she said the same thing.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

They all jinxed it.

Alright, who didn't use Barks' tried and true jinx proofing? (Trying to remember exactly what it was, but it was surefire. There were eskimos somewhere...)

[USAFChief]

3-1 meatball, and that's the swing Mauer takes?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Dozier! Intentionally remains upright going into second, in order to disrupt the throw to first. The opposite of the take out slide.

 

Would getting decapitated be considered "taking one for the team"?

[USAFChief]

 

Just got back from dinner. What happened to the 3-1 lead I entrusted you all with?

Regression.

[zchrz]

Probably an obscure reference but it sounds just like Squidbillies, all I can imagine is about 10 redneck squids named Early are in the stands.

[Squirrel]

Ha!

 

Mrs Chief is in the kitchen, not even watching, and she said the same thing.

Mrs. Chief knows a thing or two. Smart she is.

[ashbury]

Four up four down for Graham. I smell longball coming.

[USAFChief]

 

Mrs. Chief knows a thing or two. Smart she is.

She married well.

[ashbury]

We got away cheap against Cutch. Still holding my breath.

[zchrz]

 

She married well.

 

Polygamy is illegal.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Yeah this is courting disaster

[ashbury]

She married well.

I thought your last name was... uh, never mind.

 

/ meanwhile zchrz got in there first.

[USAFChief]

 

Polygamy is illegal.

Thankfully.

 

Imagine multiple honey-do lists.

[zchrz]

Ha Marte is really helping us out in this series

[USAFChief]

Trivia...how do you score that in your scorebook?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Wow, ya don't see that so often... A strike 'em out, batter's interference double play.

[Bark's Lounge]

You don't see that too much.

 

Plouffe and T-Hunt are gonna do something good. I can feel it my bones.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Outstanding! Almost never see that.

[ashbury]

That does not look good, Suzuki shaking that hand like that.

 

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

 

She married well.

 

And is not wanting for fresh water?

 

Was it a spring wedding?

[Craig Arko]

Good job, J.R. You don't get shot.

Unless Hu does it.

 

Hope Zuke is OK. He's one tough dude.

[ashbury]

Trivia...how do you score that in your scorebook?

E9. I don't like Hunter's defense out there.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

E9. I don't like Hunter's defense out there.

Bingo!

 

(Er, i mean Eingo)

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Also Suzuki's pitch call-- "just give me your heat down the middle" on 3-2

 

Because a base on balls there is near fatal

[stringer bell]

It is 2 unassisted.

[USAFChief]

 

E9. I don't like Hunter's defense out there.

Winner.
