This goes well with diarrhea and gut rot rum.

You have to admire the marketing department of a product whose name highlights the Gravy before the Steak. They apparently know their end-user. (And their product.)

 

"On-Cor. Come for the gravy. Stay for the steak."

Trevor May's season ERA is now below 5. Does this last?

[JB_Iowa]

May lookin' good.

[Craig Arko]

That's a good one.  Not exactly what I was remembering but a good one.

 

The other thing that the eaglets remind me of is the backside (raincoat side) of a flasher.

Do people eat this stuff?  (I don't buy much packaged stuff.)

Ash, I didn't even notice. That's hilarious!

We were huge Homer and Jethro fans growing up.

"Charms of the city" is still the song i think of to characterize moving east as a kid.

Though the music isn't so catchy, i always like 'one hippopotami.

 

But yeah, "when the fella there is through, with what he's gonna do, you'll have no place to wear your crown."

 

And of course "Hail to thee, fat person!"... "So i'd clean the plate, 4, 5, 6 times a day..."

I see bones.

[JB_Iowa]

Well, Trev .... looks lke you better make 2 runs work.

I eat this stuff every day. I weigh 800lbs. and smell like a very sour french cheese.

 

If you ever need a date, you know where to find me.

Is this an ode to umpires?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

I see bones.

"i see your spine. and you spine looks divine. it's exactly like mine. now doesn't that seem strange."

It's an album by Allan Sherman: My son the nut.

 

The best known song from it is "Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah" which is a setting of a letter from camp to classical music (i should know the tune off hand, but i don't)

 

 

[Craig Arko]

Brilliant pitching is a real treat.

[formerly33]

 

"i see your spine. and you spine looks divine. it's exactly like mine. now doesn't that seem strange."

Hey, look what's in there.
Look at that, it's a stamp.
It's a 1922 Mckinley ultramarine blue with imperfect perforations.
I've gotta get that out and put in my collection.

I hope so. I love watching him pitch. He's won me over as a fan; I would be quite disappointed if he ever got sent down to AAA

[Craig Arko]

C'mon, Babe Herrmann.

Twins 2, Red Sox 0 after 7. May now has 9 strikeouts.

Dance of the Hours.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

 

Dance of the Hours.

That's right!

 

Sorry i blanked on it... I think i recognize that section of Dance of the hours when it comes up, but don't recognize it the other way.

[Vanimal46]

Very refreshing to see the 9 k's on the board.. One of our many "flaws" the national writers are pointing out as reasons the Twins can't keep up this season. How do you like us now?!

[LaBombo]

Without tonight's tremendous start factored in May sits at an xFIP of 3.84 and a FIP of just 3.11.  After tonight his K/BB ratio should clock in at right around 4 to 1.

 

A .352 BABIP has (had, after tonight?) gone a long way toward masking what has otherwise been a terrific start to the season by May.

[mnsportsgeek]

How long until we start scoring runs again? Is it just a Fenway park thing?
