I was at the gym, so I couldn't post this, but that three pitch strikeout of Swihart, by May in the 3rd inning was an absolute thing of beauty.

I guess that's what a 2 game losing streak does. And it seems so long in context...

Probably best known these days for playing in the background of the opening of The Big Lebowski.

If the Twins don't get the "Deluxe Apartment in the Sky" tonight. Your on the hook for the one LaBombo.

i don't want to call him a "hero", because "What's a hero anyways?" But some times there's a man, and I'm talking about The Dude here, who's just the right man for the time.

[Craig Arko]

Losing streak over.

[Bark's Lounge]

It's been a quiet night, and that is all good. We have weathered the storm together as a smaller unit and invested our time.

 

Let us raise the Rally Roger and hope for a Twins win!

[zchrz]

Yay finally another win, I was starting to jones after the day and half dry spell!

[Hrbowski]

WE WHUPPED THEM!!! WE WHUPPED THEM ALL!!! YOU'LL THINK TWICE BEFORE MESSING WITH PAUL L. MOLITOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

That about does her.

 

Wraps her all up.

 

I can die with a smile on my face without feelin' the good lord gypped me.

Tomorrow, we can hope for a split, and then it will be splits-ville with Fenway for this season.

Alas, i've not watched enough to make that connection, but i'll remember it next time i hear the choppers landing and hear Radar's announcement...

[stringer bell]

Nice little win for the guys and us, the fans. May looks like he is here to stay.

[big dog]

I expect this ride will slow down (hopefully not crash) but I am sure enjoying it now.

Hard to say, but I do know We Don't Need Another Hero, what with Escobar heating up in the DH slot...

Aaaand... Pannekoeken huis with the save.  Now if the Lightning can just hang on to their lead against the Black Hearts, it'll be a trifec... well, two outta three ain't bad.   Hmmm.   Catchy.   Could be a good song title...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh Ash, was there a winner? Who got the bragging rights? (or is it rites?)

 

I assume Bark, as he had visuals to go with, and provoked the finer discussion.

 

Mmmmm Gravy!

[Bark's Lounge]

Good times.

The real question is this: How do we get beyond "Thunderdome"?

Somehow this post leads me to believe that before this season is over some TD game thread regulars will end up meeting downtown during a game to recreate one of the deeds of Fight Club's Project Mayhem...

Until Santana gets back. He could throw 5 shutouts in a row and still be the one to get pushed out of the rotation.

Who cares who wins, but damn, I could drink myself a bucket of gravy right now. I miss me some home comfort food!

You are correct!

 

Do they really sell it in buckets?
