Article: Game Thread: Twins v White Sox, 6/22 @ 7:00pm CT

[Hrbowski]

 

I'm looking at the webcast schedule; is this the one from yesterday?

Yes.

[formerly33]

 

Not gonna get me that easy!

Chief told me not to explain jokes...

(And for my next trick, i'm gonna jump a shark. Should be safe if there's no milk involved...)

I thought that was Chief's joke. He's the one who said "same as a cat." Where did that come in?

The .120 BA doesn't contain a lot of room for multi-start weeks, for that matter. Or multi-week stays in the majors. At least, for most players.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

First multi hit game for Buxton??

In the Majors.

 

I'm pretty sure he did it a time or two for the Lookouts.

Please don't tell me you've never seen "Meet the Fockers."

 

 

[Blake]

Okay, the Swan Lake re-enactment by Nunez and Dozier as the ball bounced off the base was kind of cool.

Meant to mention...Boyer's role has gone from 8th inning guy, to 7th inning in a blow out guy, in quite a short time frame.

winner.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Not sure i've seen it either...

 

If i get a chance, i'll check it out.

 

But it didn't seem like a particularly strange response to my query...

 

It was an example, i think, of how small steps can take you very widely afield, if you aren't paying attention...

[USAFChief]

Buxton doubles his season hit total.

 

Would like to see him do that for about 10 series in a row.

[ashbury]

 

 

 

 

Seems like a line of script that might have been a tad difficult to accomplish in one take.

[formerly33]

From Hawk:

 

"High and deep ................................................................... and gone."

[clank2000]

Kumbaya, y'all!

[Squirrel]

I kinda think it's funny how Hawk and Stone don't get along. It's sometimes as if they are each doing their own broadcast.

[SwainZag]

4 HR in a game for the Twins?!? What is this?!

[Riverbrian]

13-2

 

Hah

 

VodkaDave has lost all credibility!!!

 

12-2 my ass

[ashbury]

Buxton doubles his season hit total.

 

Would like to see him do that for about 10 series in a row.

Me too. Nobody's ever gotten 1536 hits in a season before.

[glunn]

It appears that I picked a good day to bet on the Twins.

[USAFChief]

 

Me too. Nobody's ever gotten 1536 hits in a season before.

Which is why we'd both like to see it!

[clank2000]

Can anybody tell me what Adam Eaton's claim to fame is?

[USAFChief]

Happy to have you check in Glunn...but if you're on the TD game thread, you're doing Vegas wrong, my friend.

It was 6-2 when Boyer started warming up. When he got in there, it was 11-2. So no, he's not the blow-out pitcher yet.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

It appears that I picked a good day to bet on the Twins.

Yes.

 

Here's to your unerring financial acumen!

[Riverbrian]

Better return than the stock market

768 hits for you and 768 hits for me would both still be the record.

I had a 5 hour meeting today and just got back from a 2 hour meeting.  I need to rest up before doing anything else, plus I want to collect my winnings before things happen that might cause me to forget.
