Plastic bags be the problem, matey! Rip-stop nylon shopping bags are the solution. Light, super-strong, and they'll last a few years. Much like aluminum, rip-stop nylon has a very good strength to weigh ratio, making it good for Festivus, and for shopping!

Be sure to wash them as studies have shown they end up being bacteria raising homes.

And probably more monuments of Joe Mauer Alone. 

 

Molitor too.

[mikeee]

tex is due for  a wiff

[howeda7]

Who thinks this will end with the winner scoring less than 10?

[howeda7]

I think I'd rather see O'Rourke here, Mollie.

Man the Yankees play long games...  No stats to back that up.

[Gibby]

This at-bat is terrifyiing.

[Jerr]

 

Man the Yankees play long games...  No stats to back that up.

And i just thought it was when they play Boston!

Wow, Sano's line drive almost gave the 3rd base ump a shot at a knee replacement.

 

Let's go Trevor <clap, clap, clap clap clap>

I'd never wish such an injury on a fellow human being. However, this is Angel Hernandez we're talking about so that's different.

My sister is a Red Sox fan and she has commented many times at how long those games are when the Red Sox and Yankees play.

[Gibby]

The crowd sounds like they are watching golf.

[DiscGolfer]

I've been a proponent of Duensing more often than not, need's to come through big here.

[USAFChief]

 

Are we sure Colorado didn't want Reyes? They talked to Toronto about him multiple times. Given the way that franchise is run, I wouldn't take anything for granted.

Well, what's been reported is that Toronto tried for months to get Colorado to TAKE Reyes, and Colorado finally relented.  

 

We also know, if MLBTR can be trusted, that no team put in a claim on Reyes when he went on waivers this month, apparently fearing Colorado would dump him on them for nothing.

 

So yeah, as much as we can know anything about MLB trades, we know Tulo went pretty cheaply, and we know Colorado took back a lot of salary on a player no other team wants.

Now that is some seriously trivial knowledge. I salute you!

[Jerr]

Twins have 15 hits and it is only the bottom of 6!!!!

I may have to listen to the end in bed,as Ihave an early start tomorrow.

[SwainZag]

That's a big K there for Duensing! 

[FattCrapps]

Thought for sure they'd call that a ball.

 

Because Yankees.

[DiscGolfer]

oh Brian

[Gibby]

 

  Yep, whoever leads at 4 hours, wins.

[Jham]

Man, Yankees have a good line up...

[Jerr]

Ok, it will take more than 10 runs to win!

[DaveW]

**** Duensing and **** Molitor for bringing him in in that situation. Jesus ****ing God damn mother ****ing Christ.

[FattCrapps]

Nice pitch.

[DaveW]

Man, Yankees have a good line up...

they have an average lineup that mashes **** pitchers.

[Danchat]

That's our bullpen for ya. 

[jimbo92107]

Jeeze, I've just been trying to get the game feed back, and the instant I do, Duensing just gave up a two run homer. Seriously, one second after I get the game feed back. Boom.

 

Get Duensing out of there!!

[DaveW]

8 man bullpen and I feel "good" about one and "ok" about 2 others. Sweet roster.

[Winston Smith]

Haven't they traded Deunsing yet?

[Puckett34]

Now O'Rourke is warming up.
