For all the love the Royals get from non-Royal fans, Ventura sure is an @ss.

Well rain is on the way.

 

KC will score a run in the bottom and the game will be called.

Rain is going to miss south

I'm glad you were not correct on this.

[Blake]

 

I wish fans would do a little research and not do "circle me Bert" signs when he's not doing the game.

How about a "circle me Roy" sign

"Circle me Roy" seems wrong on a lot of levels.

I'm more worried about a long delay forcing the game to be decided by bullpen.

Over really weird stuff to. 

 

He went Psycho this year. Getting pissed at a come-backer?

Bert must be fading off into retirement. 

 

He hasn't been around much anymore. He must be down to 4 trips a year now.

Torii gets to first base.

 

Not a bad start to the inning...

[Blake]

I think Twins pitchers should expect and maybe even demand to throw 120 to 140 pitches a game.

 

Unless it is Mr. Pelfrey. 60 and done seems to be  his MO the last few starts. That way, the bullpen feels needed.

Please dont have Escobar bunting

Let's go ahead and not spoil this.

I'd be more worried about the horses and wagons getting stuck in the mud. I think Baby Jesus and the dinosaur will be ok.

[Squirrel]

Yaaaaaaasssssss!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Escobar strikes again!

 

1-28 now? I forget.

[Ultima Ratio]

Ok, now rain cats and dogs!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Yaaaaaaasssssss!

Concur

[Blake]

Escobar!

 

 

[ScrapTheNickname]

What is the lowest batting average that ever led a Twin season?

 

Full season: .279, Todd Walker, 1999.

 

Strike season (1/2 year), .268, John Castino, 1981.

 

So ... this looks to be a "record-setting" year for the Twins in this regard.

[Riverbrian]

 

Ok, now rain cats and dogs!

 

Bark... Can you do this? 

[Squirrel]

Ok, now rain cats and dogs!

No, not yet! Need to make it through the inning.

[FattCrapps]

Oh yeah Roy the book says to always bunt there?

 

Where did you find this book:  Stonehenge?

[Squirrel]

Yaaaaaaaaassssssss!

Ok, now rain cats and dogs!

Has anyone made the visual pun of a medieval royal court populated by felines and canines, with the subtitle "reigning cats and dogs"?

[rghrbek]

3rd attempt at bunting...molly loves the bunt!!!!

[Bark's Lounge]

Wunderbar!

It's not beyond the realm of possibility.

[Squirrel]

Cmon Dozie!

My Windshield Wipers would struggle with a St. Bernard. 

[Ultima Ratio]

We gave the Royals gifts of White Sox blankets -- so it appears.

He's on...

 

Torch passes to Mauer, eh?
