Um ... unsubstantial despondence?

Light blue.

[formerly33]

 

Light blue.

I guess those synonyms work.

[TwinsCD]

Rosario go BOOM

 

This is the Kyle Lohse I remember giving up on...

[spinowner]

That ball was smoked!

[wavedog]

This is Rosario's night - he either likes facing Lohse or late night baseball.

[USAFChief]

Rosariozee!

[Halsey Hall]

Nolasco's finally getting some runs behind him.  Roserio really nailed that one.

[USAFChief]

Lady has an accident on the way to the hospital, in labor with twins.

 

She goes into a coma, but the doctors work feverishly and manage to deliver two healthy babies, one boy and one girl.

 

When she comes out of here coma a month later, the doctor gives her the good news, and she's overjoyed.  "I have names picked out from before and everything!  Thank you doctor, thank you!"

 

"Well, that's our job maam, we were thrilled.  And...we didn't really know if you'd pull through, so your brother named the babies."

 

"OH NO," cries the lady.  "My brother is...not too bright.  This could be bad...really bad."

 

"Well, your daughter is named Denise," said the doc.

 

"That's not so bad.  Actually, I kind of like it.  How about my son?"

 

"Denephew."

Adrian Beltre has a removable helmet bobble head being given out next month. How does Eddie the All-Star not have one of those yet?

[spinowner]

Post # 100.

[TwinsCD]

OK, Nolasco has jumped through enough fiery hoops.  Time to put the stock in the bullpen.

[LaBombo]

Not watching tonight but had to check the score. Has Vargas visited any bases bearing bat fragments yet?

Haven't even been watching and I agree.

Hey Guys! Just tuning in, minor league game I was watching finished.

 

Looks like Eddie Rosario is having some kind of a game.

[wavedog]

Yes, Eddie might have a cycle if Vargas wasn't on base ahead of one of his 2 doubles. Eddie has really tagged the ball tonight.

[King]

The DL stint may have done May a favor. Looks good.

[Danchat]

Abad definitely hasn't been close to as sharp as he was earlier this year... the regression will always kick in eventually. Looking at you, Nunez.

[LaBombo]

Fernando did kind of Abad job tonight. Hope he has Agood outing next time.

Vargas is on fire.

[wavedog]

I want that called a strike when we are pitching.

[Foghorn Leghorn]

Weird how well the team plays without plouffe and Jepsen

[wavedog]

Winner!!

[Circus Boy]

 

Well that pickoff was timely.

 

Never met an untimely one.

[AlwaysinModeration]

That was a helluva game thread. Short, to the point, not too many Chief jokes.

 

And ended with a Chicken Dinnah!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Safe at home.

 

For anyone keeping track...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What's blue and doesn't weigh much?

A postal scale on the moon?

[ashbury]

Never met an untimely one.

The thing is that the other team always seems to have a man on base when it happens.
