Article: Game Thread: Twins v Royals, 4/3 @ 3:10pm CT

[stringer bell]

Happy Birthday Mike! I hope your predictions come true and that this game is played. Pretty gray down here in Rochester.

[Joe A. Preusser]

Twins will win today. My first (and possibly last) prediction of the year.

 

In fact, I think the universe owes us a 9-0 start. I want it!

[Jerr]

 

Casey Jones on a thread, nothing BUT a win after that lucky omen!!!!!

[Jerr]

 

I predict a win today. It's my bday, they won't let me down on my bday. 

 

Grossman and Castro will be the hitting stars, with Haley pitching 6 shutout innings after Santana has an allergy attack.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

 

Not sure about your "Santana has an allergy attack"  

[USAFChief]

 

I have to figure out a way to listen to the game on the radio.

 

 

Just spitballin' here...maybe try listening to it on a radio.

[Mike Sixel]

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

I was trying to think of a "good" reason Haley would have to pitch 6 innings.....and it's allergy season in Portland.

96.3 FM and yeah it's on a radio

Yeah, like I have one of those things laying around the house.

 

Seriously, though... I don't have a radio in the house.

[Mike Sixel]

I can stream it free, if I live in Minnesota and have a radio, but I can't listen to it free in Portland, or on my phone. Sigh.

Twins are playing in Mn. Birthday Boy, allergies here haven't kicked in, yet for any true Minnesotan    

 

I had my name scroll cross the TV, as Casey Jones always did, during that song.

If one sent in their Birthday date. Thanks Aunt Ruth!!!!

[Mike Sixel]

 

 

perhaps my favorite movie ever.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

My car has a radio.

 

And i will spend a bit of time in it while the game is going on.

 

But alas, i think i am a wee bit outside 96.3's broadcast range.

 

How come i got things to do on Mondays?

 

I gotta get my posting in early.

I knew someone would point that out! More like, I was thinking, man, these allergies are annoying. Oh, wait, that's why ESan misses time! but, ya, I really would rather just have ESan be very good...

MLB doesn't allow internet broadcasting of games. I think that is a mistake in growing the game or selling radios, Brock?????

Ya, I know. I've never quite understood why I can't listen to the game on the phone, and hear those ads. Well, I do understand, I just don't like it.

 

I think I have xm radio for another week or so, I could sit in the car and run down my battery, I think.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

perhaps my favorite movie ever.

And it starts out with a baseball game... of sorts.

[notoriousgod71]

Well, that's an interesting lineup to start off the season...

[Mike Sixel]

 

Well, that's an interesting lineup to start off the season...

 

Mauer and Castro against a leftie!

[Jerr]

 

Well, that's an interesting lineup to start off the season...

Not official, as far as I know it's 'predicated".

KSTP says the lineup is out.....

[Brock Beauchamp]

Mauer batting cleanup today.

 

As absurd as it sounds, what the hell. Run with it. I'm amused.

[Jerr]

Mauer in cleanup, Dozier leads off.... Grossman second, this can be entertaining

Kids these days!!

 

How the heck do you get the 'CCO school closings, and the soybean futures??

[Mike Sixel]

 

perhaps?

I really like Raiders of the Lost Ark....I kind of flip flop between those two.

[nokomismod]

Pretty excited for opening day and my fingers are crossed that the young talent starts to really produce this season.

 

Also, here's my vote for pump the crowd up music this year.
