I'm playing a good practical joke on my youngest son today. I'm with him on the bus currently with his class on a field trip. He's thrilled that I am taking the day off of work to accompany his clas

Good Morning Twins fans!  Get ready for punch number two today.  On the mound this morning (Minnesota time) is the now fearsome pitching phenom Jose Berrios.  He is part of the now pitching one two pu

Baltimore Color Guy: "I don't think Berrios is as good as his numbers right now".   Wait, you're saying Berrios is NOT the greatest pitcher in baseball history?  Bold.

Should have scored way more there.  Shame on Gimenez and Buxton.  Good on the rest of 'em!  Polanco's really heating up!

The good news: The Twins loaded the bases again.

 

The bad news: The Twins left the bases loaded again.

I liked this only because of how painfully true it is.

I wonder if Rosario is ever given the take sign. Is there such a thing as the take sign?

Great to get 3 runs, but man, you had a chance to do some damage and we have Gimenez and Buck up there...somewhat predictable results.

 

Could have locked up the game there with a couple hits from those guys.  They failed miserably.  On the plus side, the way Tillman's pitching they might have another chance with the top of the lineup.

Along the same lines of the pranks mentioned earlier, baseball teams have traditionally had a prank where they send a clubhouse boy or new bat boy to the bullpen to get the key to the batter's box.  Stories I've heard about this happening never cease to be funny.

During college, I worked at MSP airport as a baggage handler.  Once we had a new guy, and told him the next flight had a number of oversized bags, and we would therefore need a "bin stretcher" (a bin being the name for the baggage compartments in the bottom of the plane).

 

We took it to the next level by letting him know that we didn't own one, so he would need to go to United to borrow theirs.  Once he left, we called United, told them the gag, and had them send him onto another airline.  An hour and 6 airlines later, he returned, very embarrassed he was unable to complete the task set for him.

 

This sounds shockingly like the breast plate stretcher...

If right now means this game, Berrios is perfect. . . .  So he's wrong about that.
