There. Much better.

 

Likey, likie, liksy.

[spinowner]

 

There. Much better.

Did everyone notice that Mahtook goes by Mikie even before the adjustments?

[snepp]

 

But this alternates L&R. Ausmus did the same with his batting order.

 

I could see Mauer/Kepler getting flipped, would probably prefer it, but a minor quibble.

[spinowner]

 

There. Much better.

Thanks, Chiie.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

There. Much better.

I wasn't paying attention...

 

Is Kylsie Gibson pitching?

[spinowner]

Yes, and Jordy Zimmerman for Detroit.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

My!

 

You have all gone to considerable lengths to make me feel better about my typo.

 

I am touched!

[Squirrel]

Thanks, Chiie.

ChiTownsie works much better, Spinny.

[Blake]

 

I am touched!

As we all are.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

ChiTownsie works much better, Spinny.

Thanks for clarifying.

 

I probably would have left the s out, or used the entire name, both of which might have been viewed dimly...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh yeah, i still haven't figured out the significance of thought 4...

 

Sorry i am slow.

 

But don't tell me... yet.

[spinowner]

I think the colloquial terminology is "tetched".

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I think the colloquial terminology is "tetched".

Golly gee whiz. If 'tain't one thing, 'tis another.

 

One of these days, i'll learn me to spell...

[Blake]

Sorry i am slow.

But don't tell me... yet.

It's the thought after thought three and the thought before thought 5?

 

[Blake]

 

Thanks for clarifying.

Yeah, my mind went there too and I decided I didn't want to risk my monitor exploding from a death-ray stare.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Kylsie bore down on Upton...

[PDX Twin]

Nice save in that inning. Gibsie even had a few swings and misses.

[h2oface]

Just another example of why you run the grounder out full speed. Sano would have been on base if he did. They all do it though. Routine grounder, lope down the first. What else have they got to do? Never ceases to amaze me. Run the damn thing out like you can beat the throw!

[h2oface]

Gibson getting calls? Pitch 3 to Castellanos was 4-6 inches outside, called a strike.

We're both right.

[spinowner]

Nice solid by Joey!

[spinowner]

Nice solid by Robert!

Truth to tell, i'd have gone with "Row row row yer boat" as it gets around.

[h2oface]

Avila smart. Setting up behind the plate/line. Keeping the play in front of him. I wish our catchers would do that.

[Don Walcott]

Sweet Music!!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Let us now add to the lead.

 

More runs, please.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh yeah...

 

I let a sad kid play some games on my video gaming system.

 

He was consoled.

[mikeee]

GO TWINS!!!!!!   whoop!

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Bases loaded, no outs...

 

Lets do the other thing this time...
