Morrison has reached base safely in 18 straight games? Did I read that correctly?

[Brock Beauchamp]

Three pop outs to infielders. Exciting baseball!

[Brock Beauchamp]

Come on, Byron. Stop doing that.

[DocBauer]

Buxton baby!

[bighat]

Buxton with the grab-aroo!

[BoofBonser]

Yep, that man is back

[DocBauer]

Worth the price of admission.

 

Not worth the price of a couple of dogs and a couple of beers, but worth the price of admission. Lol

[Winston Smith]

Looks like Terry was right passing on Trout to take Gibson.

[gil4]

 

Don't stop at 3 Twinkies!

I never do.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Buxton was laying off some close pitches there. Nice to see.

 

Unfortunately, the ump had a pretty liberal strike zone.

 

Still, good takes.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Heh. Mauer. I like the effort.

[Teflon]

Wow - it's hard to tell Mauer and Buxton apart running the bases. No it's not.

Mauer’s the white guy.

 

Also the slow guy.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Seriously, did Gibson spend the offseason going to a therapist? He has such a presence on the mound that he frustratingly lacked in previous seasons.

[BoofBonser]

 

I never do.

I'm graduating next Sunday, senioritis is attacking my grammar skills

[DocBauer]

I'm a fun guy! But this beachball stuff is a load of crap! Penalize the home team or do something about it.

I spent close to a decade with Anaheim as my home team.

 

The beach balls are pretty fun, actually.

 

But if one is getting out to the field every inning, it needs to be curtailed.

 

FTR, fans who hit them out onto the field and deprive everyone else of fun are often booed.

[DocBauer]

Do these umps moonlight in the NBA?

That's OK. I liked it better the way you wrote it, except now I'm hungry.

 

Congrats, btw. What school?

They need to install vinyl detectors at the gates.

[Blake]

Gibson is doing a pretty good job of managing the Angels lineup.

Let's eat Grandma.

 

Let's eat, Grandma. 

 

Commas save lives.

 

[Blake]

Gibson did pretty well, considering the beachball crap was breaking up the rhythm he was getting in to.

Checked profile - "small town SD" = I don't know it. Born in St. Paul, lots of family in the Twin Cities, but never been to ND or SD. I've been to every other state except AK and HI.  

[Aggies7]

How does stadium personnel not just confiscate the stupid beach balls at this point?

EVERY other state? My god man

[bighat]

Six stoppages of play for beach balls so far...unreal.

[Aggies7]

One inning wonders tonight?

[gocgo]

Kind of feel like we are treading water here....waiting for the Angels to take the lead before we start swimming.

We ride buffaloes to school, and then we come back on a colony of prairie dogs.

Kidding, that's only West River SD (Mt. Rushmore is the only nice thing over there)
