[USAFChief]

Outstanding opener!

 

Huge history buff and this is the kind of thing I love to read.

concur...bit what does your size have to do with being a history buff?

 

Also, maybe mix in a salad here and there.

Wouldn't staring on rain days result in rust? I mean, when I leave stuff out on a rainy day, it ends up rusty.

 

Mrs Chief was just kindly reminding me of this phenomenon during our summer monsoons. And reminding me.

 

 

And reminding me.

Hmm, according to my SIL, you've not had much of a monsoon this year. (she lives in the Phoenix area, Glendale to be exact)

 

Which suggests the stuff that's rusting might have been left outside for a year or three.

4) Garver can hit a home run followed by an Arraez single.

 

 

 

Garver, then Arraez.

 

It does make a fan wonder...

 

[Diesel]

Gibson still looks ill to me. Feel really bad for the guy, but I hope he can persevere, both for the team’s and his stake

You're probably thinking of "BUFF" though, truth be told, I'm not that big and I can't fly, but, probably can cover the rest.

Four years later, at the age of 32, a penniless Larry Corcoran was dead and buried in an unmarked grave. 

 

Well that's rather cast a gloom over the evening now, hasn't it?

Silver plate? I won't have it in the house!

 

*Oh, wait, wrong python sketch.

[Blake]

 

Where is Sano

Back problems.

I bet you didn't even try the salmon mousse! 

[Blake]

I prefer Lupin mousse.

Some first responders found out about his story and got him a headstone in 2009. So there's that at least.

First pitch 7:30, per the Twitterverse

[USAFChief]

Lapanta just said they expect to start around 730 CDT.

Researching this was a blast. SABR's Baseball Biography Project is pretty awesome.  

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Did we win yet?

[Blake]

 

Did we win yet?

We are all winners. Haven't you seen the awesome "this site rules" threads?

 

In fact, just for you!

What was this about people not wearing enough hats?

 

I am routing for the Crimson Permanent Assurance. They remind me of the Twins.

[mrtwinsfan]

1st pitch 7:30,   and cleveland is  thinking Hand might be hurt ?   this kid will be here friday

@JeffPassan
The Cleveland Indians are calling up right-handed reliever James Karinchak, a source tells ESPN. In 30.1 minor league innings this season, Karinchak has struck out 74 batters. Yes, 81% of Karinchak’s outs have come via strikeout.

What is the meaning of that?

[FlauerPauer]

Let's get this big time W tonight! Go Twins! Corbin is a Syracuse native. Buddy is friends with a relative of his and said that Corbin was going for the highest payday rather than the best team. Time to make that greedy SOB pay!

[ashbury]

We're underway.

 

I suggest jumping to an early lead. The weather radar forecast I looked at doesn't rule out storm cells developing and passing through the area.

[ScrapTheNickname]

Get that young man a chin strap!

How do you differentiate him from virtually every other pro athlete in this regard? (And perhaps virtually every other person?)

[ashbury]

I suggest jumping to an early lead.

Ouch. This is the opposite of what I recommended, you realize.

[FLTwinsGuy]

Nice pitch kyle

[mrtwinsfan]

Boom 1-0 come on gibby need ya tonight

[mrtwinsfan]

Yup, gotta play ahead,   Quick tonight BATS

[ashbury]

Eddie takes a chance with the throw to 1B and it pays off big time!

[Otto von Ballpark]

I suggest jumping to an early lead.

Anthony Rendon says, "thanks for the advice!"
