FINALLY getting to TF tomorrow. Only other game I’ve been to this year, opening day, in Denver. 
 

Cool beans!

 

I finally made it back in May, myself.

 

I saw a game and a half.

Obviously I need to learn me some TD link usage skulls

[twinkies]

Where can I see the bullpen usage?

Will it share if a player was dry-humped?

The Fox broadcasted mentioned that someone was warming and ready during Thornburgs 1st inning of work...

[BH67]

Only one run allowed in the last 26 innings.  That trend would be nice to continue "at the corner of Carnegie and Ontario"* next week.

(*Cleveland announcer Tom Hamilton's standard phrase at the first pitch of a Guardians home game.)

Well you've probably heard of his dad Richard Thornburg the reporter from Die Hard. Better known as Dick

Oh, he's referring to me and my high jinx of posting links that take people to shoe websites  Because I like shoes and just want to share

You can look up Samurai Jack chicken episode on your own. I am too lazy.

 

But it might be a useful reference to meme with all these chicken images.

I love cold beans, but the Mrs failed to appreciate the resulting music, said it was either her or my cold bean habit. Had to think long and hard on that one. Some people just cant appreciate natural art forms.

And i would posit they are of universal interest.

How can one stand not being well shod?

Sorry to hear that. That music is a celebrated art form in this household.

Twins win!

Feels so good to have a game where the bats come alive, the pitching locks down a lineup that they should, and the bullpen provides stress free baseball. Absolutely have to win tomorrow with Ryan on the bump against a bad starter once again. Just hoping we get the A lineup, but I have my doubts with a huge 5 game series coming up on the road against a team that's much more important to beat. Leave the weekend no worse standings wise than when it started.

Until tomorrow,

ENJOY YOUR CHICKEN!

I think its more important to go into CLE with 2 game lead.  Play A team tomorrow while CLE plays Boston.  Put pressure on them

How refreshing! Fox's play-by-play crew called out the official time of the first pitch. As someone who keeps score, and has 'official start time' on my scorecard. Everybody calling a game should do this, in my OCD opinion...

That should be CDO. It needs to be alphabetized.

A shame how the Twins had a runner on 3rd with nobody out and they can't even make contact. Embarrassing stuff.

Question: To prevent this out come in the future, if Buxton steels home on strike three of the third out of the inning, by when must he touch the plate for the run to count?
