The Twins bench.

It’s taking my heart, my soul, my money, and leaving me drowning in my tears.

That Twins bench 

Makes me want to lay down and cry for a hundred years.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

And the answer to who pitches the 9th will forever be a mystery 

[AussieG]

Ouch.

Man, watching this team right now makes me long for the days of sniffing jet fuel on the tarmac in Minot. Hmmm, maybe not. Honey, can you pass me the Tylenol?

[AlwaysinModeration]

It’s over now.

It's been over for several weeks, except that the standings didn't reflect it until recently.

Interesting, I think the next lyric is “when it’s all gone wrong”
