Article: Series Preview: Twins @ Red Sox, 5/6 - 6:10pm

[Guest USAFChief]

I was recently appointed to a special task force to make recommendations to enhance governmental transparency. This has already made me miss one Twins game. Isn't that enough?

And just exactly what transpired in this closed-door meeting, hmmmm?

You weren't offered any?

 

I have had offers from people to help me run for City Council, but I am not interested.

[Riverbrian]

Hey, wait...you're getting paid to post on game threads? Sweet! Who do I talk to to set that up?

 

Well... It's an exclusive club... I thought you were part of that club. Obviously not... Practice up and I'm sure an invite will be coming.

Strikeouts versus pitch to contact?

 

So far the Twins are getting some doubles, but in view of all the called third strikes I'd like to see some of the batters adopt swing-to-contact.

[IdahoPilgrim]

I suppose 3-0 lead off Buchholz is nothing to sneeze at, but why do I still have this sense of impending doom? I was really hoping we could blow this open in the 1st inning.

[Joe A. Preusser]

Bucholz 86 pitches in just 4 innings. Well done boys.

[Guest USAFChief]

Glunn, my brother, I say this with the utmost respect...you may want to adjust your snarkmeter to a more sensitive setting.

[ashbury]

Baseball reference team pages do. They call it L/SO

 

Guess I need to find my paypal account and give that site a donation.

I meant the corruption, but you are clearly too upstanding to have caught that.

[Gibby]

Yep, we need a 3 run lead at the very least if we are going to run Perkins out there in the 9th.

I thought I heard Bremer call him Clay butt hole after last inning.

I thought I heard Bremer call him Clay butt hole after last inning.

 

It's a pet name.

[big dog]

It's a good thing Worley can field his position. He's getting plenty of chances.

Beverly Hills City Council... hmm... Discussion on which Rubber Glove Contract should be accepted for sanitary removal of the homeless to Hacienda Heights. Specific Dog Parks for Bichon Frise and Poodles only... Larger Breeds elsewhere.

[IdahoPilgrim]

OK, inning over, minimal damage, blood pressure returning to normal.

[Riverbrian]

Look at that... Mauer swung early.

[Joe A. Preusser]

 

That's breedist. Stop the hate.

The homeless were exiled years ago.

[Guest USAFChief]

Look at that... Mauer swung early.

Took away automatic strike one, and it worked. Me likey.

[snepp]

... It's gonna be hard and a lot of work.

 

I think you're up for it.

I recommend this one, hasn't let me down yet.

I have made it a lifelong goal never to get involved with any woman who can kick my ass. "Hey pal...you're not done yet."

Maybe you can desensitize yourself to dominance issues through exposure to images of familiar cartoon characters exploring these boundaries...

Buchholz looks like he owns a van. Or he looks like he Plays Bass for Deep Purple.

[IdahoPilgrim]

Hey! Did the teams change jerseys there? That looked like a Twins play.

[Willihammer]

Dang, Hammer almost had one

[Jocko87]

Glunn, my brother, I say this with the utmost respect...you may want to adjust your snarkmeter to a more sensitive setting.

 

My snarkmeter is broken from repeatedly slamming from snark to slobber in these game threads.

[Joe A. Preusser]

5 IP, 4ER. For the love of God, somebody get Buchholz some hemmorhoid cream for his sleeve.

[glunn]

That's breedist. Stop the hate.

Interestingly, I have been lobbying for a dog park.

[Riverbrian]

I just want to say that I had stopped eating Potato Salad. There was no reason... Just never ordered... Requested it or thought about it.

 

It's been about 10 years and it just occurred to me that I like Potato Salad.
