Thanks...

You at least have one nearer to you than I do

Who needs offense when the Twins have starting pitching!

Tonight, Lopez DID offer relief. Good. That is what he is paid to do.

Which is irrelevant given Scotch...

Honestly, I might too 

How about we tack on a half dozen here and let Rodriguez get the 9th?

Internet people have lots of words 

Only because they live in the void which binds.  But not us.  Not guys like us.  It takes hard work.

Ober was great tonight. Jorge Lopez needed 10 pitches to get through the 8th. This is a situation where I'd give Lopez then 9th and save Duran. I would use guys less often, but they might go longer when they get in.

[stringer bell]

Duran for the ninth. I really hope there is no one on when Ramirez is up.

Well, of course not. You misspelled it. It's actually Xzavion.

[Tlaker]

I like the way you think!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Good eye Buck!

The Apple feed just showed a post-season futility graphic — apparently the Detroit Pistons have an active streak of 16 losses. …

and then they just showed the Twins handshake line from their last playoff win in 2004 in the Bronx lol

All this Apple TV angst, people just don't realize that team owners are all on the brink of needing food stamps to survive. Adding this extra income is a really good way to make it harder for fans to watch games. Makes perfect sense.

Oh crap

Where do I send my donation?

[stringer bell]

Cleveland's last win was at New York where they scored three in the ninth to overcome a 2-0 deficit. They started that inning with the top of their order. Really seems too similar. 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

alright Jhoan let’s prove your recent hard contact is just a blip

Just mail cash directly to me. I'll see that it gets to the owners.

Perfect.  I'll put it in the mail with the check to my new Nigerian prince friend!

I smell mail fraud.  Federales no likey.

[stringer bell]

Location with the fastball. That seems to be a problem this year.

You can mail that check to me too, save you the cost of an extra stamp.
