We can pick up more a tenth* of that with eight games (counting tonight) against Oakland and Kansas City.

 

*I apologize in advance.

.254 for his career. 

[USAFChief]

Hahaha.

I used to HATE when good teams pulled that 1st and 3rd **** on my Legion ball team.

 

Props to Rocco for calling it and props to both base runners.

[RickOShea]

We may  have just seen one of the top 5 highlights to be shown at Twins Caravans in January, 2024.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Running game worked out there.

Anyone excited about the bullpen tonight?

Might even say he's suffering a Bruisin. 

[rwilfong86]

Remember when this was a 6-0 game?

[USAFChief]

That's a passed ball

[wabene]

Pablo, I had a car that kept coming out of cruise control. It was just a chunk of **** on the brake pedal sensor, buddy. Hope that helps.

Speaking of that Pablo….. they are the opening band for Collective Soul in my town tonight!!!

 I chose to stay home and listen to this cluster instead …..sigh

[Nine of twelve]

I blame the ASG for screwing up Pablo's routine.

[RickOShea]

If Moran comes in, this game will be tied.  Moran is always good for an extra base hit or a couple of walks.

[Aggies7]

Is this a joke what’s happening lol
