How do you need to use an openet in the second game after the all-star break?

I looked t up and I still don't understand the punch line.

You will. I promise

[RickOShea]

DP for buck!

[RickOShea]

Buck got good contact there.  Did you see how solidly he hit his foot?

[RickOShea]

I know it's the first, but I wonder if Buck or Rocco even considered a possible bunt.  A small victory, but nonetheless, a positive one.

[Parfigliano]

Buxton could reach Mendoza Line today.

[USAFChief]

2 out RBI.

 

How you win games. 

[mrtwinsfan]

And the Farmer bails em out ????

In German, wer means who. The German word for where is wo.

[IndianaTwin]

Farmer -- still outstanding in his field!

I prefer the more recent usage of wer... Meaning why the heck aren't our best hitters in the lineup? 😁

[Robert Floren]

What's the temp in Oakland?  Cooler normally.  About 90 here in WV.

[RickOShea]

Does anyone in MLB, have a better fitting uniform than Pablo?

Nope.  He's a dead pull power guy.

Wer's on first?

[IndianaTwin]

Atteberry and Gladden talking about the QuikTrip thingie where a triple wins a fan some money. 

Atteberry: This is a good park for triples and a good staff to do it against.

Gladden: Yeah, I don't know if there's been a study on that, but this seems like a park where you could get a lot of them. 

 

Uh, Dan, it's called baseball-reference.com, and it's not hard to find ballpark effects.

Tighter isn't necessarily better.

I don't necessarily think it's tight, just better fitting.

Only hit 101 in my corner of NM today.  Been between 105-10 for previous 10 days.  Supposed to be up there for 5 more starting tomorrow.

An old math joke would answer "polar bear seal sin theta....

[RickOShea]

I don't think Morneau and Plouffe are necessarily tight.

Always hated when there were just a few bales left in the field and Dad made me pick them with the pickup. So much easier to put them on the wagon or skid.

Byron u see that by M.A.T.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Taylor lays down the bunt.

I approve.

[Parfigliano]

Anyone have Twins bunt hit on their bingo card?  Take notes Buxton.

[Robert Floren]

I threw many a bale from mowed alfalfa to wagon in my younger day.
