Game Thread: Twins @ Phillidelphia 5:50pm cdt 8/12/2023 ad

[sampleSizeOfOne]

We are up, despite a lack of game thread.

 

And baseballpress seems defunct, and i am too lazy to look elsewhere for cutting and pasting a line up or two.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Will soon return to listening rather than posting...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

What is a Philly?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

And at least "In play, run(s)" resolves into more detail. "Injury delay"  just sits there for ever, begging the question...

We're out here with you, for a while at least.  Must be a nice Saturday night in Minnesota.  State Fair?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I don't blame anyone for fairing the state.

 

I hope they still got the all you can drink for a quarter milk stands...

I will join the thread tonight, looks like some are gonna wait and see after last night's debacle. Understandable. Go Twins!

[Parfigliano]

5 walks.  Probably should take advantage of that

Indeed. And not GIDP. Cripes!

[USAFChief]

How do we only have 1 run off this hack?

[ashbury]

Wanted to mention that sons Bashbury and Crashbury are in attendance at the game tonight.  Below is a photo of pre-game festivities with an unnamed co-conspirator.

Alas, a double play too.

 

But we do have a lead.

Hey Caveman!

That must be a rhetorical question.

I saw some TD festivities were in the making, and was tempted to wend my way to Philly...

Almost looked up the apt Kipling poem...

More likely a trick question, but sometimes it is hard to tell with @USAFChief
