Game Thread: Twins vs. Brewers, 5/29 - 7:10pm

[Riverbrian]

I am back and glad that wife could not read this post.

 

The poor thing... There are some adult Reading classes in the LA area... I'm sure.

[LaBombo]

Hitting a lot of guys tends to tie into not pitching so many innings, though.

Usually, although Detroit control wizard Fister (knock it off) led the majors with 11. Since he's hardly ever wild, I'm guessing he's just mean.

 

Deduno's 5 wild pitches last year project to nearly double the 2012 league leaders' totals if he'd pitched 200+ innings.

 

So he's versatile.

[Riverbrian]

Parmelee is evidently Doug Mientkiewicz.

 

Also I loved the split screen of Deduno celebrating and praying. He is my favorite Twins player by far and I don't even care if he implodes.

 

God... you and me... Complete agreement. He's too interesting to watch.

It's really sweet that Ashburyjohn uses her as his avatar, though.

+1 sir. A double-like button is also needed. I'm not sure even Chief could top that one.

Someone should start a poll where we can vote on our favorite Twins player.

Paging Chief once again for entendre-patrol, double or triple I'm not sure.

Consider it started.

 

Deduno

You are on fire tonight my friend.

Just a minute, I've got to put my kids to bed before they try to read over my shoulder.

[ashbury]

control wizard Fister (knock it off)

 

Giggity. Should we launch an all-dirty all-star team discussion? I'll nominate Dick Pole.

 

/ never mind, the favorite Twin survey takes precedence. I'll go with Rusty Kuntz.

Don't want anyone in your house laffing before you get the jokes?

[glunn]

Either a walk or a home run by Parm would be perfect here.

[LaBombo]

You are on fire tonight my friend.

No, in a good way, really!

[Riverbrian]

Yeah... where is Chief? It's only what... 1:30PM in Tucson...can't be past his bedtime.

[stringer bell]

Boy, that's two very, very nice defensive plays in a very tough spot. Nice job. Made better by the shot of Deduno practicing winning the Olympic gold medal after Parmelee's catch.

Correction, that is WBC title.

[Riverbrian]

No, in a good way, really!

 

Awesome... I'm well versed in the story of what happened to the drummer from Spinal Tap.

[ashbury]

How do you feel about the strikeout?

[ashbury]

Yeah... where is Chief? It's only what... 1:30PM in Tucson...can't be past his bedtime.

 

It's still Memorial Day there, he's riding on a float downtown.

[big dog]

Correction, that is WBC title.

 

You are correct, sir.

[glunn]

Awesome... I'm well versed in the story of what happened to the drummer from Spinal Tap.

 

But do you know what happened to Agnetha Faltskog?

[stringer bell]

Florimon must feel left out. He is the only player who doesn't have exactly one hit tonight.

[ashbury]

You are correct, sir.

 

A correct correction? I think that violates some TD policy, doesn't it?

[Riverbrian]

It's still Memorial Day there, he's riding on a float downtown.

 

What? There is no water to float on in Tucson.

 

​hey... That accidentally rhymes.

[glunn]

How do you feel about the strikeout?

 

Pretty disappointed, but if Deduno and the Twins get the win, it will be a great night.

[LaBombo]

Yeah... where is Chief? It's only what... 1:30PM in Tucson...can't be past his bedtime.

But it's 1:30 tomorrow, so the game was over last night for him.

[ashbury]

What? There is no water to float on in Tucson.

 

​hey... That accidentally rhymes.

 

What are the waters you float on in Tucson? Catchy, I'll try and find a Beatles tune that matches it.

[stringer bell]

Perk stretches his K lead. I understand Chief is enjoying the earlybird special at Denny's.

[stringer bell]

A correct correction? I think that violates some TD policy, doesn't it?

I'd apologize, but I'm pretty sure a heartfelt apology would also be a violation.

[ashbury]

But it's 1:30 tomorrow, so the game was over last night for him.

 

In that case I hope he has some tips to share on tomorrow night's game - I need to pay my sports book a visit anyway.
