Wait — did you just take a baseball’s diameter and divide it by two?

No. I'm not capable of that kind of advanced math.

However, clearly YOU did.

[Nine of twelve]

Good job Emilio!

Far worse is the post homer dugout silliness. The white Sox have a robe they give out. They may lose 100 games 

Is it a robe? I thought it was a trench coat representing the roaring 20s and prohibition days.

[USAFChief]

Gallo managed a foul ball that AB!

Someone is printing ALCS tickets for the twins?

I thought is was a trench coat representing...nevermind.

I remember back when Mrs Chief and I were young, we were renting an apartment and the landlord called me one day to ask if he could come over to talk about the amount of heating we were using.

"Sure," I said. "My door is always open."

[CRF]

Somehow...we need to get another run. This game is far from over.

I dont care what the situation is I would never bring in my closer in a non situation unless you absolutely have to.....

After last night, best if it is lined with Kevlar.

[Sutter50]

Top of the Texas order, I want my best to face them

[tony&rodney]

Good game thus far.

[PDX Twin]

Duran seems to have no idea where the ball is going.

[USAFChief]

That'll work.

[Squirrel]

I love those plays 

[RpR]

Vazquez is showing why he was hired.

[NotAboutWinning]

Nicely done 8th boys! Now we need to put them away!

[Nine of twelve]

Love it!

[Squirrel]

Strike 'em out, throw 'em out ...

I think I'm craving a Heath Bar Blizzard ...

Chack  there, 

[IndianaTwin]

If we can pull this one off, we’ll have the Magic Number down to one for each letter of the alphabet. 

And another win tomorrow and we’ll be down to one for each letter of the Christmas alphabet. That’s the version with no L.  

 

[USAFChief]

Not sure why you challenge that.

[Aggies7]

Well that was a silly challenge 

[Nine of twelve]

Challenging because you may as well this late in the game. 

[CRF]

A solo shot is gonna win this game. The question is...which team hits it?

Me, either ... unless they are trying to give another pitcher time to warm up? But that doesn't make sense, either
