Surprised they opted to play for 2 there. 9th inning? Give up a run??

[IaBeanCounter]

Would like to have Larnach run.

Driving up for Tuesday and Wednesday’s game from Indianapolis tomorrow. Couple tough pitching matchups, but I think a sweep is a good possibility. GO TWINS!!!!

You can be happy if you’ve a mind to it.

KC down 8-4 to Boston, top 8

Gotta tell ya, this Twins  squad is looking pretty solid. Festa looks like a very serviceable 4th or 5th starter, trending up. Thielbar is back in form. Jax is dominating. 

[tony&rodney]

Looks like the pitching made good tonight. How about that rookie Festa? Is it getting time to be excited about this team team?

There is no better desert.

 

You’ve obviously not been to a Thanksgiving dinner when Mrs. IT made the pumpkin pie. (It’s actually made from squash, but it’s the recipe from Mama IT, and she called it “pumpkin.”)

Big cities have to much crime!!! They are fun to visit but would never ever live in big city! 

The meth of small towns and rural areas is much scarier, having lived in both.

I think so.

Nodded off at the end, did i.

Nice win. This is the kind of game the Guardians have been winning most of the season. Tide is turning...

[Twins_Fan_in_NJ]

And a certain shortstop isn't far from returning...
