I knew 7 IP was wishful thinking.

After his second inning, getting through six is pretty significant.

You're kidding. A decade of futility is a long time my dude. 

Not when you’ve won a title. We went 20 years between playoff wins. Royals had 2 years at .500 after their title. Then 6 stinkers. Now back in the mix. I’d take it in a second.

Definitely think it's a back issue for Buck. Was walking gingerly after that at bat.

Cleveland up 9-8 going to the ninth. Clase in for the third straight day, after going 13 pitches Saturday and 20 on Sunday.

Grand ma was a teacher, a school in Bolling Green

Traded in her milking cow for a Singer sewing machine

Guards just keep winning close games. Gotta lose one eventually, right?

No problem for Clase. Cleve won 9-8.

Alright man. I don't believe you for a second, but go ahead and believe you wouldn't complain at all winning 42.9% of all games for a decade. You are too far removed from the dark times of the Twins from 2011-2014. 92 game loss pace for a decade. Yeah right.

Dirt Band, Circle Vol. Two, Track 2. Was just listening to it yesterday.

He's in a Clase of his own.

Why are you yelling at me lol I’m just having fun conversation.

Ive quite literally never seen one of my teams win anything ever. I’ve never even seen them in a title round. Royals had back to back World Series trips and a ring. You’re going to tell me you wouldn’t take their last ten years vs ours? I don’t believe that

I think it was written by John Prine.  Grampa was a Carpenter.

[IndianaTwin]

Radio folks speculating Buxton is out because of the ball he fouled off his shin.

Typing in sentences is yelling? No, I wouldn't want to watch the last 8 years of them. After they won the WS I would have ditched them and not come back to baseball.

[TwinsCD]

Thank you, Mr. Witt.

Correct. 

I tell my son that if you don't know who wrote a great country song, the appropriate first guess is Kris Kristofferson. If it tilts toward folk, a good second guess would be John Prine.

It's crazy that you're cool with watching 92 loss teams for a decade. Yet complaining on a near daily basis about a pretty decent 2024 Twins team that is not on a 92 loss pace.

Nicely done with insurance runs...

Bruce Cockburn is my favorite in the folk genre

Agree. Although lately, seems Chris Stapleton writes everything.
