2 runs could turn the season around!

What is this NFL thing some of you fellas speak of?

[glunn]

Gardenhire should have brought in a lefty to face Loney.

National Frustration League.

For Minnesota fans, currently just another opportunity to wallow in frustration and despair.

Some days having picture in a picture so you can watch 2 games is a really bad thing, today was one of those days.

 

The finale to my own personal trilogy today (after these two games) will be the latest episode of Breaking Bad....somehow it seems fitting.

Sounds awful.

[snepp]

They scored runs today?

 

 

Moral victory is ours!

Hey Glunn, since Ashbury doesn't appear to be around. I thought I would put up a Rally Avatar.

 

Option A: Ziggy Barkdust

 

Option B: Evil Olivia

Holy **** -- those worked.

Gardenhire should have brought in a lefty to face Loney.

Danny G. says that Gardy wasn't roused from his nap and told to make the switch because the cybermetric machine has a busted hydraulic line. Equipment manager working on it, but probably too late now.

[snepp]

Oh Josmil, the things you do for me.

[glunn]

If the Twins win then Bark deserves the credit for his two rally avatars -- caught the Rays totally by surprise.

[Bark's Lounge]

YeeHaw!!!

[GCTF]

Oh Josmil, the things you do for me.

 

I'm just going to plan on expecting more of this going forward. Don't let me down.

[GCTF]

Did Gardy get Perkins up in time to get ready to start the inning?

 

analytical contribution.

Well... I guess sometimes one can catch lightning in a jar:confused: ... fingers crossed.

Good post. I like how you identified the genre.

[glunn]

Morneau just gave the Pirates a lead with a pinch hit single.

I'd forgotten what he looked like. Also, I wondered if they had to call him from home.

[glunn]

Nice play by Escobar at 3B, and smart move by Gardenhire to have Escobar come in to play defense for the 9th.

[snepp]

Twins win, Twins win!

How many more wins do you need to cash in on your pre-season bet?

[big dog]

Josmil Pinto...yeah, I like the sound of that. His bat hitting the ball, I mean. Then the roar of the crowd. That sound.

psst, Escobar played the whole game.

Siri says his name means 'mischievous badger' in Spanish.

[big dog]

Today's meaningless but fun fact: beginning Sept 1, Pinto has 7x as many RBI as Morneau.
