  1. Hmm, I didn't see any rain on the weather radar in Chicago. Guess that has changed.
  2. If the game were still close I'd have wanted Duffey out there again.
  3. Nah. It took a perfect throw to get him. Worth a try.
  4. Rocco pulling the right strings tonight.
  5. Iconic and beautiful? To some people, yes. It's also a dump. And, as Morneau pointed out, the ivy covers a brick wall. Not a good place to play outfield.
  6. Well, it was over Waveland for part of its trajectory.
  7. Woulda been coulda been shoulda been.
  8. Now that was a nice inning by Duffey. Let's see him do it again.
  9. Good thing for Wade on that catch that Steve Bartman was not in attendance.
  10. OK, so that's a manufactured run. Now I'd like to see a 450-footer over Waveland Ave.
  11. Rocco looks good on the pinch runner move.
  12. Sounds a lot like having internet friends with whom to have virtual conversations about baseball games.
  13. If the Twins scored the same number of runs in the last week on only singles and doubles there would be concerns expressed that we weren't hitting enough home runs.
  14. Way to work out of it, Big Mike!
  15. My thoughts as well. I think there are definite short-term health issues, but I hope there are no longer-term problems
  16. I would be more likely to spend money at Pizza Ranch if they had different commercials. I picture 30 seconds with their logo on the screen with a spokesperson saying something like this: "We are Pizza Ranch. We hope you patronize our restaurants because we buy advertising on Twins games." That would be better than seeing the same bad spots they've been showing for the past few years.
  17. Buxton is standing on 3 on that ball.
  18. It's pretty apparent that the lighting for night games is not as good at Wrigley as it is everywhere else.
  19. I'll be the first to comment. Back in the 1980's Bill James discussed a metric to find out who was the best baseball player during a certain time frame. He took all the weighted MVP votes players received and added them up. I think one of the calculations with this method gave the result that Stan Musial was the best player in the National League during the 1950's. I don't remember the numbers and I'm not going to do it again, but using this method with the weighted AL Manager of the Year votes gives the result that Gardy was the best manager in the AL during the nine seasons from 2002 through 2010.
  20. This is an AP article lifted from the StarTribune web site. https://m.startribune.com/detroit-tigers-manager-gardenhire-announces-retirement/572465591/
