Got myself a bowl of ice cream as a reward for a hard week at work. Bad Ice Cream is still pretty dang good but... Why did my wife have to buy bad ice cream?

I would Players are like a razor... You should use them when they are sharp.

Average bunt... His speed made it work. Bauer could have had him but he threw it inside the bag and Santana couldn't reach across Buxton to catch it.

That's good news. All the West Virginia locals will finally get a chance to take a shower and clean up a little.

From your fingers to the baseball god's eyes.

Molitor: Hey Turley... If it wasn't for the 2 home runs 6 hits and the additional 8.3 innings needed. You would have had a perfect game.

The bullpen will be necessary tonight. Good News though,,, Sano isn't in the ineup and the last time Sano wasn't in the lineup... we scored 20 runs.

This is how I do it Dear Mejia, Please don't walk guys hitting .174 Sincerely, Riverbrian

I love it up there. The Islands are beautiful. One of the great Minnesota Spots... Right after Target Field.

It does but your hand will get wet when you grab it.

Wisconsin Dells is trying to pull the Minnesotans in. Explore Minnesota is trying to pull Iowans in.

Ok… it's Cleveland again, but this time the Twins are on the road where they rule. It’s hard to describe how I’m feeling at this point of this season. Most seasons are a roller coaster but this one hasn’t been roller coaster-ish at all… More like a drive across the plains. As far as wins and losses it’s been consistent 500ish play in all 3 months. No roller coaster at all… It’s been like driving across Kansas. Nobody wants to drive across Kansas. Here are some things to think about: 1. Cleveland – The modern golf ball was invented in Cleveland. In 1898 some guy named Coburn Haskell found some rubber thread at the BF Goodrich plant and wound it into a ball and started bouncing it around when another guy named Bertram Work saw him bouncing it and said that he should put a cover on it and that was how the game of golf changed forever. Years later Cleveland impacted golf again by producing Tim Conway and Dorf. 2. Our Twins – After the 9-0 loss the Twins run differential is now at -49. They are still two games above .500 and yesterday’s shut out was also the first time that the team has been shut out all year. Those two things don’t suggest a -49 run differential until you factor in that Chris Gimenez has now pitched 6 times this year. 3. The Indians – They have gotten on that roll that everybody in the world has said they were capable of being on. If they win the last 92 games of the year like everybody in the world said they were capable of doing. They will finish the year with 130 wins and that means the Twins will probably fall out of the race around mid-September. 4. Today’s Joe M Conversation McCarthy: What’s wrong, Joe? You look like you’ve seen a ghost. Mauer: He’s looking right at you, Joe… we all see a ghost right now. Montana: Hold on, Joe… Joe is right… something is wrong with Joe. McCarthy: What’s wrong, Joe? Maddon: I don’t know how this happened. I just spoke with my agent… my drug test results have come back… what am I gonna say to the press? Mauer: What? Montana: That is not possible… there has to be a mistake. McCarthy: I knew it… that explains everything. I’ve seen those lineups you put together. Maddon: I’m clean… I’ve always been clean... and still the test came back negative. Mauer: You passed… you’re fine. Maddon: Negative… it came back negative! Montana: Negative is good… you passed… you’re fine. Maddon: That makes no sense… are you sure? Montana: I’m positive. 5. 3 Story House – I grew up in a 3 story house… I was once on the 2nd floor while my Mom was on the 3rd floor and my Dad was on the 1st floor. They both asked me where I was at the exact same time and I decided not to answer them. I knew that answering with upstairs or downstairs had immediate clarity issues. ____________________ Lineups: TWINS Brian Dozier 2B Joe Mauer 1B Kennys Vargas DH Max Kepler RF Eduardo Escobar 3B Eddie Rosario LF Jorge Polanco SS Jason Castro C Byron Buxton CF Adalberto Mejia P CLEVELAND Jason Kipnis 2B Erik Gonzalez 3B Francisco Lindor SS Edwin Encarnacion DH Carlos Santana 1B Austin Jackson CF Lonnie Chisenhall RF Roberto Perez C Daniel Robertson LF Trevor Bauer P Weather: Hmmm ... well ... it could rain. 50% chance by 7pm CT, but, if not, it'll be 73 deg, cloudy, with winds around 12mph from the WSW.

It was a good night. We got the win and... and... The New P. Cetera stat was created.

I do I'm gonna take a shower... and then retire for the night Good night all.

Somebody has to be Chief

Kinda?

Chargois has hit over 100mph in the Minors. In the Majors... I think the only guy who did it was Niekro.

You gotta try something. My only worry was that Jurassic Park Outlet Injury he had.

I wonder what his P.Cetera is?
