    Ick. Ish. Ugh.

    The Twins hitters are going to be kicking themselves tomorrow about this game.

    There are different levels of cannibalism? And you know how to make value judgements on them?
  4. ashbury
    That is not an easy question and will require a long answer.

    In this world, we each travel our own Oregon Trail, and each have our own wagon.

    If it's one of those ballgames where we're behind 5-1 in the third inning can I call dibs on Dysentery?
  7. ashbury
    Certainly could have been. Good job Press.

    FTFY someone
  9. ashbury
    I will freely admit I could not. And you would rightly bench me.

    No need to trade either Dozier or Polanco this coming off-season, to free up that 2B logjam, right?

    Wasted at-bat by Rosario. I'm going out on a limb and say that he didn't like receiving the bunt sign.

    I think we decided the first week of the season that they were jinxing us. We might need to revisit that.

    Pipp's probably your better bet for double-digit HRs in the occasional season, if Gordon doesn't pan out.
  15. ashbury
    Not Vielma?

    The radio team (Gladden?) put the jinx on at the end of the third inning by mentioning it. Sheesh. N00bs. Everyone here knows better, right?
  17. ashbury
    Is there a pitch that Rosario won't take a swing at?

    I'd love to, but it's my parakeet's bowling night. Also, I have to sort the gravel in my driveway. And I just remembered, I'm scheduled to give nuisance lessons at our local convenience store. I may think of other reasons, as well.

    My apologies for the threadjack.

    Also if his nylon stockings get scratched.

    Good luck with that. I was at Fenway last night (not particularly rooting for either team, just enjoying the game), and a shaky starter combined with the bullpen to cough up a lead in the sixth. Leather-lunged guy behind me was howling about Dumb-browski until it was time to leave to catch our train.

    Brian Dozier is having an all-star caliber season, although it took him a while to get rolling so got no consideration in July. Max Kepler is having a productive rookie season. Joe Mauer is hitting well enough to be a major league starter at an offensively challenging position. Ervin Santana has quietly put together a very professional season. Brandon Kintzler has been a pleasant surprise in the bullpen and has even shouldered the role of closer when desperation demanded it. I think that about covers it. Somebody please split these into separate articles and flesh them out. Oops, maybe some of these have already been written; I guess that what makes it a blue moon.

    I hope the coaches don't ream him too hard about it. He knows he goofed. The goof looks for all the world like wanting so much to win; you don't want to wring that out of him. I'd pat him on the butt, say something benign like "nobody could have caught that one, you didn't lose the game," and then if he does something dumb like that again, talk more pointedly at that time.

    I think everyone in the ballpark knew that if the Twins surrendered that lead, they would go on to lose. As soon as that ball was struck, you knew if it dropped then the baserunner would score to tie it. The catch had to be made. It was an impossible catch for someone with Kepler's speed.Everything after that decision to go for it... was just... horrible to watch, but in all practicality really only accelerated the inevitable outcome.
