    Well, Chief did mention tossing a few bowling balls. Sort of makes me wonder who at?
  2. Blake
    Whew!

    Well, so much for the correlation between my writing game threads and Twins winning. Ah well, all good things must come to an end. And I guess my Twins and me wining streak is dead.* *No idea why there aren't more red shirts in these clips. But, life goes on and we have another fabulous game today. Should be a good one! Maybe the Twins will find the two out rbi hero they were so lacking last night.* *Yes, I'd prefer a no-out RBI but, sometimes one cannot really chose the rbi moment. Finally, I'd like to say: I need to get going as I'm running late getting this thread up.* *This is known as filler, as I've nothing to really add at this point. And, with that, I leave you with these random thoughts: Some observations from last night: 1. I thought the Twins had finally turned the corner when it came to two out rbi's. I thought wrong.2. Kyle Gibson seems to have turned into the real deal. It's a shame he doesn't have more wins that he does.3. What's up with Danny Duffy?4. Last night was a great pitching matchup that, unfortunately just did not go the Twins way.5. Walking in the tying run. Uggh. Great pitching last night, though. Play Ball! Lineups: Twins Pitching for the Twins: Fernando Romero ® 1. Brian Dozier ® 2B 2. Eddie Rosario (L) LF 3. Miguel Sano ® DH 4. Logan Morrison (L) 1B 5. Eduardo Escobar (S) 3B 6. Max Kepler (L) RF 7. Ryan LaMarre ® CF 8. Ehire Adrianza (S) SS 9. Bobby Wilson ® C Royals Pitching for the Royals: Brad Keller ® 1. Jon Jay (L) DH 2. Alcides Escobar ® SS 3. Mike Moustakas (L) 3B 4. Salvador Perez ® C 5. Jorge Soler ® RF 6. Alex Gordon (L) LF 7. Hunter Dozier ® 1B 8. Ryan Goins (L) 2B 9. Abraham Almonte (S) CF I think we'll see another well-pitched game. Hopefully, things break the right way for the Twins!

    Fair enough.

    Three names for you; Gomez, Span and Hicks. All of them traded, all of them still playing. And the players the Twins got in return?

    Gibson has been darn good this year. I don't think his ERA and won loss record are an accurate reflection of the job he's done.

    Well, Eddie took to big a turn at 1st, got picked off and Duffy was hollering at Eddie, face contorted, etc. However, earlier in the game, Eddie was on third and, with third base playing well off the bag, Eddie was wandering and jumping around, which Duffy also took exception to. Which, honestly, I don't get Duffy taking exception, because if you're going to give the guy on third that much of a lead, what do you expect?
  9. Blake
    Yeah, Duffy seems to be kind of a jerk.

    LOL!

    Only because I stand on the shoulders of giants.. (I read somewhere Newton said that to tweak a rival, who was of diminutive stature. Yeah, not a compliment )

    Thread fodder! It's gold, I tell you, gold!

    Novas are all fun and games until your solar system is destroyed..

    You don't worry that she's oversharing just a bit?
  16. Blake
    Thank you.
  17. Blake
    Well, considering who started the thread....
  18. Blake
    I was just checking to make sure TD was on.

    Hola!

    I hit the way-back machine in order to find some inspiration for the game thread today. However, I don't think it worked quite as it should have: * *Frostbite Falls, MN? Boris and Natasha? Moose and Squirrel? Any of this ring a bell? Bueller? Sigh. Youth. Somehow, I wound up in a weird place with flying squirrels and mooses that pull rabbits out of hats: * *Yes, we are substituting video for content. Why do you ask? I finally made it back to the current game thread and decided to look at the last game thread I wrote. In reading that previous thread, I realize now the Twins are 3-0 when I write game threads. (write, video, it's all content, right?) I'm hoping my streaks remains alive as the Twins try to make it two in a row in KC. (making me 4-0 if anyone is counting. Not that I'm counting, mind you. Just trying to maintain accurate records) Some random thoughts: Some observations from last night: 1. Lynn wasn't great, but, managed to survive 6 innings and his ERA is now below 6, which is quite the drop, considering where it was a few starts ago. 2. Mr. Dozier had a two out RBI. I didn't know that was allowed. In fact, I'm not sure the Twins knew it was allowed. 3. Seriously, there's both an Escobar and a Dozier on both teams? 4. In fact, the Twins picked up RBI's with two outs twice. 5. Nice to see Garver pick up an RBI at a critical juncture. Play ball! Lineups: Twins Pitching for the Twins: Kyle Gibson ® 1.

    Twice in one game... Is that legal?
