Sorry i missed a couple of outs. 5-1 what a way to make a living just doesn't work.

18!

Is gallows humor appropriate here? Counting down makes me think of this...

20! Ans 19! Sano! Took a while... but was worth it,

Bits of joy, eh? Not Bytes?

4-1. Some contrpuntal hitting from Madrigal... Ah well.

Well, a third of the way back from the deficit. Gotta hold 'em. (well, obvious, i suppose.)

Arraez! (i just like saying... er, typing that.)

Refsnyder!! And an RBI!

Garver!!

21! A 1-2-3 inning. (Not be confused with 123rd inning. Which would be a long game.

22!

Thanks!

23! (i got distracted...)

24!

25!

4.9? We got an out!

Ouch. Hope Garver is okay...

I give up... How many?

Bases loaded, no outs? Right where we want 'em.... (it works against us...)

Pasta diving Donaldson...

Oh yeah. Play Ball!

Typically i woulda gone after the comebacker that send charlie flying, but there are a lot of options...

Am i to be called upon for optimism during this game? I'll see what i can do.

Yeah, grief is supposed to be good... So i am told. Today, i felt it appropriate to honor Charles Schultz. I am sure he would approve Minnesota's baseball team and its stick-to-it-ive-ness in the face of welming odds (no just welming, we only wish they were over) I am too lazy to track down an iconic baseball image, or rather taking a small look, that the series ran almost half a centrmury, i am awed and humbled by the creativity inherent in such a run. Anyway, mad props go to.who ever can track down the image what best represents the Twins season so far. Even as kids we appreicated the strip, as i have vague memories of friends competing to see who could yell the name of the comic strip the loudest. White Sox: 0. Dallas Keuchel ( L) P 1.
