  1. By short circuit, mean goad into blinding glory. Much as happens when you stick a fork in a toaster. Not that i have done it. Or advocate it. I might advocado it though... In that the instant flash is so much brighter than say, the dull glow of a pickle.
  2. Today's thread intro is brought to you by Brazil. To short circuit Chief's humor, yes there are a brazilian brazilians there. But i actually mean the movie, not the country. I bring it up as it succinctly illustrates contrasts between reality and hopes, dreams, expectations. As an example, there is a scene where dinner is ordered at restaurant by number from a menu with lavish pictures only be delivered as 2 scoops of coloured mush on a plate. The Twins are only a few key corners to turn before making a run. Which corner do you expect they'll turn first? Bon appetite! Angels Nick Tropeano (R ) 1. Ian Kinsler (R ) 2B 2. Mike Trout (R ) CF 3. Justin Upton ( R) LF 4. Albert Pujols ( R) DH 5. Luis Valbuena (L) 3B 6. Zack Cozart (R ) SS 7. Jose Miguel Fernandez (L) 1B 8. Martin Maldonado ( R) C 9.

Mitch Garver ( R) C 8. Jake Cave (L) CF 9. Ehire Adrianza (S) SS Gametime Forecast: 72°F • Mostly Cloudy • 1% PoP
  3. Thank ye kindly! I try not to be greedy, though...
  4. I guess i just introduced an evening game thread...
  5. So i should have cautioned that use of an umbrella may increase your chances to be struck by lightning?
  6. In case of game, break glass. 1. The Surgeon General has noticed that caring too much about a baseball team can be hazardous to your equanimity. Proceed at your own risk. 2. Familiarize yourself with all safety proceedures including but not limited to emergency exits, safety restraints, and relevent contact information. 3. Turn all signed permission slips and insurance waivers. Does your family know you are watching a baseball game? Feel free to invite them along. 4. Please wash hands after using the fasilities. Share snacks and beverages responsibly. 5. And in the words of a certain Disney caterpiller, "Keep your temper." Angels Tyler Skaggs (L) 1. Ian Kinsler ( R) 2B 2. Mike Trout ( R) CF 3.

  7. The out look wasn't bright for the mudville 9 that day... The score stood 4-2 with but one inning left to play... a little poetic dejavu, this is...
  8. Now the trick to walking off a game is not to get out. The rest is up to you, Twins.
  9. You would have gotten away with it, if it hadn't been for those meddling kids!
  10. There's more work to be done. They still got a lead, even if it coulda been worse.
  11. Cool! Now the big question: Peanuts? Or Crackerjack?
  12. I typed it from memory, so i could be wrong... But i'll go with the not caring part of it.
  13. Figured i'd get back to basics today... 1. "Take me out to the ball game, take me out to the park." Location, location, location. First order of business is a chance to appreciate the action. Technology expands that horizon, but does not negate the need. You got that solved? 2. "Buy me some peanuts and crackerjack" It's not as quick a game as it used to be. Are your appetites addressed? Whatcha got on the menu? 3. "I don't care if i ever go back." I see we are all dedicated. It may not be so marked as swaring off the rest of the world, but it is important to care, at least a little. 4. "So lets root root root for the home team, if they don't win it's a shame!" Go Twins! 5. "For it's one, two, three strikes you're out at the old ball game!" Yes, there are rules. Play ball! Angels Garrett Richards ( R) 1. Ian Kinsler ( R) 2B 2. Mike Trout ( R) CF 3. Justin Upton ( R) LF 4. Albert Pujols ( R) DH 5. Luis Valbuena (L) 3B 6. Zack Cozart ( R) SS 7. Jose Miguel Fernandez (L) 1B 8. Martin Maldonado ( R) C 9. Chris Young ( R) RF Twins Lance Lynn ( R) 1.

Ryan LaMarre ( R) CF Gametime Forecast: 75°F • Partly Cloudy • 2% PoP
  14. Sano struck out swinging? How could this be? Hopefully Grossman can improve upon that...
  15. 3 Runs, 3 innings. We can do this... We gotta aim higher than shoes for this one, me thinks. Anyone got a nice wig collection handy?
  16. Take all the umbrage your heart desires! There is enough for everybody!
