What if he pitches to them again this inning?

My bad. I think i just read "who'd i miss" Glad to know i'm not missed.

Did we just get greedy? I like being greedy...

Me? Meh, i like taking what no one else wants...

Garver on 3rd. Let's get him in!

Ever hear the unlisted track on Metaphysical Graffiti? It references a maggot farm next to a medical plant. But it's got so much more to it than the world's biggest maggots...

Y'all are welcome. Rosario!!!! Sorry... Got distracted.

What is a joke?

One time i was at this park and i heard a story about two hikers that rounded a corner in the trail and came across a bear. One of them quietly sets his backpack down, removes his boots, gets out his running shoes and puts them on. The other looks at him like he's stupid and points out that bears can go upwards of 40 mph over short distances and there's no way he'll out run it if thinks come to that. The other fellow acknowledges the truth of what the fellow says, but points out in this situation, he just needs to not be the slowest person the bear is chasing. I'm not sure if that story has bearing on this game, but it seemed somehow appropriate, what with the wild card race bearing down on us, to be reminded that complex situations may have easier solutions than are apparent at first glance. There is more than one way to skin a... um. Banana. I mean peal. No one will be grossed out by pealing a banana? Alright, now your turn. Get your best curve over in this here game thread! Berrios and Garver are the battery here to power an exciting lookin' game. And it is never good to short change the number 9 hitter... White Sox Derek Holland (L) 1. Leury Garcia (S) LF 2.

I think he's a starting pitcher... But he did set a new record for oldest Twin to hurl a complete game.

"Infante relieved Bummer." I wonder where this is going...

Twins have also won more games than they have lost so far this season. That's something.

That's how come i couldn't figure it out. I was thinking Dutch windmills...

Only in the same game... Or in fewer than 9 games, i suppose.

I have expanded your abbreviation on your behalf, but i suppose it is funny to leave out 11 letters while chastizing someone for leaving 1 out... Nevermind. How come y'all are smarter than me?

What is worse than finding a wormhole in your apple? I think i encountered that riddle in elementary school.

My dictionary works that way too. Funny that.

Vargas disagrees. Hopefully he does so more frequently than 1 out of 7 from here on in... (If he is little Poppi, who is Goldilox?)

Wherever you go... There you are!

It is fall already? My how time flies!

Enough dithering? You are a better person than me. I can never decide if it is enough or not. Kudos for actually traveling to the other town and ballpark to write the intro. Now that is dedication! Oh, and i hope we win!

That's okay. Few do.

And speaking of character... Maybe i should do some laundry.

I confess, i slept through more of the game than i care to admit. So i'll admit that i thought a charger would keep a hand held device charged, but it didn't... I gotta agree that the team probably learned more from a 9-10 loss than it would from most other scores. Not that i know what, but yeah, this team just keeps with the character building! Our character will be something to contend with soon. At least i hope so.

Escobar with a runner aboard ties the game. Not bad.
