  1. A good story. Seems like the right currency for these sorts of transactions...
  2. Exsqueeze me! 4-1... Rosario w/ at triple high off the wall, and Nunez bunts him in and himself on.
  3. Nope. Just a bit lazy about the postin'... Sorry if i'm letting folk down. 2-1 entering the bottom half of the 8th inning. (CBUseful) Perkins might get to pitch?
  4. Still 2-1 after 5 for ye who follow the Circus Boy Updates.
  5. What's the saying? All's fair in love and baseball? Don't think i got it quite right, 'cause if so, there'd be fewer lines on the field...
  6. Sano gets a hit through the left side of the infield. 2 outs later, Nunez doubles of the shortstop's glove, with some tight baserunning by both he and Sano. Suzuki knocks 'em in for a 2-1 lead! Life is good.
  7. What'ya think he'll do with it? Whatever it is, we need it. 1-0 after 1.5 innings, courtesy of a double, sac bunt, sac fly.
  8. Who throws a fork ball these days? Or has it gone out of fashion? Or is it just called a splitter, as nickel curves are now sliders, which taste good when thrown out by white castle? That said, food on a stick sounds pretty good. My memories o' the Minnesota state fair strongly feature the boxes of fresh french fries too hot to handle... And i always wanted to see how far i could go with the all you can drink for a quarter milk stands, served in shot glasses too cold to handle... But my folks perhaps knew better than to let me indulge so just before a long drive home.
  9. Well done! Good ol' Robert Frost. Reminds me of this quantum mechanical parody thereof... Two slits diverged in a yellow plate, And sorry momentum spurred me through, I could not stop and choose my fate, But loped on with unwavoring gate And which I took, I never knew. Observers always heave a sigh Confronted by the evidence. Two slits diverged in a plate, and I - I took them both as easy as pi, And that has made the interference. Some day i'll figure quantum out... Probably when i finally do homework. I hear a main stumbling block is statistical mechanics, so i'm sure following baseball is good practice.
  10. Ya know, it just occurred unto me... A fork is nothing more than a W on a stick. Often they are even more literal, and it is a UU on a stick. I like epiphanies... I think i'll try to have them more often. If i ever open an institute of higher learning, that will be the driving principle. And i shall call it Fork University... Anyway, i's looking forward to a game, and all the excitement the word implies. I hope we win!
  11. Good to hear. Someday maybe the same can be said about the Twins. And do we blame Plouffe for that double play?
  12. Thanks! Alas, i don't think we passed anyone last night (though i could be mistaken) Anyway, your post brought to mind the followin' song, which i think i recently got somewhere in a pile of ancient sheet music... Might try to dig it out. (And now i'm tryin' to come up with a parody... "Smeagol, though you've lost the precious. Smeagol, you still catch the fishes..." is about as far as i got.)
  13. I'll take good care of her! She won't get a scratch!
  14. I must read this Charles Bukowski... Thank you for the cultural stimulus.
  15. "Sweet are the uses of adversity, Which, like the toad, ugly and venomous, Wears yet a precious jewel in his head;" I think he'll and on his feet.
  16. The fleet's beginning to break up... Dumping garbage... Ah yes. We have our moments. Not many of 'em but we do have 'em.
