    Jones looks like he might hurt himself delivering the baseball.
  2. USAFChief
    But Rose salutes Castro's arm.
  3. USAFChief
    Paul not impressed either.
  4. USAFChief
    That's such BS. He pulls his back foot toward the plate to square, and catches on the toe. That should not be a HBP.
  5. USAFChief
    fun with numbers courtesy of the Sox broadcast: the last 7 times Pressly has pitched the Twins have lost
  6. USAFChief
    Nice work.
  7. USAFChief
    He can't be unique in that quality, I'm guessing.
  8. USAFChief
    Same here. Nice to have a bit of relief from the heat.

    Mrs Chief has been on a bit of a ... I don't know, self-exploration and self improvement kick lately. Classes at the local community college, gym membership, new wave this, seminar that. I about came unglued when she walked in from her P31 class a couple minutes ago and informed me she had spent $4400 on a "How likely is reincarnation" two day class this weekend. "Honey," I said, "I don't want you to not try to improve yourself, but forty four hundred bucks??" "Oh for heaven sakes, relax" she told me. "You only live once!"

    Circle does NOT get the square!

    Not to toot my own horn, but the potential consequences of the front office's refusal to add a 4th OFer this winter were the subject of approximately 13000 of my 19000 some odd posts.
  12. USAFChief
    Thought Doze' got that one.
  13. USAFChief
    no, no it wasn't. Several of us predicted it. Let Odorizzi lose the lead, THEN go the pen anyway. Come hell or high water.

    Who's ripping Molly for his early hook??
  15. USAFChief
    Brave indeed, but no lives saved. Grossman missed the grenade by several feet.
  16. USAFChief
    I don't know who I blame more...Molitor or Grossman.
  17. USAFChief
    Paul, too, likes to live dangerously.

    SOOOOOO, this afternoon, I once again stopped for a beer at my favorite neighborhood beer joint. I had to...there are a bunch of us regulars, and today was one regular's birthday. I won't tell you Morty's age, but it's a large number. Anywho, the rest of us had planned a little surprise party, and as part of the festivities, we had arranged for a young lady to jump out of a huge birthday cake. Well, it went just as planned...she jumps out of the cake, saunters up to Morty, and says to him in a sultry voice, "Happy birthday, Morty! I'm here to give you super sex!" Morty looks at her...long pause...and finally says "I'll take the soup."

    Five pitch walk, not particularly competitive pitches. I would not let Odorizzi lose the lead here.
  20. USAFChief
    Romero has big league stuff, to be sure. Fun to watch.
  21. USAFChief
    Yeah, but not being as good as the other team isn't embarrassing. Errors will happen to everyone...there shouldn't be a ton of them, but humans make mistakes. Thus was on a whole different level. This was something you should never see at this level. Ever. This was one team toying with the other, and knowing they could. This was the varsity playing the junior high team in a scrimmage. This was a good pony league team vs a bad one.
  22. USAFChief
    And we played a 16 inning game. It evens out. More innings from the starters isn't realistic, not is it the primary problem.
  23. USAFChief
    That 10th inning was an embarrassment to the entire organization. Decent legion ball teams know how to defend 1st and third. Jr high teams. Kendrys Morales wandered off first base, and the Twins were too frightened, or confused to throw the ball. For Pete sake. That is not major league baseball.
  24. USAFChief
    We make up for it by being easy to swindle in trades. "Hicks for Murphy?? And we don't have to throw in a prospect??? Quick, where do we sign??"
  25. USAFChief
    Every single person in the Twins organization should be embarrassed by the 10th inning tonight. That was not a major league team. That was what a good American Legion team does to a poor American Legion team. Run at will, laugh as the runner on first ambles toward second, daring the catcher to try to throw him out, knowing the other team won't be able to execute two successful infield throws in a row so the runner from third will score if they try to throw you out, a free base if they don't. And they won't throw, because THEY know they can't trust themselves to throw home to second to home without a bad throw. Scoring on a ball hit DIRECTLY at the SS who was playing IN in hopes of EXACTLY THAT THING HAPPENING. Jogging in to score on consecutive pitches to the backstop. That wasn't major league baseball.
