  1. Here's what I really liked about that play. I like how Cave, after getting tagged way before scoring, reaches up and touches the catcher's glove, with the ball in it, also before he scores, just to be absolutely sure there can be no doubt in the umpire's mind about safe/out, and any replay challenge will provide indisputable proof of outcome.
  2. Let's see... leadoff single. runner picked off first after he falls down like he got shot Mauer runs runner 80 ft towards second base, never closes the gap by a foot despite the runner juking back towards first every 10 ft Forsythe dives towards the mound Polanco is taking a nap a SS Mauer throws ball to nobody Next hitter sac bunts back to the mound May falls on his @$$ May throws ball to the first base coach from his @$$ Mauer somehow corrals bad throw Chicago baserunners follow "run till they tag you out" T-ball baserunning strategy Twins somehow make 5 or 6 infield throws without throwing ball away both Chicago runners end up on third. One is out. May rescues the inning Questions?
  3. Someone asked me recently what Mrs Chief does for a living. "Well," I said, "it's difficult to say...She sells sea shells by the sea shore."
  4. lol. Well played, Mauer. Also, somebody remind Polanco there's a baseball game in progress. Also, quick...what was the scoring on the sac bunt? I got 1-3-2-5-2.
  5. Neither team is even paying any attention to this game any more.
  6. Yes, but also Provus. They average out to...average.
  7. Don't they have radio stations out there in Sout' Dahkohtah?
  8. To be fair, my attention is sort of wandering too.
  9. More like...coasted to a stop from a crawl, if you ask me.
  10. Speaking of Mrs Chief, she's been gone for about a week now. The police told me I should prepare for the worst...so I went to the Goodwill Store and got all her clothes back.
  11. Sheesh...people are so sensitive these days. I stopped by the mall on the way home from work today to look for some warm clothes to wear when Mrs Chief and I travel home to MN for Christmas later this year. I went in to this new, hot, all-the-rage Middle Eastern clothing store, and promptly got asked to leave. All I did was ask if they had any bomber jackets.
  12. ... ... yes. //given that it was Grossman running, and he was out by approximately 85 ft, I'm guessing he was trying to get in a rundown. It's nice to see at least one other major league team can't defend a play that good high school teams defend with ease.
  13. heh...true dat. I'm just too stupid to know how to post a screenshot from FSN. They had the box up as the pitch was delivered live. If you believe in the box, it was a strike.
  14. https://www.mlb.com/gameday/twins-vs-white-sox/2018/08/21/531296#game_state=live,game_tab=,game=531296 Not if you’re a fan of the electronic strike zone. Strike three.
  15. 10th in the American League in ERA. 2 spots better than 2017. 5 spots better than 2016. The same as 2015.
  16. I have stated repeatedly that I think it was a mistake for the Twins to sell off the 2018 season.
  17. Did you, or the Twins front office, know during the last week of July what Cleveland's record would be over the next three weeks? Do you know, today, what Cleveland's record will be through the end of the season?
