    oh FFS. Adrianza, you're in there for one GD reason.
  2. USAFChief
    well, yes. The ball hit the back of Mauer's glove, the foot hit the bag. I mean it was close, but it was absolutely conclusive.
  3. USAFChief
    winner.
  4. USAFChief
    He was out.
  5. USAFChief
    Wow. what next.
  6. USAFChief
    Rodney for the 9th?
  7. USAFChief
    Addison "Vulture" Reed.

    It should also be noted, it's only your interpretation Eddie threw to the proper base. I contend the fact the ball ended up at the proper base does not constitute proof of same. In fact, it could be considered contra-evidence.
  9. USAFChief
    Oh we'll see you out, don't worry.

    http://canaryinacorporatecoalmine.com/uploads/3/4/5/8/34585230/5452846_orig.jpg?177 uffda. Now Reed. If it's not one thing, it's another.

    Careful what you ask for.
  12. USAFChief
    Take two strikes and ground into DP. Rinse, lather, repeat.
  13. USAFChief
    Nope. Couple years ago they put in a rule, you have to have at least 4 MLB players in your starting lineup.
  14. USAFChief
    Stop avoiding the question.

    I'm reminded of the story my great grandfather told me of growing up in Russia. He lived in a tiny village, that had only one cow. Sadly, the cow died, and the village had no milk. So they pooled their money, went to Minsk, and bought a cow. Well, the cow turned out to be fabulous. Rich milk every day, and plenty of it. They liked the cow so much, they decided to pool their remaining money, rent a bull, and see if they couldn't get another cow or two. The plan didn't work though. The cow wouldn't go near the bull, who eventually gave up. The villagers asked the travelling priest the next time he came through town, what he thought of the situation. The priest was known far and wide as a wise, patient man, who often could offer valuable advice. "Is your cow from Minsk?" asked the priest? "Yes, yes she is!" exclaimed the villagers. "You truly are wise! How did you know?" "My wife is from Minsk."

    I'd play Adrianza pretty much every day at SS. Escobar just gives up too much.
  17. USAFChief
    I ninja'd you by a least 2 minutes.

    Did he have 19 hits in his Twins career? edit: I just checked: 36 hits. However, he's hit 1 more HR tonight against the Twins than he hit FOR the Twins in his Twins career.
  19. USAFChief
    And Dick.

    So I think I told you all a couple days ago that my good buddy, who I'd meet at my regular neighborhood bar for a beer most afternoons after work, passed away. Sad. Anywho, I took his wife to the Tucson Daily Star offices today, our local newspaper. She needed a ride there to place my buddy's obit in the paper. She's a nice enough lady, but monumentally, ah...frugal. To say the least. We got there, and ambled up to the booth. I helped her along, as she's getting up there in age. She asked the young lady behind the window how much they charge for an obituary. "It's a dollar a word, ma'am," she replied. Well, the new widow nearly fainted. "A dollar a word??" She fumed. "That's robbery! Very well, make it "Sal died." The young lady was pretty amused, I could tell, but she managed to keep the smile off her face, if not the twinkle from her eye. "Well, I'm sorry, but there's also a five word minimum," she told us. My friend Sal's wife nearly fainted. "But, but that will be FIVE dollars!" "Yes ma'am, I'm afraid so." Sal's wife was about to turn and walk away, but I guess she felt some sense of obligation to her late husband. "Fine," she said, "Make it 'Sal died, Volvo for sale.'"

    We said it last year. More/better use of the 4 seam for Gibson made him a different pitcher.
  22. USAFChief
    yes.
  23. USAFChief
    I feel good about tonight's game. It's always darkest just before the dawn. And man...it's really dark out there. pitch-black.

    Just wanted to say -- no joke -- the quality of game thread intros so far this season is off the charts. Amid all the, uh, less than hoped for quality of play, the game thread vols have been on their collective games! We very much appreciate it. Thanks!!!
