  1. Intentional unintentional walk coming.
  2. Good call by Molitor having Hicks running.
  3. Just as LEN III predicted in this morning's Strib. It will be interesting to see the other side of the trade, but with KC's position this type of move makes sense. And I agree that this should have no bearing on any roster changes the Twins may or may not make during the upcoming week.
  4. Guess old guys need more rest, but the timing of that is curious. Maybe the day off was planned out a while back and last night's performance was just a coincidence.
  5. According to today's Strib Nelson baited Molitor to come out onto the field by saying he couldn't hear what Molitor was saying and then immediately ejected him when he left the dugout. And beyond that Molitor was not arguing the call, but was just saying that Nelson should have gotten help on the call. Based on that Molitor should not have been ejected.
  6. That call was B as in B and S as in S
  7. That reminds me of the famous Winston Churchill story. He told a woman she was ugly. She said, "You're drunk!" And he said, "Yes. but tomorrow I shall be sober."
  8. We've had a 2-run homer and a 3-run homer...
  9. Pitching coach should tell tubby to throw a high fastball to Dozier.
  10. It's time to make tubby run after a bunt!
  11. As Yogi might say, a great mind thinks alike!
  12. Nope. All that does is make it more obvious.
  13. Not any more. I've become an old curmudgeon completely out of touch with pop culture.
  14. Guess it's OK then. BTW, the harmonica on that song was played by Delbert McClinton.
  15. In 1975 Andy Messersmith was the first free agent in baseball history. He signed a contract with the Braves, who were owned at the time by Ted Turner, who also owned WTBS TV, which was one of the first TV stations to be widely carried on cable. So at the beginning of the 1976 season Messersmith was issued uniform number 17, which was further adorned by his new nickname "Channel". An interesting coincidence is that WTBS happened to be channel 17. (Imagine that!) Well, that only lasted a very short time because MLB reminded Mr. Turner that advertising on MLB uniforms was prohibited.
  16. The '60's throwback unis have no names because that's the way it was 50 years ago. And beyond that, most teams do not put names on the backs of home unis, although I think the Twins do on their newest ones.
  17. Dozier should put down a bunt like Hicks'.
  18. You're right. I apologize for being so mean-spirited.
  19. Concur, except if the batter is helpless. Like a pitcher or Suzuki.
