  1. I used to keep book when I went to a game on my own back in my single days during the late '80s. I never did it for the purpose of compiling stats or anything; it was more just an OCD thing to do and it really kept my focus on the game. My routine was to purchase an orphan single ticket from a scalp---um, independent broker---and find a vacant seat near the field by the second inning or so. After that a visit from a beer vendor and a hot dog vendor and I was set.
  2. That bunt would have been a good play only if it worked.
  3. Daughter: Is Suzuki fast enough to try to bunt for a hit? Me: Obviously not.
  4. If it was newly-baked in a restaurant I could handle the burn. Leftover reheated, not so much.
  5. Twins players to Dean: Shake it off, rook, and don't worry. We got your back.
  6. Who posted this? Obvious jinx. Sheesh!
  7. Gotta get through the bottom of this inning in case it starts raining.
  8. Twins players to Berrios: Shake it off, rook, and don't worry. We got your back.
  9. Dick Bremer: That was about five-hundred-seven-twenty pounds
  10. That looks like a line drive in the box score.
  11. This Tigers team is very much capable of blowing an 8-0 lead. Even to this Twins team.
  12. This is so ridiculous. It's obvious you don't know what you're talking about. Phil Hughes lives in Plymouth, not Edina.
  13. So do other team websites have game threads that continue even though the game itself is postponed? Or is it just us? Or is it just me?
  14. http://www.beyondtheboxscore.com/2009/3/17/795946/optimizing-your-lineup-by This article discusses optimal batting order. The takeaway is this: how the lineup spots rank in the importance of avoiding outs: #1, #4, #2, #5, #3, #6, #7, #8, #9
  15. Replace Molitor? Or Ryan or Pohlad? OK, but only if the replacement(s) are very likely to be an improvement over the status quo. A corollary to that is the replacement(s) would be someone we believe in enough to keep in place through rough patches. High turnover is not good, especially at GM.
  16. So that's at least 5 runs this game that they've scored after the inning should have ended. Ball game.
  17. Which friend did you stay with for the following month?
  18. Actually, we don't yell at each other on the game threads. That's what the "Fire (insert name of coach, manager or front office person)" threads are for.
