    According to the schedule it is, at 6:05pm CT. Maybe we should make this the game thread.

    Moderator note: Neither do I. For those that want to say 'cheaters,' stop. Perhaps you disagree on ethical grounds how it works, so argue that from your own personal stance; but except for the Boston case, in which they were cited punitively, the rules were followed, so please stop phrasing it as 'cheating' as it is inflammatory and disrespectful.

    When I know I'm going out for breakfast, I always 'crave' pancakes. But when I get to where I'm going, I always order something eggy instead. Not sure why that is. Maybe despite the cravings, I just like eggs better? Hmmm ... But the best kind of pancakes are aebelskiver. Yes, I've talked about these delicious little Danish pancakes before. They are the best!
  4. Squirrel
    And now it's today!
  5. Squirrel
    Get your maple syrup ready ... tomorrow is national pancake day!

    Honestly, I love his story ... I don't care what team he's on ... I will always cheer on someone like that!
  7. Squirrel
    And the Twins are on the board ... up 1-0 in the top of the 6th. On 2 outs ... Vargas walked , Paulsen doubled scoring Vargas from 1st.
  8. Squirrel
    Oh ... and I'll add ... Santiago very likely could have given up a 3-run HR in the 2nd, but thank the wind for pushing it foul.
  9. Squirrel
    He got into a bit of trouble in the 2nd, but worked out of it without score. That's nice to see. I'd rather there never be 'trouble,' but unless you are an ace of an ace, you are going to give up hits and walks, so it's nice when pitchers can work out of it with minimal damage. And in this case, no score.
  10. Squirrel
    0-0 after 1. Only hit in the 1st was by Rosario; Nats went down in order. Top of the 2nd, down in order; bottom 2nd coming up.

    Okay, threaders ... guess the only ones listening today will be those with the MLB package as I don't think it's on the radio locally ... not that I saw, did I get that wrong? Anyway, the team makes the 2.5-3 hr drive to West Palm Beach on Florida's other coast (I like the west coast side better) to play the Nats. I just looked up their ST facilities ... it looks pretty nice. One day (i.e. in my retirement) I'll make the trek to all the other ST complexes to compare and rate. For now, I'll just say we have the best. (Oh, okay, I have been to Jet Blue ... the parking situation there is awful, so it dampens any positive position I might have on the place.) Anyway ... I'm going to get this up, then head off to work, where I'll be working alone, so I can have the game playing in the background. Yay for lone work days! (Boo for having an extra project to do and working on Sunday!) Can't win them all, I guess ... in life as well as baseball. Okay ... onward ... Lineups: TWINS: Grossman, LF Santana, CF Rosario, RF Vargas, DH Paulsen, 1B Escobar, 3B Field, 2B Murphy, C Adrianza, SS Santiago, P NATS: Turner, SS Werth, DH Murphy, 2B Harper, RF Renden, 3B Eaton, CF Zimmerman, 1B Norris, C Goodwin, LF Roark, P It's a 'cool' 70 degress in West Palm, with a slight possibility of rain (only 15%), mostly/partly cloudy, and ... windy!! Says the winds are up around 25mph from the ENE. Not being familiar with the stadium there, not sure how that will affect the game ... either lots of homerums or no homeruns? Play ball!
  12. Squirrel
    It was someone from the Jays and he may or may not have botched a play in right field depending on how influential the wind was on that play.
  13. Squirrel
    6-2 final, Twins win.
  14. Squirrel
    The wind is pretty wicked today ...
  15. Squirrel
    Yup ... although I think even later this year might be too soon for Gordon ... but maybe not. But I think that's what it will be soon if not sooner.
  16. Squirrel
    Woohoo ... Stubbs knocks in two ... Garver scores all the way from 1st.
  17. Squirrel
    Heads up base running by Gordon. I like seeing that any time of the year.
  18. Squirrel
    They said left center on the TV ...
  19. Squirrel
    Wooohooo ... and the big man swings big!! Twins up 3-0 now.
  20. Squirrel
    Well, this mod is happy that you jumped in and did it! And yes ... that's a big huge hint to you all you game threaders out there!!! Do I have to say it louder ... YOU JUST JUMPED IN AND DID IT! (That's what ST is for!)

    1. Out to lunch 2. He went with them 3. Hmm ... a lunch 3-some? 4. Not since '91 5. Yes.

    Btw, the actual day is called National I Want You to be Happy Day. It is observed annually on March 3 and was created as a day encouraging us to do something to make others happy. Putting a smile on someone’s face tends to put one on ours, too.
  23. Squirrel
    And ... tonight that's just what I did. I get requests fairly often for my carrot cake with cinnamon cream cheese frosting ... so, that's what I made. Man, it smells SO GOOD!
  24. Squirrel
    If you had the right work out music it would be a snap. You should put together an appropriate play list for that!

    Game thread is kind of the Report from the Fort article here: http://twinsdaily.com/topic/25084-article-report-from-the-fort-2017-it-begins/?do=findComment&comment=587714 Gives lineups and talks Hughes and ... well ... even though 'game thread' isn't in the title, it kind of serves that purpose.
