Way to keep that all-important sixth run from scoring.

I'm very glad i don't have to cook for you.  

Yeah... You are always putting stuff into stuff.

Even the other team's OF's converging on each at high speed has me wincing due to the mental image of the replay of the Buxton/Kvasnicka collision.

If we really do come back I don't know if I could handle it.

Only when I'm not being lazy.... and lately I seem to be lazier and lazier.

Unforgivable to be picked off in that situation. I think Plouffe might have got lucky.

Damn it Plouffe... Inexcusable.

So, now that Nolasco is healthy, and still pitching terribly, what is the new excuse? 

Love that Black & Gold:

Was going to make a joke about this but the effort seems a little much.

 

In other words, I've got that beat...

He's pitching terribly, and therefore not healthy.  It's just that he doesn't know it yet.

Marny Gelner is really nice, but if she handed me $100 worth of scratch off tickets (real value = $0), something snarky would surely come out of my mouth on live TV.

Nah .... you'd probably get about $2 off them.

 

Not enough for beer money, though.

Looks to me like the Kernels ought to keep wearing those black & gold unis .... currently kicking Peoria's b*tts to the tune of 11-0.

Well, six in a row retired.

Schafer has his hit against a lefty.

Marney: ...and as fan of the game... Here are 100 dollars worth of scratch off tickets from the Minnesota State Lottery?

 

Scrapthenickname: Thank You so much Marney... I have a gift for you as well... Approximately 20 napkins from the concession stand up top.

Friggin Obama.

It's possible.  He almost smoked Ahmad Rashad with a shanked tee shot the other day.  Maybe he hit Nolasco in the right elbow and there's a media coverup conspiracy.

 

I'll check with my uncle.  He's the one who broke the story that we never went to the moon.

Net take one buck after paying a bored 6 year old in your row a dollar to do the actual scratching off.

Nine in a row.  Ricky is battlin'.

Nope... Price is up to 5 bucks now. Kids are passing by dollars lying on the street now.

Yup. His tail is completely off for the night, I think.

Well, the Twins got Ricky a lead ... let's see what hee can do with it.

I think the key to Ricky Nolasco winning games is to never get him a lead.

You're probably right, but then there's my weird ability to sometimes be able to Tom Sawyer kids into getting fired up about doing boring, repetitive tasks.  Not always, but a thing of beauty when it works.

 

Aaand Bremer with yet another cry of wolf on a can o'corn.

Looks like Neddly-diddly-doodly is doin' some managin'.

That actually works if you think of it as distinct from him being credited with a Win.  Somewhere you can probably see what the team's record is when he starts games.

 

Not going to look though, because as noted earlier, lazy, but even more so because I fear that looking it up might take away my last hope that there's a way the Twins get value from his contract.

But I sure do love watching that Kurt DiMaggi----- ahem, Suzuki..

Croutons in salad?

 

If you just put the lettuce and dressing and tomatoes in between toast. It'll be the same thing.

 

Croutons in there is kinda like a salad sandwich.

Use mayonnaise as the dressing and sprinkle in some bacon bits, and you basically have a BLT if you include croutons.

Burns: "You!  Strawberry!  Hit a home run!".

 

Strawberry hits a homer.

 

Burns:  "I told him to that!"

 

Smithers:  "Brilliant strategy, sir."
