Sorry, guys. Had a mess in aisle 7 after the elephants came through.

 

When you reach the Post #430 milestone,  you're supposed to say it in the form of one of Luther's 95 "theses"

OT question, I've never been to a Sonic. Am I missing anything? If so, what?

 

  Who is this Hippie on the mound?

I was just admiring his hair. But if you say so...

  You are missing nothing. Don't eat that crap. Eat real food.

Y'know, I'm starting to like Aaron Thompson. He's a pretty decent pitcher - and a better option than Stauffer and Boyer, in my opinion.

Does anybody live in an area where they can't tune into the Twins game on television? Just PM me and I'll show you how to hack the system. Honest. You'll never regret it.

Being the offspring of two Lutheran ministers, I know of oodles of Martin Luther quotes full of scatalogical flavor.

Dozier crawling like a puppy. That means he wasn't leading off far enough.

Twins Baseball!

Torii = Clutch

What is the exact definition of the baseline?

Aw shoot. I shouldn't have said that. It gave the WS a bright idea.

 

I guess it's no big deal that I wasn't able to listen to the end of the game. Wait, we might come back and win in the 11th. Oh, wait, somehow I feel like an idiot to even think of that.

 

In '10 you would say "I KNOW the Twins are going to win." In '11 you could say "I THINK the Twins are going to win." In '12 you would say "I HOPE the Twins are going to win." In '13 you would say "I WISH the Twins would win." In '14 you'd say "I think the Twins are going to lose." In '15 we all shout "I KNOW THE TWINS ARE GONNA LOSE."

That's actually my May-Sep progression over that time, not my '10 - '15 progression.

  Albers looks like a pro bowler.

Oh, right. I should have thought of that. But somehow I felt like it was September already.

the Lemon-Berry slush is pretty awesome, and I like the onion rings even if (or maybe because) they are pretty greasy.  Beyond that, you aren't missing anything.

 

Masters update:

 

Spieth -17 thru 8

Rose -13 thru 8

Phil -12 thru 9

DJ -10 thru 11

 

Rory -8 thru 9

Tiger -5 thru 9 and may have busted his wrist on a tree root with his 2nd shot on 9.  He's in a bit of pain.

 

What is the exact definition of the baseline?

 

There's no such thing as a baseline until someone tries to make a play on a runner.  Then it's a straight line from the runner to the base, +/- 3 feet either direction.

 

Or was that question just rhetorical?

I couldn't remember how many feet on either side.

ETA: I did know what a baseline was. Honestly. Just not the exact definition.

ETA (again): Where does the shortstop stand?

I wonder why Zuke is not better at throwing to second base.

Hey, you're way ahead of me. I saw your comment before I saw the play

Annnnnnnd, why is Boyer on the major league roster?

Was that hit a replay?

Boyer seems to be serving up one meatball after another.

Boyer has to go. 

The Mighty Whiteys are flexing their muscles?

I think it's a clever ruse such that we don't have to face their closer at the start of the inning.

 

 

Please let me read tomorrow that Boyer is sent to Rochester.
