I visited ChiTown's one time but got bored playing Connect The Dots.

Really hope that is not a euphemism for something...

I'm not saying it is all you can ask for, but the Twins got the ball to their closer with a lead.

 

Yeah, but at least it's not like Absalom or he'd be in danger of getting caught by it coming out of the dugout. By the way, Chi-Town, you'd have loved Absalom.

 

  Oh, he's dreamy.

 

I'm not saying it is all you can ask for, but the Twins got the ball to their closer with a lead.

 

  It literally is.

That right there is very close to getting you banned! heh

Ballgame!!

. For 10 mil we should have gotten both of them, like a BOGO

Typical Buy One Get One Free deal - it convinces you to get two of something you didn't even need one of, because, hey, it's Free!

TWINS WIN! TWINS WIN!  WAAAAAHOOOO!

Really nice win.

 

Yeah, but at least it's not like Absalom or he'd be in danger of getting caught by it coming out of the dugout. By the way, Chi-Town, you'd have loved Absalom.

What/who is that?

This once, no. She's a musician. The library must have some sheet music. Written music is all a bunch of dots and so forth.

Good game. I love that Perk is actually getting a chance at saves not just keeping his arm loose.

TWINS WIN! TWINS WIN!  WAAAAAHOOOO!

My, my Chi-Town. I didn't realize you were so easily pleased!

 

My, my Chi-Town. I didn't realize you were so easily pleased!

Hey ... I takes what I can get and it is joyful!

 

My, my Chi-Town. I didn't realize you were so easily pleased!

The Twins don't win that often, so it takes a rare Twins win to rile her.

Good win

Can I just say I"m becoming fascinated with Santana's 65 ABs without a walk. We aren't talking record or anything...Alex Sanchez with 133 ABs without a walk one year. But, 65 ABs with a walk for a lead-off hitter is pretty impressive work.

What/who is that?

He was one of King David's sons. I can't seem to find the part about his hair online, so you'll have to content yourself with this:

 

2 Samuel Chapter 13
1 And it came to pass after this, that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

2 And Amnon was so vexed, that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin; and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her.

3 But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man.

4 And he said unto him, Why art thou, being the king's son, lean from day to day? wilt thou not tell me? And Amnon said unto him, I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister.

5 And Jonadab said unto him, Lay thee down on thy bed, and make thyself sick: and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come, and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it at her hand.

6 So Amnon lay down, and made himself sick: and when the king was come to see him, Amnon said unto the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand.

7 Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him meat.

8 So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was laid down. And she took flour, and kneaded it, and made cakes in his sight, and did bake the cakes.

9 And she took a pan, and poured them out before him; but he refused to eat. And Amnon said, Have out all men from me. And they went out every man from him.

10 And Amnon said unto Tamar, Bring the meat into the chamber, that I may eat of thine hand. And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them into the chamber to Amnon her brother.

11 And when she had brought them unto him to eat, he took hold of her, and said unto her, Come lie with me, my sister.

12 And she answered him, Nay, my brother, do not force me; for no such thing ought to be done in Israel: do not thou this folly.

13 And I, whither shall I cause my shame to go? and as for thee, thou shalt be as one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, I pray thee, speak unto the king; for he will not withhold me from thee.

14 Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced her, and lay with her.

15 Then Amnon hated her exceedingly; so that the hatred wherewith he hated her was greater than the love wherewith he had loved her. And Amnon said unto her, Arise, be gone.

16 And she said unto him, There is no cause: this evil in sending me away is greater than the other that thou didst unto me. But he would not hearken unto her.

17 Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her.

18 And she had a garment of divers colours upon her: for with such robes were the king's daughters that were virgins apparelled. Then his servant brought her out, and bolted the door after her.

19 And Tamar put ashes on her head, and rent her garment of divers colours that was on her, and laid her hand on her head, and went on crying.

20 And Absalom her brother said unto her, Hath Amnon thy brother been with thee? but hold now thy peace, my sister: he is thy brother; regard not this thing. So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.

21 But when king David heard of all these things, he was very wroth.

22 And Absalom spake unto his brother Amnon neither good nor bad: for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

23 And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baalhazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king's sons.

24 And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheepshearers; let the king, I beseech thee, and his servants go with thy servant.

25 And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all now go, lest we be chargeable unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.

26 Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?

27 But Absalom pressed him, that he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.

28 Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon; then kill him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.

29 And the servants of Absalom did unto Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and every man gat him up upon his mule, and fled.

30 And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom hath slain all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left.

31 Then the king arose, and tare his garments, and lay on the earth; and all his servants stood by with their clothes rent.

32 And Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother, answered and said, Let not my lord suppose that they have slain all the young men the king's sons; for Amnon only is dead: for by the appointment of Absalom this hath been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

33 Now therefore let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead: for Amnon only is dead.

34 But Absalom fled. And the young man that kept the watch lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came much people by the way of the hill side behind him.

35 And Jonadab said unto the king, Behold, the king's sons come: as thy servant said, so it is.

36 And it came to pass, as soon as he had made an end of speaking, that, behold, the king's sons came, and lifted up their voice and wept: and the king also and all his servants wept very sore.

37 But Absalom fled, and went to Talmai, the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.

38 So Absalom fled, and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

39 And the soul of king David longed to go forth unto Absalom: for he was comforted concerning Amnon, seeing he was dead.

Twins win!!!

 

I visited ChiTown's one time but got bored playing Connect The Dots.

Really hope that is not a euphemism for something...

 

To my expectations, euphemisms are not likely to be "boring"... Unless bored is also a euphemism.

 

Anyway, speaking of comics, this is the image i thought of at the time...

 

"ChiTown, i'm bored. What plaything can you offer me today?"

Oh, and by the way, i think we won. ChiTown, hope your heartburn is better!

Nice win! The Twins got some surprisingly good pitching against a tough Tigers lineup.

 

I'll be in charge of tomorrow's game thread. 12:00's a bit early for me, but I'll get it done.

Anybody else annoyed by the poor base running on this squad. Joe looked brutal a few games ago, can't remember the game. Arcia at home, seriously? Act like you give a crap and get in a run-down. He knew he was dead so he just runs into the tag? I realize these guys are pros and don't make mistakes on rundowns very often, but geez. Also, who goes home on contact with the infield in? If they play in, it has to get through the IF. 2nd and 3rd becomes 1st and third. I hoped Molly would bring some smart base running. So far I am disappointed.

Get to bed now and I think you'll be rested and ready

 

Oh, and no drinking tonight either

 

Good game. I love that Perk is actually getting a chance at saves not just keeping his arm loose.

Even more important, when he gets a chance at a save, he gets a save.

yeah, I get you. Not good. But for tonight ... I'm reveling in a win ... I'll get irked with the base-running tomorrow

Drinking... water?

 

 

 

 

 

(I'm not of legal age of actual drinking, plus I never will drink...)

Water is okay. It's the best choice. It's pretty much all I have to offer visitors. That, and milk.

Pretty sure that Pelf's FIP declined quite a bit from tonight's start.
