Of course he did that on purpose. Can somebody relay the Hawkism?

Did you see that? Joe made the pain go away. What a guy.

No I didn't. What happened? Did he put a bandaid on the bad owie?

My son just asked if he could have a snack, and then showed up with Cracker Jacks!

 

The Twins are mowing down the Sox, my son finds Cracker Jacks in the pantry and all is good with the world.

 

It would have been absolutely perfect, but the prize inside the bag was a Tigers sticker. So I opened a bag too, and got an Angels sticker. That's OK...there's a lot of season left to get it right.

He made him smile. Laughter is the best medicine.

93 mph with the sink and movement Gibson has, he looks just great out there.

A few more insurance runs would be nice, if only to ensure Hawk's continued silence.

 

I love listening to the Sox feed when they are getting thumped.

I hope that Graham pitches today.  

Here's a fun fact about the game. Assuming the Twins get six more outs, they move into a tie for 2nd place in the American Central....the Tigers just got beat by the Astros

10-8

8 K's!!! That's the 3rd time he's done that!

Gibson's pitches look great even in the 8th inning, and he has 8 Ks.

Anyone know if WSI is still around?  Most of us ex-BYTOers have been banned from there, but someone needs to setup an account as I'm sure there's an epic meltdown going on right now. 

We should let Gibson finish his own game.

Send him out for 9!

Give him the 9th Gibson is shredding them at this point.

 

I hope that Graham pitches today.  

How about not?

Tigers lose, Royals down 6-1 in the ninth.

They ain't comin' back.

"The lights are not on, so therefor they will not take full effect."-Dan Gladden.

With 106 pitches thrown and a huge lead I would not send him back out.  Remember, his surgery was not that long ago.  And Graham needs the work.

They ain't comin' back.

This will leave the Twins (by percentage points) holding the first wild card slot.

We get to skip the bottom of the ninth today, right?

Just completed my top 50 prospects for the draft list, so you will have access to that soon.
