And we're off and running.  We get a soft liner for a DP, they get a soft ground ball and soft liner for hits.

    Having lived through it, the Pleistocene Epoch is wildly overrated, IMO.  No cable, and finding a good restaurant was impossible.

And now a double play ball that was 2" foul

Chris Mathews wouldn't want to host this game.

 

Easy.

 

"Kendrick may have the best raw power in a Draft that's short on promising sluggers. He packs a lot of strength in his 6-foot-3, 235-pound frame and can put on a show in batting practice that would do a big leaguer proud. Nevertheless, there's a split camp on how well his power will play in pro ball. Scouts who like him think his top-of-the-scale raw pop could translate into 30 homers annually in the Majors. Others think he has a grooved swing and lacks bat speed and believe he'll have trouble making contact against better competition. Kendrick's power will have to carry him because he doesn't have another average tool. He's a well below-average runner with fringy arm strength. Though he has played both infield corners for Oak Forest Academy, the Southeastern Louisiana recruit will be limited to first base at the next level."

That's not you??

Dear Chris Herrmann,

 

You need a quicker release... Running toward the dugout on the first base side is way too long of a setup before throwing and you'll have to throw across your body to get it to third.

 

Unless you thought it was third out... In that case... You are the catcher... The QB of the defense... And that means you can't make that mistake.

Milone is there with a fine brush for the detailed painting of the corners.

 

And, which is more, the ump is right there with him.

 

(That's a happy little tree. Some might think it's lumber, but it's planted upright on the batter's shoulder.)

That. Is. The. Point. Double point .. :)

3 outs per inning, Herm-zee.

I thought Kozma would bloop one in and make it 3-0. Would serve the Twins right for Herrmann forgetting how many outs there were.

Great at-bat by Nunez, followed by a terrible one by Vargas.

Checking in briefly, from beautiful downtown Midvale Utah. AshburySteven sends his best regards.

 

I haven't seen any Circus Boy Updates. 1-0 Cards, end of two?

I think it was a clever plot to bate the runner into coming home when he saw it was uncovered.

 

It almost worked too. If it had, i guess it would have been 2-0.

 

But only 1-0.

Yes.

Starting to feel like watching the most recent versions of the twins...get behind early, fail to come through in the scant scoring chances they have, and mental errors (how does the catcher not know how many outs there are?) not much fun viewing these days

A catcher really shouldn't... should he. Especially with runners on.

Until The Flash runs down a fly ball.

Midvale Utah?

 

Most other states already have their vales completed.

Until The Flash runs down a fly ball.

Certainly fun to see that...but I've been waiting for an offensive explosion going on two+ weeks now

For years now, and prolly for all my remaining days, I cannot say, see, or hear the word "Utah" without the phrase "We're the flyin' Elvis's, Yew-tahh Chapter" running through my head.

If there is a poll for most suburban metro area, Salt Lake City has my vote. Midvale is just one of a sequence of indistinguishable jurisdictions south of the center of the city. Maybe your explanation is why.

Milone doesn't have enough stuff to be more than a middle-of-the-rotation guy, but he is a major league starter.

There's no "there," there?

"Such a short flight, seems like you're being a little over-cautious, but I don't know."

Oakland might be an improvement.

NEVER swing at the first pitch after Molina visits the mound. He's gotten like 7 outs on 5 mound visits in the 2.5 games

Thanks Dave, Thanks Bark, Thanks Always33.

 

  I've been out with Mrs Chief today having lunch and watching Jurassic World.

 

Spoiler alert:  Skip the lines and rent the original.  Better movie and the popcorn's a lot cheaper on your couch.

Sam Neil Vs Chris Pratt? No contest!
