    We won today.  You win one tomorrow, that's two in a row.  You win the next day...that's called "a winning streak."  It's been done.

    A gem.   And by the way, in a game in July that we can care about. How does that feel, folks?

Terrible run down execution

I wish Santana could have gotten out of it in the end, but he ended up settling for the out.

 

Oh well. At least he got on.

I'd say it's one of the best songs of all time that is named after a sub par city.

 

Not sure how you missed this one.

 

Richard and Bert blaming Santana being picked off on Dozier.  Good grief.  Before that, they were making excuses for Hunter if he didn't plate Santana. Again, the blame went to Dozier.  They act as if Dozier would have definitely succeeded if he attempted to do something selfless to move Santana.  

 

He's one of our best hitters and it's early in the game.  Let's preach giving away outs and doing so very early in the game.  Especially from one of our best bats, if not our best bat currently.

Players are creatures of habit and many are superstitious.  I, for one, always wore #6 or #16.  A ridiculous comfort level thing that makes no sense looking back (like many superstitions and beliefs in, and about, the game) but was a thing in my mind in the first half of my life.

I chose #32, Koufax's number, when I played slow-pitch softball. I wasn't a pitcher, but I still anticipated many no-hit games for myself.

Strike zone tonight so far has been the size of a pinhole.

 

I'm not sure you can fit a baseball through it. EDIT: though Gibson's half of the 3rd went well for us.

 

And that's your GCU: your Gary Cederstrom Update.

Somehow I don't think that will catch on :)

6 more innings for someone to score...

 

CBU inferred.

 

Long distance phone call? What year is this?

 

 

l still make long distance phone calls from my landline.  You get 2 or 3 hours a month with your regular bill.

 

Regardless of everything, the sound quality on my landline is far superior to ANYTHING I've ever heard on a cell.  Plus less chance of interception.

 

I'm a dinosaur.

My #6 was for Steve Garvey. #16 was when I couldn't get #6 :-)

I bet you can get an ap to tune your cell phone to your hearing aids

Jose Fernandez, likely my favorite SP in the game today, makes his return and his team wins AND he hits a HR!  Way to go!

Rosario in scoring position for Sano.

 

Let's see what happens...

 

Ken Rosenthal picks Dozier and Perkins for his All-Star Team.

 

Hope that comes true.

both deserving

WHIFF!

And if it comes back to you, it was yours all along?

Not always. Maybe it just has good taste. Or thinks you do.

 

WHIFF!

 

Dang

 

My feed froze on the 2-2 count

My #6 was for Steve Garvey. #16 was when I couldn't get #6 :-)

Our teammate picked #55. That was the Control Data character code (non-ASCII) for "blank". You had to be there, I guess.

Tequila bottle.

So if Buxton has his heart set on 7, can they give him the character code for 7?

Bert has been preaching get 'em over, get 'em in for years. Maybe if it was the 6th or 7th against the Royals because of their BP. Outs are too precious to give up to try to get a runner to third with one out. The percentage of getting a run with a runner on third and one out isn't that high anymore anyway.

Gotta say, I like the bunts.  I hate the Royals, but I like the bunts.

nice play Joe!

Pretty nice play by Mauer. It's actually the kind of play he's hesitated on too often.

Big at-bat early in the game. Perez is a good hitter, but Gibson has handled him well.
