Yes, lots of thunder and heavy rain for about 2 hours. Hi, neighbor.

Hi.

 

They have internet in Bisbee??

[Gibby]

Damn near Dong!

[ashbury]

You're absolutely right!

[DiscGolfer]

how did he get that?

[LaBombo]

 

thank you.

 

get any rain tonight?

 

That reminds me.    The folks wanted me to ask you if you've seen a white and red '78 Holly Park 14x70 with a tipout riding the current through your neighborhood.

That was our primary target on a raid in '68.  Too much flak, though, so we leveled a rice factory near Haiphong.

[Winston Smith]

Dozier very homerun happy. Sometimes a single is OK!

[wavedog]

Twins score!!

[DiscGolfer]

Nice Joe, I really wasn't expecting that

Good news, bad news situation, 'bombo.

 

Yes, seen it about 30 minutes ago, headed down the Pantano at about 15 knots.

 

But it ain't 14x70 no more.

Damn near spit-take.

My old CO flew the post-strike BDA recce on that one.    Says you guys took out the bamboo processing plant down the trail too.

Sano...strong, like bull.

Post Of The Night, in my book.

I agree. His weakness seems to be that with two strikes he doesn't have the ability to go to the opposite field if it's called for.

[Mike Sixel]

Sano is legit. You get what you pay for......

[walt-o-meal]

you never expect a base hit from a 3x batting champ.  That's how they trick you.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Almost there... Just hold on for a few more at bats.

[DiscGolfer]

Sano hits the ball too hard, it comes back to the fielder too quickly.  That's not the Twins way.

[LaBombo]

Good/bad here, too.     Pops has been wanting to upgrade to a doublewide for quite a while, but Mom's worried about the Hummels.

[JB_Iowa]

You guys did a good job of pulling them through.

[Mike Sixel]

Despise pinch running here. On second? No......ugh.

[wavedog]

Sano does not look like a rookie. Did not swing at balls and went with that low outside pitch nicely to RF.

[Halsey Hall]

Gosh, Sano is fun to watch, and only going to get better. 

[DiscGolfer]

I was expecting the base hit or walk, just not the double to drive one in.

[ScrapTheNickname]

I guess the manager doesn't have enough decisions to make so when there's a bad one to be made he gets all excited and makes it.

[Halsey Hall]

 

 

Despise pinch running here. On second? No......ugh.

Especially with poof up to bat.

[jimmer]

yeah, a top notch get for our team by Bill Smith.

[Danchat]

Where would we be without Sano? Man, he's just getting adjusted to the majors... I look forward to when he's in his prime.

Hummels?

 

Mrs Chief'll be scouring the wash by daylight.  Perhaps earlier with a flashlight.
