What about the street ranger?

 

I think he's more commonly known by abbreviation... as in 'howdy, st. ranger!'

 

Or is it saint ranger? I get the two confused. I'm not familiar enough with 'em, i guess.

I can hardly wait for the game tonight.

 

Really.

 

Truly,

 

Seriously.

 

Well, okay, maybe in a "rip the bandage off quickly" sort of way.

A scoreless top of the first will be very welcome.

 

 

As a bonus, he has the three name thing going, which Texans seem to love....

 

Yep, Texans and serial killers.

This will be one of my first chances to watch an entire ballgame in some time. A lot of small things going on plus opportunities to play a lot of golf have kept me away from my TV.

 

It is also an opportunity to watch Gibson pitch. I like the way he goes about his business and he seems like a really nice young man.

But why is the 1st batter on base again?

This is getting tiresome.

Get to watch a rare Twins game down here in Texas. Hopefully won't be over after the 1st inning.

And a 2nd.

 

2 on for Prince.

You are correct that it's nearly impossible to be stopped for speeding.... The date: May 2014. I was cruising on I-35 somewhere between Dallas and Austin, traveling 88 in a 70. I look back and see a State Trooper gaining traction on me in the side mirrors (the car was filled to the brim with stuff I was moving down from MN). Brand new, less than 24 hours in my new state, I thought "oh ****, I can't afford a fine right now." I signaled to the right lane and slowed down, anticipating the cherry lights to flick on. INSTEAD, the trooper kept right on moving, going well above 90 MPH, and the sweat stopped dripping down my face.

 

They used to allow passing on the yellow, it was accepted that the oncoming and the passed car would move over on some of their wider two lanes. Sadly they don't tell u that at the border. At first it was quite disconcerting. I think they outlawed that now.

And Gibson escapes.

 

NO SCORE going into the bottom of the 1st.

 

C'mon Twins!!!!

Sweet! A much needed double play!

Yep, Texans and serial killers.

Because this is a most excellent thought, and because I'm sure Brian wouldn't mind, and, being his editor, I put that into the article. :)

He has an editor? So the stuff he writes isn't all his fault?

Not only that, the stuff he doesn't write is all his fault.

Dick just told us there was a players only meeting today! And there was the Molitor meeting, and the expletive fueled Hunter rant. Maybe they should take batting practice instead of all those meeting? Ok, that was snarky, and I apologize profusely!

Twins threaten with 2 on in the bottom of the first, don't score. 0-0, CBU.

The Texas Rangers were named after the New York Rangers but they weren't named for them. They were named for the Texas Rangers. (I'm confident that Riverbrian knows this but I couldn't help myself saying so.)

 

Yeah I did

 

Thank You Chuck Norris

Not only that, the stuff he doesn't write is all his fault.

Don't forget, the stuff he does right is his fault.

Twins - Rangers: Two Teams. Two styles of ineptitude. Who will prevail in this titanic battle between two teams bound and determined to make baseball history..and not in a good way....

Don't forget, the stuff he does right is his fault.

That... is a purely hypothetical assumption, not yet backed up by experimental observation.

I'm going to try this one more time:

 

Win Twins.

 

Keep trying... Don't stop. We are all right behind you. Laughing and Pointing but behind you none the less. 

 

When given the choice between optimism and pessimism... Always choose optimism because Opt is cooler than Pess. 

 

And besides... You'll always have that stopped clock is right twice a day thing going for you.

Twins. I'm gonna say Twins.

I don't think Dozier will hold the title for K's as long as Darwin did, though.  Sano might have it by August 1 next year.

 

It's amazing to me that the all-time single-season record for the Twins is only 145 K's.  Harmon had 145 walks in a season.  There have been almost 300 instances of a hitter striking out more than 145 times in a year, none (so far) by a Twin.

 

Anderson and his crazy bat to contact theories.
