Chris Sale may demand to be traded to the Twins so he doesn't have to face them any more.

I bet the Sox would take Nolasco for him.

clearly a balk

 

Here is my list of REAL baseball hot dogs.
Rickey Henderson
Jose Canseco
Reggie Jackson
Manny Ramirez
Gary Carter
Dick Allen
Nyjer Moran
Barry Bonds
Hawk Harrelson
Tug McGraw

No list would be complete without Mel Hall of the Yankees.

The Twins have really neutralzed Abreu all year.  Great job of pitching him inside just enough.

Let's hope he only has one more at-bat and his team is down a touchdown.

I know this game has gone long, but in case anyone has forgotten, today's starter for the Sox was Chris Sale, pictured below:

Don't change White Sox. Please.

They said today was starwars day. A lot of days seem to be starwars day...

 

What's with that?

Great comp by Smalley - Derek Lowe, Kyle Gibson. Watched a lot of Lowe in Boston.

I'll try 'em.I thought it was yet another joke, better than all the rest: the Viener wiener.Sometimes ya feel like a heel. Sometimes ya don't.

Ich bin ein Wiener.

Chris Sale vs Twins in 2015: 7.36 ERA.

Chris Sale vs everyone else in 2015: 3.03 ERA.

Some things in baseball have no explanation.

Excellent late season outing by Gibson today.

Another good point from the FSN team - Gibson is in his 2nd full season.

 

I like his chances to be a solid top 3 starter in this league for some years to come.

Concur.

 

Outing... not to be confused with hitting.

Oh, and apparently, the Bears weren't able to make the field goal lead stand up that i saw while waiting for this game...

Wow, that last inning, a couple of the Sox players had "get me out of here" at bats.

Nice tag by Vargas.

ho hum.

... looks like terry ryan keeps his job another day ...

OK boys, 13 of your remaining 20 games are at home. Let's see what you got.

So concludes the season series. 13-6, was it?

BTW, Texas finishes with 14 of remaining 20 at home.

Rangers are winning 8 to 2 in the 6th.  Valencia has 2 RBIs for the A's.  Go A's.

 

Concur.

Outing..

Who was outed?

 

Are we still talking about Chief's high heels?

Correction: Sale vs rest of baseball: 2.73 ERA. Even more inexplicable.

That's what i get for tryin' to be clever. Cleverness leads to confusion which leads to frustration... something something dark side.

 

Nah, what i meant (can't speak for anyone else) was: Gibson was outing, as in getting outs. (As hitting is getting hits, hence the comment)

 

And i think it was Vienna Beef in (or under) the heels, as pictured in their advertisement.

 

But perhaps i should reread it all, to make sure i got it clear... Nah, more fun to check on the minor league scores...

Game over at 12-4.

 

Back to a game back...

 

Good to hear Valencia is enjoying some success.

Bloody day games start at 2AM, so I can't attend unless there's been tequila involved beforehand.

But it's nice to wake up to a chicken dinnah!

Thanks for saving me that sandwich!

Hey, wait a minute... What's this... Ketchup?!?

Oh, ffff... Ok, just this once.

You can't explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they take everything literally.

I think we should all demand that.
