I too enjoyed listening to strange and exotic radio stations late at night on my little blue hand crank flashlight radio. If it was dark in time, i could barely get wbbm from chicago with old time radio...

 

I used to spin the AM Dial when younger just to hear far away stations. 

 

If you do that now... They all have the same programming and it isn't as much fun. 

That's called "Dad preview."

If that's what I have to look forward to, I'm not ready to be a dad.

 

I noticed that. The exit ramps have signs that say "Scenic Overlook"

 

I use the exit ramp in Fargo to check traffic in Bismarck. 

 

If that's what I have to look forward to, I'm not ready to be a dad.

 

No one is ready... If we waited until ready Los Angeles would have a population of 186.

Fun fact of the day: Former Twins 3rd baseman Danny Valencia has the highest batting average on today's Oakland A's line-up (.328) and is batting clean up.

This page refresh thingy stinks.

Way back in the day, I was a weekend announcer at a small radio station in WI.  It was both AM and FM.  Except after the sun went down. 

 

By law, we had to shutdown the AM portion because WCCO AM went to full power.  Our little station would have caused static in WCCO AM's signal  

I knew that Park was going to get a hit. 

 

How did I know?

 

I picked up Chris Davis in a fantasy baseball trade because I needed Park insurance and that put Park on the bench today. 

 

It was a no doubter that Park would get a hit. 

another lead!!

This game has so little flow Dick is missing pitches.

Dick just said Suzuki is hitting .100 against lefties.  Why didn't we start Cento?

Clear channel, our local station did it also.

So it was you guys who messed up the CCO feed, so I had to listen to the Jamestown station all the way over in Bismarck---

I loved the job, but if you're not hooked into the voice over/commercial group, the pay is pretty poor.  Pretty much everything is automation now.  I miss John "Records" Landecker, Dr. Demento and The True Don Blue....

We were so small, it wouldn't have been much more than a fart in the wind....

Jeepers, somebody tell me that Plouffe and Zuke are only out there to give Escobar and Centeno a breather.

CBU:

 

I don't think i jinxed 'em yet...

You could hear one of those on ol' KSJB...  I thought it was sound effects from the hog price reports.

On the radio in the south, there's not 1, not 2, not 3.... not 57, not 58.... not 182...

 

...religious firebrand stations

 

Except for the occasional country station, that's like all there is

And in other news... A gorilla in Cincinnati creates a new water park attraction.  

 

 

I remember doing a fly in fishing trip as a kid into northern Ontario.  My dad brought a radio up with us just for fun to see if we could pick up something.  During the day we didn't but at night we listened to the Cardinals game.  Picked up a St. Louis station all the way in Ontario.  Can't remember if it was AM or FM.

 

Thought it was very cool.  No internet back then... 

Used to be fun driving through the midwest on a late summer night and finding so many ballgames on the radio from literally all over

 

Jeepers, somebody tell me that Plouffe and Zuke are only out there to give Escobar and Centeno a breather.

Centeno should be getting more playing time.  I think the pitchers respond better to his energy.

Very athletic.

There has got to be that stat, somewhere-  runs given back after team scores.  

 

Gotta be.  

 

And we gotta be at the bottom.

not sure what THAT was, except an out for any somewhat decent outfielder.  Athletic play though. Corner OF defense hasn't cost us anything this year.

We are in the second inning, one barehand dropped, one throw to bag missed, and I am not sure how to describe what happened in RF.

Yeh, we didn't have all that many in ND, but (as they say in the Blues Brothers)  we had BOTH kinds of music-  Country and Western.

How many more runs are the twins going to allow sano to cost them before they end their experiment?
