What's with that Indiana Jones set out in CF anyway?

Heh...  I HATE those rocks.

 

I lived in LA for the 2000's, til I mistakenly took a wrong turn and came East-  

But had to go to that godforsaken OC  for my Twinkie fix every year- (and also the Yanks- cuz it would get ROWDY- that's another tale for another time)

 

But, in those early 00's, Disney still owned them, and also the Ducks, and it was nothing more than a cross-marketing opportunity for them.  Get those turistas to stay in the same Disney hotel, and hit Disneyland and a ballgame or hockey game on the same trip.  $$$

 

That's when they had those truly, truly, worse-than-the-70s-Astros uniforms, with the angel wings on the PERIWINKLE  jerseys, (cross marketing for their 'Angels in the Outfield" movie), and the Ducks, of course, (cross-marketing for their 'Mighty Ducks' I-VII), in their signature maroon-and-teal.  (TEAL!). So, Disney had just opened their "California Adventure" theme park, and that's when they put those ridiculous, stupefying rocks in the ballpark- to slyly suggest to baseball fans, that, 'Hey, I wonder why I suddenly feel the need to visit Disneyland's least-attended theme park..."

 

When Artie Moreno took over mid-decade, and made the Angels be from LA again, and got rid of those unsightly periwinkles for major-league red, I thought he'd maybe get rid of those stupid rocks, too, but.... bridge too far, I guess.

 

Seems like Ricky would have much better stats if he only had to face Trout, Calhoun, Escobar and Pujols. The bottom of the order, perhaps the bottomest bottom of the order in baseball, is killing him.

 

I cannot lie...  Twins' bottom is pretty bottomy too.

Buxton and Grossman are like Hockey Players trying to go bar down. 

I don't know, Grossman is becoming a curiosity.

It looks like the Twins will stay undefeated against the Angels, at least until tomorrow. They're the only team they can consistently beat this season...

How does one get named after a New Mexican city anyhow.

 

That is pretty strange

 

Almost as strange as a Hockey Player named after a City in Missouri. 

The Twins bottom .

 

Grossy and Bux have Park's Disease, though, and can only hit solo shots.

Pronunciation.

Parents as drunk choosing a name as they were at conception?

 

Now I feel bad.  His parents are probably nice people.   And their son seems like a nice lad.  He signed with Anaheim so he could be closer to his girlfriend Carmen just down the road.

I'm betting his first name is also Albuquerque, but Al is less confusing, especially for Bert.

Pacing themselves, perhaps?

This is a... good thing... in Canadish?

Heh. Good call. Bert's pronunciations do have a way of taking wrong turns...

Is it just me, or whenever the Twins aren't hitting in runs with HRs, they're hitting in runs with groundouts...

 

Well, at least they're not striking out a billion times.

Wow, letting the runs pile on in the later innings, kicking the ball around every which way... 

 

Is the "Twins' Way" contagious?

 

Them Angels got it ba-a-a-a-a-d.

You'll appreciate my jinx once the Twins finish one game worse than the Braves so that they can get the 1st overall pick in next year's draft.

Curiously, yes.

 

If you see this beer, buy it, it's bloody good.

Single wide? Really? What kind of company names a beer after a type of mobile home? Plus, have you seen what most mobile home parks look like?

 

The Angels are going to get a good talking to after this game. Delbert Grady may be the speech giver

That only works if there is a major house cleaning in the Twins FO.
