Hey...

 

We got a winning record on the road. And we're playing on the road.

 

This should be fun!

 

There are several out there going to the games. I think Chief and glunn will be there. Blake? Dinger? Jimbo? Who will be there, raise your hand!

Chief and I will be there along with one of Chief's sons and both of Ash's sons.

Wish I could watch tonight if only for an opportunity to see Colon "run" the bases if he puts the ball in play. Alas, off to marimba band rehearsal. I'll check in for the late innings.

 

I believe that Joe Morgan is showing up on Thursday. I hope everybody treats him ok. 

If you're going to do Joe Morgan you have to have him repeat himself at least six times in order to "make" his point. That's about how many times I wished I had a pistol at hand when he was announcing. Though I never figured out if I was going to shoot the TV or myself. Mute buttons have saved a lot of lives.

This is an awfully late game for us on the east coast, but I have to tune in at least a few innings on the off-chance of seeing some or all of you if the camera angles are kind.

 

Also it would seem wrong to fail to witness the end of the Bartolo Colon Era for the Twins. How many innings before he is DFA? *

 

_{^{* Shhhh!!! I'm attempting a reverse jinx on his behalf of course.}}

Sad, that none of Chief's Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grand-kids aren't there, too.

Eh, I can tell that that one isn't going to be fun to edit. I can hear the conversation now ...

 

Editor: Uh, Brian ... are you or your computer having difficulties today? I had to take out all these duplicate lines. And it still didn't make sense.

 

Brian: No, I meant to do that. You need all those in there in order for it to make sense.

 

Editor: Oh. Okay. I'll put it back the way it was.

Now that the Twins are transaction central and have a new starter, Colon may be the odd man out of the rotation. If they next trade Kintzler's expiring contract, do you think Colon could be a back end reliever?

No.

we are down the right field line just past 1st base, a couple rows above the beautiful people seats, field level.

 

But tomorrow night, pay attention...look for blue "Twins daily.com" tee shirts when the view is of a LH hitter.

So I was at Coors Field for the Pirates series this past weekend.  On Friday night, at the end of the 6th inning, the Rockies gave one lucky fan a Rockies backpack full of gifts after randomly selecting the seat.

 

Mine was chosen.  It was awesome.

I expect you to post photos throughout the game. And don't say you don't know how to on your phone.

Bonus, I get home from work, and we're not down yet!

Just click on "add image" Chief, it'll work, I swear.

Circle Me Bert sign ready?

 

 

When we all get to heaven... There will be nobody from Wisconsin there. 

Jacob Leinenkugel probably made it. Of course, he wasn't born there.

Sano puts the ball in play for a single. Looks unlikely to be a 5-strikeout night tonight.

Shame, the super-titanium-platinum sombrero is pretty special.

Colon might have a chance to get past 4 innings tonight with a 1st like that.

Random googling on strikeouts, find this...

 

 

A minor league team struck out 5 batters -- and gave up 4 runs -- in one inning

 

 

Colon might have a chance to get past 4 innings tonight with a 1st like that.

 

And in his last start I thought he might be able to make it though 6 given his start.

Ryu's initial combination to Grossman of a sharp breaking curve followed by a tantalizing changeup swung clean through looked tough to deal with..

That was how his first inning versus the Yankees had us thinking too.

And now Granite backs away from the same first-pitch curve. I can't imagine being able to stand in there either.

will he even swing the bat?

nope

That was a fun strikeout of Colon.
