Benetti: The Sox were up three-nothing in this game.

Stone: Yeah, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

Would we breaking an unwritten rule, or breaking new ground, if we threw out a position player to pitch the 9th in a winning game?

I believe the Dodgers have done it. So no

 

Edit: Orioles

I'm so broken down these days, I must be faster than Usain Bolt by now. Watch out boys, he might just try to run. Faster than an ugly rumor on the internet!

Stone is hilarious.

Why can't games ever be easy?

 

I have to admit that I'm really enjoying watching the Twins put the Sox in their place. It's only one game, but it's fun as hell to watch.

It's especially fun when you live in Chicago!

Since we scored 7 in that inning, does that mean we can’t call it a crooked number?

Rocco should go over to the White Sox dugout and say: "How do you like me NOW!!!" Better yet, put the song on over the loud speaker!

Holy ****, Sano. Ease up there a bit, buddy.

Have we sated Glunn's lust for insurance runs yet?

Stone is hilarious.

But Benetti has made all the difference. Stone was nowhere as good when he was with Hawk. Benetti is really good by himself, but I think he is especially good at bringing out the best in his partner.

It's a little bent in the middle. At least it's not round.

 

Just did a peruse of baseball-reference.com and saw that we are the only team in the AL with five guys who’ve made 15 starts for the team and have an ERA+ over 100.
 

 

So if I'm going to worry about the rotation, should I do it outside the forum where it won't bother anyone, like smoking?

 

And if so, is worrying about their xFIP as acceptable as vaping?

This broadcast team is actually really enjoyable. Haven't been able to say that, well, almost never while living here.

What a delightful game.

Good stuff right there!!!

Winner, winner!  Nice work boys!

 

Go Twins!

This sentence left me with the subliminal suggestion that Glunn is Satan.

 

It's always the quiet ones...

Way to go Twins!!!!!

I hope the game recap author gives credit where credit is due ...

 

 

SQUIRREL!!!!

 

Wonder if they mention it in the Sox post-game report.

We rip on hawk, but I find Dick to be just as obnoxious and as big of a homer.

Good thing we didn't sign Kelvin Herrera, huh? He's now got an ERA of 8.00 on the season.

Yeah ... having had to listen to Hawk over the last 19-20 years ... I don't agree. Not quite. There are degrees ... and then there are degrees. Hawk surpassed all of them for me, almost immediately. 

 

Waiting for the Rally Squirrel to make his way to the booth

 

Even as we speak, three Marketing interns are being locked in a conference room stocked with delivery pizza and Red Bull while Dave St Peter tells them menacingly that they won't be let out until they come up with a can't-miss promotion idea to capitalize on Squirrel.

Tonight's game recap author needs to be praised and paid heavily.  They'll be up til 3AM cataloging this box score and all the hit highlights.

People will be releasing dozens of squirrels in the stadium during the playoffs this year.

The ideal Play By Play announcer:

 

 

"Bother. It's another long fly ball. Probably won't go out. They can’t all, and some of them don’t."
