Word is Buxton wanted to have the Ruddigore overture as his walk-up music, but they could not get permission from the Gilbert and Sullivan estates.  I guess they were big White Sox fans.

Pssst. G&S is out of copyright.

Please use regular bowling balls and not human children you monster!

No i think he is using regular balls.

 

The grandkids win if any are still standing...

 

Last year, Chief picked up a 7-10 spare.

We'll see if they are nimbler now...

I think the money would be on less nimble after getting injured by a bowling ball

Good way to start, Polanco.

We're going to be stuck with Correa for three years if his batting continues like this.

Have "The Simpsons" done a send-up of Ruddigore?

If not, I'm not familiar with it.

Sano batting average .067 is 7th in the order. That is impressive

They did Pinafore.

Good enough for me.

Did he stop that from going over?

Good start, Paddack...

Yes but he couldn’t stop it from hitting the ground 

When thinking about the offense in the preseason, I wasn't expecting the bottom third of the order to have a combined batting average of .377 this late in the season. 

You do add them up, right?

That is what Dazzle said. He robbed a homer, just didn’t catch it

Watching the Twins makes you realize how much fun the Royals are having and how little fun the Twins are having

Woohoo ... Perez didn't hit a home run!

 

Silver linings ... 

Lopez has good infield  power.

I know it well. (The Simpsons' version)

My better-half's cousin's spouse directed multiple G&S productions here in Twincy.

Which reminds me, G&S is only one letter off from G&T.  Time for a libation.

Wow, that was a terrible top of the 2nd there.

Relax, it's only $35M a year.

What is the obsession with Rocco and Garlick ?? its not like the guy is hitting left handers any better than the rest , rather see Celestino more if he is gonna be here, dont get it ??

I'm sorry you didn't.  If you have read, "Homicide Life on the Killing Streets", seen "Homicide" or "The Wire" on the teevee, you'll know it.  I think it is David Simon's favorite anectode.

Nice little ducksnort there from Sano.

A weak-hitting backup catcher hitting 8th.....as the DH!

Very on-brand.

What is his obsession with Larnach whose strike out percentage equals his batting average?

I'll take production of any sort from him at this point.
