Never heard that version before, but I couldn't help recalling how my uncle a retired police officer felt about the Beatles. He said they were the ruination of all society values. And when John Lennon was shot he said 1 down 3 to go

Sooooooooo he thought murdering a stranger was less offensive than singing "come together," "give peace a chance," "all you need is love"?

 

Sounds like he'd be a real fun guy at a party.

Save this for the Fun With Numbers thre-... wait, never mind, it's not fun.

Scoreless inning booked

We could use some more of that

And a 4 spot now

[PDX Twin]

Buxton seems to be swinging for the fences and chasing bad pitches again. Will he end up batting >.250?

[stringer bell]

Make this guy throw out of the stretch, so we don't have to watch the gyrations.

This isn't about Kirby Puckett

Nor a young lady from Nantucket 

The TD nannies don't calmly abide

Dirty limerick lines stated or implied

Somebody help me out here. I need something that rhymes with Puckett and Nantucket.

I knew Cleveland ownership was cheap, but I had no idea the entire coaching staff was sharing one hotel room on the road.

It means the Twins have grounded into more DPs than the Astros.
