Or you can be thankful that you missed it.

 

Look at the time... It's 9:30... Two Hours deep and 5 innings haven't been completed. There will be a light smattering of people who stick this one out.

I'm thinking about getting smattered after a couple more innings of this...

So about that resigning Pelfrey thing..........ummmmm....yeah.

Exactly how many people are there in a light smattering?

 

In the U.S... It's 49

In Canada... It's 41

We're comin!!!!

WTF happened??? Sheesh ... leave to finish my baking ... and ... and ... that is very sad.

That's not even the worst part. While you were gone we agreed to blame you for this mess because your baking break jinxed it.

Zero.

In the U.S... It's 49

In Canada... It's 41

Another reason to be glad the metric system never caught on here.

Fine. Then I will be sending you no care packages!

Most will remember a blowout. Few will remember the hilarity of Terry Steinbach asking for a review on a home run while down 14 runs.

Uncle it is... I just yawned... My wife took the remote and said I see what the score is... I can't justify keeping the game on.

 

Good Night

Isn't over till it's over

I think Bert should throw a ball at someone. There must be an unwritten rule being broken somewhere in this game.

 

Isn't that Cole Devries pitching?

Most will remember a blowout. Few will remember the hilarity of Terry Steinbach asking for a review on a home run while down 14 runs.

 

He's practicin' some Managin'^TM, in case Gardy gets hisself fired.

So about that resigning Pelfrey thing..........ummmmm....yeah.

Normally I wouldn't talk about getting rid of a pitcher during a bad outing any more than I'd want to debate climate change because it's a hot day.

 

But Pelfrey pretty much melted both his polar icecaps tonight, I think.

Good Night

 

Following you out the door, I do believe.

 

I leave you with this game summary:

So wait, Gardy's already home in bed?

Fine. Then I will be sending you no care packages!

By coincidence, just before I read that I reconsidered and decided I'd lobby for blaming the jinx on the joker who applauded Pelfrey's ERA briefly going below 5 in the first inning tonight.

 

Unless you were the joker who wrote it, in which case I'm nominating it for Most Presciently Ironic Post of the Year.

Did Gardy get ejected, or spontaneously combust? If it's the former, he's one closer to breaking Earl Weaver's career AL ejection mark of 98.

all the moderators have left break out the booze!

Yikes. I hope this wasn't you or I'd really worry about you.

Send in the clowns.

Woot! And just in time for the rally! Doug Bernier has entered the game!

Yeah metric has never caught on in the US, what's with that SABRMETRIC community anyway? You'd think they might find a use for it.

what conversion is that?

Some people call me Maurice.

Um, Morneau went 4 for 5 tonight and scored 2 runs.

 

Looking now to see how Span did.

Send in the clowns.

 

what conversion is that?

It's an exception to the standard english-to-metric conversion rule, which is to "double it, and add 30".
