the gal I was with wanted to ride it and I had promised my daughter I would go with her. Fortunately, I'm now "aged out" of riding such contraptions.

Road that thing twice on the same day. It wasn't better the second time around, strangely enough.

Here, let me loan you this image:

That was cool, watching Gibson go all Jack Morris on the Red Sox.

I didn't have a heart condition before the game started.....

Okay, who here expected the Twins would get swept by KC, then sweep the Jays, and then take the first game against the Red Sox behind Kyle Gibson who went 8 innings and threw, what, 120 pitches?

This is the kind of game that, when people tell me, "baseball is boring," I just shake my head. That was something else.

FRE wasn't on and he knew it. But, he got the job done in the end.

saw that one coming.

Yes.

Blyleven is probably smiling from ear to ear right now. That was incredible, Mr. Gibson! And, kudos to you, Mr. Molitor, for letting Mr. Gibson go out for the 8th.

Could have reached back into Roman mythology and used a "Janus" reference I suppose.

Bonus points for "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" reference.

Yes, but what does Magic 8 ball say?

And the Twins sweep a team, on the road, that has given them fits for the better part of a decade. Another reason why baseball is such a great sport.

Yeah, my cousins were out visiting and they said I-35 looks like war zone. It also sounds like it's a commuting nightmare.

Eh, if it wasn't them, it would have been someone else.

Nope, not at all.

I'll hazard a guess here: the third out?

Ah, the old "let 'em think they've got the game in the bag when the Twins have 2 outs" strategy. Works every time.

good job, Mr. Grossman! I never doubted you for a moment!

Good job, Mr. Garver! I never doubted you for a moment.

I thought he still had arbitration years left. Drat. Okay, thanks for the information.
