This the place with the ivy, right?

And i think i got just enough time to watch one more episode before the game starts...

I know others are as lazy as me and want to just scroll up to see the line up rather than go to all effort of following a link... Us: Us: 0. Rich Hill ( L) P 1. Byron Buxton (R ) CF 2.

You, sir, have a truely devious mind. I could not possibly conceive of such a cunning and absolute vengence upon a vaunted enemy. And yet so perfectly innocent and reasonable. I approve!

Man, i left the game in your hands with a 1-0 lead. My bad...

That's very generous, considering what college tuition is these days.

Okay... I gotta head out within half an hour. Not sure if i'll be able to check in again before the end of the game... I'm leaving the game in good hands, right?

I need to read the opening of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead again...

As expected.

Double play to endthe inning.

Polanco with a walk and stolen base. Alas, that is all we get in the top of the first.

Last... Laugh? Round up? Post?

Aphorism game thread. In the aphore times, when ya couldn't look up the rules on the internet, and compare the bruteforce statistics of when it made sense to bunt, they had to come up with quick and clever ways of remindin' folk what to do. Here are a bunch of useful ones that will help us win... Well now... It seems some Sox fan got into my game thread intro, and mixed a few dubious ones. Can you help me sift through and figure out what is what? Rosario sure would appreciate it. Hit 'em where they ain't. Red sky at dawn, the bunt must be on. Red sky at night, play back and hold tight. Chose wisely, for swinging at the correct pitch may give you immortality, a false pitch will take it from you. Don't make the 3rd out at 3rd. Only you can prevent jinx-fires. Hit the cutoff. nobody, not even the rain, has such small... chance of falling in our outfield. Cover first on anything hit to the left. Er... your left. Swing, batter batter batter. I'm not left handed either. Quoth the umpire... nevermore. Don't swing until ya see the whites of their eyes. Never tell me the odds! You remind me of the babe. Bases are half-full. I don't want a pickle. Run on 3... 2... 1... Contact! Don't cross the streams. Don't throw a hanger on 0-2. Spider always catches the infield fly. Evil, pure and simple from the 8th dimension. Coffee is for closers. Helmets are for lollygaggers. Pay no attention to the man behind the baggy. Play Ball! Twins: 0. Kenta Maeda (R ) P 1. Max Kepler ( L) RF 2. Josh Donaldson (R ) 3B 3. Jorge Polanco ( S ) SS 4. Nelson Cruz (R ) DH 5. Eddie Rosario ( L) LF 6. Miguel Sano (R ) 1B 7. Byron Buxton (R ) CF 8. Marwin Gonzalez ( S ) 2B 9. Ryan Jeffers (R ) C White Sox: 0. Reynaldo Lopez (R ) P 1. Tim Anderson (R ) SS 2. Yasmani Grandal ( S ) C 3. Jose Abreu (R ) 1B 4. Eloy Jimenez (R ) LF 5. Edwin Encarnacion (R ) DH 6. Yoan Moncada ( S ) 3B 7. Luis Robert (R ) CF 8. Jarrod Dyson ( L) RF 9. Nick Madrigal (R ) 2B Did i miss any? Feel free to add your own...

Winnah.

3 more outs... Almost there!

I didn't quite catch that... Mind repeating it so i hear? (i might be a little deaf from the concussion of the Sano at bat)

You mean it wasn't the blistering heat he was hurling?

Alas, no i didn't. Mostly 'cause previous seasons i've mostly not had video. Thanks for pointing it out!

That way he doesn't accidentally pass Rosario...

Buxton! Doesn't have to do anything...

Hmmm... How come the video stream jumps, but never during the commercials?

I bet they can't have a weirder double play than last inning...

Keep it up.

Do you mean to second or to first? He got tagged out by Adrianza chasing him down back towards first.

We got lucky there...
