Things to think about: 0: Thinking. What is it? Are you doing it now? Good for you! It's important. "It seperates us from people who like "Love Song" (great book, dumb title)"* Alas, i like to just pop references in lieu of thinking too often. And i apologize if today is no different. 0: Counting. Some things do, some things don't. Then there is the counter thought: does a counter count? I don't know. Today i'm only a Duke. 1: "I want my Johnson."** This is Wes's final game, right? I will sure miss him. If anyone feels like writing up an homage or other tribute to his wokr here, go for it. 2: Alternating Currently. It seems we win a game. Then they win a game. While it is most considerate of the two teams to take turns, i am torn. Break the cycle. Whether that means going to Direct Current, or 3 phase, i am not wise enough to say.Just not today, as it is our turn. 5*****: Baselines, and the importance of staying in them. Yes it can get monotonous (like Pachabel's Canon) but modern baselines tend to be a bit more lively. Twinians: 0. Chris Archer (R) P 1. Luis Arraez (L) 2B 2. Byron Buxton (R) DH 3. Carlos Correa (R) SS 4. Max Kepler (L) RF 5. Jose Miranda (R) 1B 6. Alex Kirilloff (L) LF 7. Gary Sanchez (R) C 8. Gio Urshela (R) 3B 9. Gilberto Celestino (R) CF Guards: 0. Shane Bieber (R) P 1. Steven Kwan (L) LF 2. Amed Rosario (R) SS 3. Jose Ramirez (S) 3B 4. Josh Naylor (L) DH 5. Owen Miller (R) 1B 6. Andres Gimenez (L) 2B 7. Oscar Gonzalez (R) RF 8. Sandy Leon (S) C 9. Myles Straw (R) CF *- Fisher King **- Big Lebowski (bowdlerized, perhaps) ***** implicitely Holy Grail. which means i probably should have quoted Brian to begin with. Does that mean i should start over? But the game is almost upon us. Cheif would be sad already that it isn't up 2 hours early.... Oh well.

I thought we got Pagan for like, 3 years. (I suppose that may not make you feel any better)

Next time, i suggest third out first, then winning run.

We coulda gotten one more out somehow, i'm sure...

Wait, were they all cribbing off someone else? Meh, still splendid.

I assume his eyes were wide open. But details shmetails.

I bet that was done deliberately.

With his glove. After running a fair bit. And perhaps putting his hand on the netting so as it wouldn't interfere?

Well um... Kirilloff got moved to 1st.

Game Thread: Twins of Minnesota @ Guardians of Ohio, 6/29/22, 6:10PM CDT (4:10PM PDT)
He has not had much success. But here's to hoping he can learn. Wouldn't it be something on his days off to be able to insert him like an inverse closer?

Game Thread: Twins of Minnesota @ Guardians of Ohio, 6/29/22, 6:10PM CDT (4:10PM PDT)
Now there are 3 out. I had hoped he could beat the throw. But perhaps that was asking too much.

I think there are 2 out.

I don't know. Larnach has been known to make a throw... from time to time.

C'mon, triple time, Kirilloff!!! Oh well. Guess not. I type too slow.

Buxton is on base! I'd like to see Cleveland just try to throw him out...
