Oh yeah, i think so... Would like to have gotten him in, but i'm just greedy that way.

I really hope there's a bottom of the 9th, even if someone else gets the 3 outs.

Yeah, i know. I'll shoulder the blame of driving it home, but credit twinsnorth49 for the original thought.

I thought the name was meant to be ironic, appealing to cheap hipsters. Isn't their management strategy trade anyone away due for a rays?

Rosario goes yard. 7-11 (or doubles?)

"That's the one thing there's just too little of..." Sorry. It sounded like lyrics, what could i do?

I dub him the Esco Baron. And his bat shall dive out of the sun (or bright light) on unsuspecting balls, and fell them into the outfield. Especially Snoopy's dog house. Oh, and Buxton wasn't bad neither. 10-6 half way through 5, ye cbu-ers.

Oh yeah. Graham, it is goose egg time...

Middle of 4th, 7-5 Twins lead. CBU.

Redemption for Dozier. Did he take a stolen base from Buxton? We shall never know...

I think Santana is doing the Twins a favor, by not letting us get complacent. When we go toe to toe with the Blue Jays or Yankees (which we have already lulled into a false sense of security) we wanna be ready to play all 9 innings. If we coasted through this on the strength of that Sano dinger, would we be in shape?'

Would we get a mini Sano too?

Good so far... I blame Dozier for Sano not getting a slam.

Good to hear! Hope he plays his heart out, and lifts them National parks up. For them, he can be the bus driver.

But i think the bus is towing a band wagon. Will that hurt Mr. Dave? I'm also hoping Mr. Dave won't slow either the bus or the band wagon down too much. I guess i feel the need for speed. Well, velocity rather. That's harder to make rhyme...

Thanks for the link! Yup, it's the day for banana splits and whiskey sours to kiss and make up. (I think they got angry because they both chose the same day and didn't want to share) Someone tell me how it ends... (Wait a moment. Can't kissing ruin make up?) Following the link, it is also National Park Service founding day, or something like that. But next year will be the real deal, as it is their centennial. I'm gonna probably try and make up for all my laziness, stuff like paying bills and vacuuming and sweeping, and putting toys away...

I didn't realize it until i looked at a calendar yesterday, but i guess i'm celebrating my 15,000th today... I'm still wondering... how? Any recommendations for celebrating would not be taken amiss.

So, is that what a sigh of relief feels like?

Escobar with the wheels!

That indeed is what matters. Another inning, another chance swipe the lead...

Ah, the one that got away. That RBI was "this big!" (pointing at Sano...)

Worth it so far, eh?

As does this game thread, coincidentally. (At 20 posts per page)

This game goes to 11.

I wouldn't complain.
