And they pinch hit for Milone. Makes sense of course, but now other pitchers have to own Mil, besides Milone...

Mauer beats the throw home to complete the sac fly! 1-0 Twins, both other runners advance.

Wheels Plouffe! First steal.

Dribbler to center, runners at the corners. Not as sure a thing, but i'll take the lack of an out...

Yes. So... One who'd know something about Holy Carp?

Some do confuse it with efficiency... Certainly the two are not unrelated.

Well played sir. I hope the Twins do just as good. Er, well, i mean. Wait, no i mean both.

Game almost here... Too lazy to sort out what i think of the Gomez Hardy trade... Too lazy to prepare real foods of the type listed here (though sorely tempted not to be quite that lazy) But not too lazy to turn on the game! (Nor to contribute a wee bit to the game thread)

My apologies. It is i who failed to pick up on a reference. I'm not familiar with helmart and would not mind being enlightened, if there is further insight to provided by this parody. Anyway, shall be checkin' ye olde minor league scores, and hopefully getting a good night's sleep so i won't miss any of tomorrow's game.

Ya know, i've never gone... It's an 80's movie reference, perhaps obscure? Maybe not, as most people have probably heard of Weird Al...

This was a good post to end up taking a nap on... I woke up for the second homer, but was too lazy to find an image of another food service utensil. Guess it's time to go to spatula city again...

I got a pen and paper, then i realized i don't know how to draw a walk neither... But i'm glad we came out on top. Coulda had a little more drama from Perkins, just to know he's still sharp. But not a big deal. I'm sure i'm in the minority there.

Hunter is going for the rest of the cutlery too...

Brevity is sole o' wit.

Dozier with some capital D. (A glove scoop to Mauer to get a speeding shortstop)

Ah, Escobar tries to get the ball to Riverbrian! 3-1 CBU (and still none out in the inning)

Herrmann is hanging tough, and earns a walk. I don't know if the failed bunt attempt was clever like a fox, or um... yeah. Two on, and none out.

When i saw the abbreviation for "fixed that for you" i was expecting something like "that's where he was sitting" I hope they let him go down that slide in the outfield! Oh well, looks like they scored off Gibson... We should do something about that.

4th row... Is that where Riverbrian is sitting?

Oh yeah, 0-0 thru 1/3rd of a regulation 9 innings. Drive thru CBU

Gibson made it through the Third inning. Toddler steps?

CBU This game has not seen anyone cross home plate in inning the first.

Oh, why is it called "around the horn?"

I'll try. I just was afraid it'd game learning instead of pre-game... But now i think on it, i suppose there's probably a game tomorrow too.

Shoot. The game has started (w/ a bunt single by Dozier!) Can i still learn?
