Well, it's gotten that bad, eh? T____.
On the grill: Pizza done two ways. First is Feta and fresh mozzarella with fire roasted green chili. Round two is an olive oil, roasted garlic, poblano and onion delight with sharp tillamook cheddar. Paired with several Torpedoes.
mmmm. Grilled, or baked in teh Oven?
grilled.
What are going to nickname this outfield once it's reached legendary status? ReReBe? BenBensKo?
re-on-ko
Bebe Rebozo
There's a blast from the past.
If one of them robs a Sock of a donger, they can shout back to the infield, "I AM
NOTA CROOK!"That's catchier than "read my lips: no more homers."
Tear down that wall, Mr Mauer!
The only thing we have to fear is Tolbert himself.
I assume we have not crossed into the forbidden area with this bit of silliness.
Ask not what your team can do for you. Ask what ii can do for your team.
No doubles defense. If we can't hit them, neither will you.
Sold to the man with the bronze gravatar!
What a bummer to leave the beautiful simplicity of The Left Banke's complete recordings to watch a Twins game. Let's surprise me, Rochester.
Just walk away from the game.
Okay, but if this outfield starts followin' me back home...
I am excited about the Joe Benson Era. It's about time we had a non-p*ssy Joe on this team.
If Joe wasn't such a pussy, he would've kept that ball fair.
"nearly a home run" is not a home run, sadly.
I see that malingerer Cuddii isn't in there again.
Send him to Colorado!
Major league strikeout for Benson. He's got that part down.
Walking Butera is like ....
... a day without sunshine?
If he weren't such a p*ssy, he'd charge the mound.
bases loaded, Juicy up. That means a hit, right?
Money.
He's now 8-15 with 15 RBIs with the bases loaded on the season.
Orange you glad he's playing tonight?
If the rest of the team would just juice the bases for him more often...
I'm gonna claim this as my doing. It was 0-0 when I walked in the door about 10-15 minutes ago.
I'm choosing now as a good time to leave. I won't have to listen to any give-back runs!
I'm following you out the door. Bring it home, boys.
Runs ? I must be in the wrong game log.
I think Danks is just as surprised as you are.
Guess who just agreed to accompany Sheenie to a sneak preview of The Way? This guy! Guess who has no interest in the movie at all but can't pass up the opportunity because both Martin Sheen and Emilio are scheduled to be there? This guy! Emilio. The Mighty Duck Man, I swear to God.
If Charlie were there you would be WINNING!
Twins baseball!
They're awarding Hughes a stolen base?! That's rich.
OK, where exactly did Konerko throw that ball to?
Right over the bag.
Directly over the base, it looked like. Vizquel and Ramirez couldn't decide who was covering.
Should be caught stealing.
Okay that was worth seeing
Wow, Gardy was really excited on that play
Yup, I still dislike Capps.
Capps: 0.6 rWAR
Ramos: 2.2 rWAR
That's not helping, but thanks for illustrating my point.
Think I'll watch NOVA "Engineering Ground Zero" and leave Gameday in the background tonight.
How do I hate that bunt? Let me count the ways.
Mauer being booed! Actually, they are booing the intentional walk.
Not that anyone was paying attention, but Mauer was booed in his final AB Tuesday.
Not hang on a minute, were people booing Joe, or were they booing Axelrod for intentionally walking him? When in doubt, I always assume the hometown crowd is booing the Sox player.
I certainly interpreted it as booing the walk rather than Mauer as well.
I was unclear in what I was saying. On Tuesday, when Mauer was facing Thornton in the 8th inning with Plouffe on 1st, Mauer was booed when he struck out on a really terrible pitch (slider low). He was fooled and way out ahead of it, and he was booed as he limped back to the dugout. It wasn't a Capps boo, but it was a boo, none the less.
I was pretty annoyed at it, and my wife was quite peeved at the fans (and at the FO for letting him play when he was clearly really hurting).
I really hope he's shut down soon so he can heal and come back next year healthy and ready to go.
The crowd should have just collectively tipped their hats.
not the bat's fault Alex
The second bat of the night felled by crappy White Sox strikeouts. Poopzynski had the first one.
Just popped in to say I really enjoyed that.
A bona fide save situation. Been awhile since I've seen one of these.
It IS nice seeing Nathan in a save situation again. But you're right -- it's nice seeing ANY save situation for the Twins.
Filthy.
Commence puppies with festive destruction.
This is screwing up The Race to the Bottom
Oops, it's a race to see who can post about it last...
I think the Twins were motivated by our race to the bottom.
And with that the Twins tie the season series with the White Sox 9-9.
It's refreshing to see even in the worst of seasons the South Siders can't win.
Twins haven't blown a save in a loss since Capps' last game as closer on July 15. Not that they've had many save opps since.
4-for-4!
This is easily the most depressing thing I've read about the team recently.
