I see Correia is pitching to impact leaving the ball up tonight.
Adam Dunn = Dave Kingman
Career wise, yeah.
This year, he's more late-career Rob Deer.
Dr. Fear: Your white blood count is somewhat low. Want to get it checked on?
Me: OK.
Dr. Paz: Let's do a test.
Me. OK.
Today:
Wendy: Hang in there (me half-naked, she sticks a needle into my pelvis bone to draw marrow. Pain!!)!
what's up with that, NBB?
yeah, what he said.
Just tests.
Hey, wait, what day is it?
Friday
Well that's a relief, i thought i missed another game log.
It's not Thursday.
Time for our own back-to-backs
Wow, Dunn really is the king of strike outs.
also not a double
Bert said he couldn't remember any particular batter he owned. That seems...odd. Especially for a guy who likes to boast.
So I checked. He owned plenty, but most impressively, he owned Robin Yount.
114 plate appearances, and Yount had a slash line of 182/211/300
oh my goodness. safe!!!!!!!
but he was totally out
was he? i didn't see any contact on the first swipe, and then he was whining instead of tagging on the 2nd effort.
he made contact on the 2nd swipe. The third swipe missed (when Morneau hit the plate) but he had already nipped his shoulder
ahh. oh, well. that's why you make sure you get the tag.
Anyone hear the White Sox feed on that one?
hawk said it was a good call, actually. no initial indignation even.
I think Joe Vavra is kind of nuts sending Morneau all these times, yet Mornaeu keeps scoring the runs. its odd
Fielder pauses for the split second from shock.
tough night for the umps. oof
Dick Bremer making a Butch Huskey reference melts my heart,
hey, the play is (sort of ) on YouTube

Are those the gawd-awful "Turn Ahead The Clock" jerseys or whatever they were called?
yep.
I thought the Twins looked pretty good
What is that? Who are they playing?
I was familiar with these.
Those are 1999. Huskey was a Twin in 2000.
I have never ever heard of this.
Wait, the batter has the same jersey as Chewbacca. That means this is from 1999. The red jerseys are for the Mariners.
I'm all straightened out now.
In the future, it'll be real hard to separate home and road teams.
Willingham is always a risk to run. Good job keeping him on second.
Plouffer!
DODGEBALL OUT!
sighhhhh
It it is almost like putting KC out there for another inning was a bad idea.
my first thought at the top of the 8th: why is correia still in there?
"Ditto."
Gardy uses the "hit the wall hard" method of determining when the starter should come out.
I had no problem with it. Bullpen has been overused of late. Correia hadn't given up anything since the second inning. He was under 100 pitches. Bottom of the order coming up. Game tied instead of with a lead.
Good thing to let Correia pitch to those two batters, Ron. Your run of stellar bullpen management continues.
Uh, bullpen?
Duensing trying to snap Morneau's arm.
These last two innings are a lot slower than the first 7 it seems
I don't understand the outcome of this game. Two of the White Sox runs came on solo homers. Everyone knows that solo homers don't hurt you. Therefore, the score should've been 2-2, and the game should've gone to extra innings. I assume the Twins have protested on that basis. Pending the outcome of the protest, however, we'll just have to settle for 144-18.
Viele danke, Herr Korn.
Or, as my Down Syndrome uncle used to say, "Donkey machine."
double play yay.
Joe Mauer hit. rinse, repeat.
fisted!
not a double
Willingdue.
jeepers, that was a blast.
Holy crap - flush this feller.
Hey, at least it wasn't
afirst inning run[s]!sinker not sinking. oof
ok, it was a slider not sliding.
I see Beau is being mean.
I see Correia is
