1. TK on FSNorth today. Woohoo!

2. Who's the emergency catcher these days? Escobar sticks in my mind, but I can't see where he's ever caught before (although I see he did pitch two games in the Venezuelan Summer League). It used to be Morneau (who caught 22 games of rookie ball in 2000), but with his concussion problems I can't believe they'd do that. Willingham caught 180 games in the minors and 15 in the majors, but I really can't believe they'd do that, either.

   1. I believe its Escobar

3. Worley's WHIP coming into this game: 1.949

   so basically, he is allowing 2 batters to reach per inning. oof

   1. His home WHIP is just shy of 0.5 baserunners/inning higher than on the road this year (2.192 [H] vs. 1.754 [A])

   2. Right on track in the first inning.

      1. With great weakness comes great regret-ability. -MadTV

4. whoopsee

5. GOSO?

6. One run? Two innings? ERA goes down...

   1. On pace for a QS

   2. it was an unearned run, so the ERA is down a lot!

7. 6 outs, 5 strikeouts.

8. An actual good Twitter poll for the evening. It's been far too long since I've seen "The Sandlot", but I think I'm on #TeamHam

   

   1. where is the #teampeffercorn option?

9. there goes the no hitter!

10. Yes, bunt Plouffe more into scoring position.

19. Is it okay to call this guy B-holz?

    1. Book wood!

       1. You put book wood together with B-holz and you get...

          1. Double plays?

20. Slowey with six runs in three innings against the D'backs tonight.

    1. Mags may have made the right choice in not taking my offers of him for Joe Mauer in Half Baked Craf.

21. TK = no more muting.

22. SEND HIM!!!!!

23. Found this while driving around today. File this for future use.

    

    1. I go past that about 2x a week and never made the connection

       1. 5 tool player!

          1. Winner, winner! Chicken dinner!

24. goodness, Willingham is in a funk lately.

25. We miss Joe Mauer.

26. third time through the lineup *waits for hitting the wall hard*

    1. brought in Dunce to hit the wall for him

27. sigh

28. Awesome, I got here just in time.

    1. And willed it to not being as bad as it could have been.

29. Maybe we should move Florimon to catcher to shorten his career.

    1. I really enjoy this joke.

30. that was a heck of a throw by Hicks, almost getting Drew

31. all right, time to win this game

32. I've got a real un-New Guy feeling about this game.

33. Be nice for a 1-run game to go our way for once.

34. These Sheboygan Sausage ads on the radio just make me think of how excited I am for Wilfred to come back.

    1. I missed all of season 2. I need to catch up.

35. Free baseball. hurray.

    1. I was just thinking how sad it is I can't enjoy free baseball tonight since I'm the early shift tomorrow.

       1. This isn't going to end well so you shouldn't feel too bad.

36. somebody set the degree of difficulty knob to 13

37. Time for a Floribomb

38. The Twins were ahead as long as TK was in the booth. Thus, this is either TK's fault for leaving early or FSN's fault for not keeping him there for nine innings. At any rate, I guess we'll just have to settle for 142-20!
