Mauer double. yay
You meant "yawn", right?
oooo, I hope Deduno has that filthy curveball workin all game
Is there a Deduno "K" image? If he keeps pitching like this, we're going to need some.

Looking at fantasy baseball stuff, and came across this in the Yahoo! player's notes for Yasmani Grandal:
Grandal's bat had been limp since he was activated from a 50-game suspension for testing positive for elevated levels of testosterone.
Anytime a writer can slip in an ED reference, you gotta do it, right?
YDNROTC!!!
So Mauer is on track to break the Twins doubles records, but have you checked how Machado's stats stack up to the league??
on pace for something like 70 doubles.
Isn't Machado also leading the league in sac bunts? (I think I saw that somewhere on the Web)
not that I see
Maybe he had the most sac bunts of anyone on the Orioles, or maybe I'm just making stuff up. The latter is probably more likely.
You are right about him being the O's team leader

Thanks Mags! It's nice to know people that know how to do chart-type things.
Blacked out on my birthday 🙁
Yeah, that's happened to me before
BTDT.
My birthday is occasionally the last day of the season. Fun stuff.
only one out -- I can't figure out why they're not having Dozier bunt Carroll over to third!
Hmm...what just happened?
Sac fly to Dozier.
wait, what was the ruling on that Dozier play?
sac fly, and FSN only showed 1 replay, but it looked like 3Bdude took off before the catch
I really dont get how Bert gets a 'sh' sound out of the 'z' in Kazmir
maybe at this point he is just trolling the attentive listeners
Maybe he's got Zeppelin on the brain...

SEND HIM!!!!!!!
ok, time for a rally inning
Dozier? Again?
KILLDOZED
Doz'd!
I think Dozier's been pinching some mojo from Willingham and Morneau.
Looks like ditching C*ss*ndr* was the best thing to happen to Brian.
I have to go back and read all the DeVries Live Journals. I love that schtick.
I thought Plouffe! had a donger there.
Looks like the satellite feed has taken a break.
Lucky you.
Off to listen to the kids blow their horns. Jazz night in the ol' town tonight.
This team is very annoying to me.
Ditto.

This is the inning of our discontent.
Gladden saying "if the game is blown open here, Gardy might go to Thielbar to save Duensing for the next couple of games." Maybe he should've gone to someone other than Duensing in a situation where the game is on the line. He isn't someone who needs to be "saved" for crucial situations. Ugh.
He also could have saved Roenicke for later.
I mean, when you get one run and strike out 7 times against Scott Kazmir in 2013 you don't deserve to win. That being said, watching Duensing get trotted out there for these crucial situations all the time is going to give me an ulcer.
coming into the game, Duensing in 'high leverage' situations had a .302 batting average (13/43) and a 30% inherited runners scored (8/27)
That sounds too much like math for the Twins to believe it.
but then again, as someone (I cant remember, sorry) pointed out, you cant trot Burton/Perkins to put out every fire that comes up.
Cashmere is good. It's fine in texture, strong, light, and soft. Garments made from it provide excellent insulation. A wool or textile product may not be labeled as containing cashmere unless such wool product is the fine (dehaired) undercoat fibers produced by a cashmere goat (Capra hircus laniger); the average diameter of the fiber of such wool product does not exceed 19 microns; and such wool product does not contain more than 3 percent (by weight) of cashmere fibers with average diameters that exceed 30 microns. The average fiber diameter may be subject to a coefficient of variation around the mean that shall not exceed 24 percent. And we'll just have to settle for 125-37!
