I feel like funkin' it up.
Minor Details: Game of 9/6
Lots of hits and walks, but only one Red Wings run. It's a must-win game tonight.
September 7, 2013: Little Things
Last night my wife and I took the girls to see Wreck-It Ralph at the Goodyear Ballpark, where they show a free kids' movie once a month. This is some of the most fun the four of us have ever had together and it costs nothing.

It appears that no major league players with connections to the Minnesota Twins were born on this day, although there are some who would argue there should have been.

Battle of the former Mets tonight.
The Twins have four wins to win to match last year's total. With 24 games remaining, at their current pace they are projected to finish with 71 wins. The remaining schedule will make getting to 70 wins difficult. Three games against the Jays, a makeup game against the Angels, and three more against the White Sox. The other 17 games are against the A's (7), Rays (3), Tigers (3), and Indians (4).
Minor Details: Games of 9/5
The Red Wings lose on unearned runs. The Kernels are swept out of the playoffs.

Friday Music Day: September 6, 2013.
Despite how put off I was by the radio edit of "The Red Wing", so far I'm less disappointed with the F--- Buttons' Slow Focus than I thought I'd be.
