West coast baseball for a short spell. The beginning of this game will compete with the Wild game so make sure you give your thumb a warm up before you furiously flip back and forth between the two games.
On paper, this is a good pitching matchup. Phil Hughes throws for the Twins, King Felix for Seattle. I hope the Twins win 2 out of 3 this weekend.
More like game 3, less like game 4 please.
I'm nervous about this one.

I don't worry about overplaying the As and Bs on my iPod because when I'm searching for something and I don't know what, I shuffle, and then "Browse Artist" (or "Browse Album" if a compilation).
Nothing's more disappointing than saying "Yes, that's who I want to listen to for the rest of the day!" only to realize that I'd just played the only song from that artist that I currently have on my iPod. That happened a few weeks ago with Stars of the Lid.
If I have a bit of an idea what I want to listen to, I shuffle just on my predefined broad genres. (I do wish there was a way to add artist/album/genre to a shuffle without going through the "on-the-go". Did you know that you can't put more than 999 tracks into on-the-go?)
Not much offense for the Lookouts. Chih-Wei Hu pitched really well for the Miracle. Stephen Gonsalves pitched even better for the Kernels.

Twelve years of not smoking for this cat. Cravings are long gone, and it doesn't even seem like I was the guy who did it for nine years; it kind of feels like a long, meandering movie I saw.
It's Friday. Just try and stop me.

A big comeback for the Red Wings. A not awful, but not good day for Jose Berrios. Not much offense for the Miracle. A second big day for Trey Vavra. Randy LeBlanc strikes out four in one inning.
