Howdy, Citizens. This has been sitting in drafts since June 10th, and I'm very work-averse at the moment, so I'm gonna finish this up. My pickle juice brined Chicken Fingers await. Continue reading Brined and Breaded Chicken Fingers

Read JeffA's recap from the last game. It serves as a better intro than I can come up with. Though I heard Sano was taking grounders at third...
Kennys Vargas and Pat Dean lift the Red Wings. Brett Lee throws a seven-inning complete game in a Lookouts sweep. T. J. White has a big day in a Kernels' win. Brad Hartong leads the E-Twins to a split.

Dots Miller’s given name was John. He got the nickname “Dots” because when he first came up, a sportswriter asked teammate Honus Wagner who the new guy was. Wagner, in his thick German accent, said, “Dot’s Miller.”
Hugh Mulcahy has one of the worst nicknames in the history of baseball. In four seasons as a starting pitcher for the Phillies, he twice led the league in losses. He went 45-89 for his career, leading to the nickname “Losing Pitcher Mulcahy”.
The brother of Phil Roof, Paul Roof was a pitcher for four seasons in the Braves’ system, never going higher than Class A.
