Well, game one was plenty entertaining. Can game two live up to it. Can the Twins one up it by actually coming away with the victory?
We shall see.

I know they need flexibility for the weather, but is there really a need for a gap in the each of the first three series? You can't just stick that open day at the end of the series?

There have been two players in the majors named Jeff Pfeffer. They were brothers. "Big Jeff" Pfeffer was actually Francis Xavier Pfeffer. Plain old Jeff Pfeffer was actually Edward Joseph Pfeffer. "Big Jeff" was 6'1", 185 pounds. Plain old Jeff was 6'3", 210.
Brick Owens was a longtime major league umpire. His first name was Clarence. He got the nickname "Brick" after being hit by one while umpiring a game in Pittsburg, Kansas early in his career.
Mule Suttles is sometimes credited as the all-time Negro Leagues home run leader with 237. He swung a fifty-ounce bat.
One of the top second basemen in the history of the Mexican League, Moises Camacho played there from 1951-1975. He was known as the Rogers Hornsby of Mexico.
I made a random 10 and saw there was nowhere to put it, so... hi!
I saw Hot Snakes on the 16th after waiting to see them 14 years. They were one of the bands I figured I'd never have a chance to see live, a shocking number of which I've actually had a chance to see. I think the two left on my list are the pAper chAse (extremely unlikely) and Butthole Surfers (mayyyybe). Do you have any artists like this on your list still? Drop your lists.
I did a baseball Fanduel contest yesterday, because why not?
As good as I am at the basketball stuff, I had a truly putrid maiden voyage with this. As of this writing I'm in 95th of 100 and am in no danger of winning money.
Love me some EMA, and not just because she follows me on IG for some reason.

Finishing at .500 would not be considered a success this year, would it? With that being the case, I wonder if we get 424 comments today?
