Game 21: Reds at Twins.
Yesterday, I checked in on the game and it was 3-0 and I though "Oh, Twins got this" HAHAHAHAH boy, am I a sucker or what!
Interleague battle tonight as the Red come to town. They have already fired their manager and really haven't picked up too many wins since (3-15 under Bryan Price, 2-5 under Jim Riggleman)
I was really hoping Billy Hamilton would turn out to be a good player, but I would say he is a bust. Fast guy, cant get on base. Thats a shame.
Losing streaks stink, so lets get a win tonight!

A good day for Jared Foster leads the Miracle. A bad debut for Bailey Ober.
Al Jarreau: Take Five
still probably my favorite song of all time. This is a distinctly different take on it.
FMD 4/27/2018: Tales of Brave Ulysses
Philo said I was supposed to do an FMD as part of bS Week. Huh. I had no idea.
Ulysses S. Grant was born Hiram Ulysses Grant on this date in 1822. Well, he certainly turned out to be the Cream of the crop. I'm sure that can inspire someone's lists, so drop one.
