I am so excited to spend the morning staining my deck. What could be more fun?

Game 34 Twins at Angels
Last night I fell asleep with the game tied, so I refuse to acknowledge that loss.
Lance Lynn will try to build on a strong start last time around. Maybe he can keep Ian Kinsler in the ballpark.
FMD 5/11/18: The Last Song You’ll Ever/Never Hear
So say you were dying, in as nice a way as possible, and you could kind of pick any song to fade out to... what song would you pick?
And, for that matter, what song would you want them to carry you out to/play at the cemetery/as your ashes are spread/etc.? You'll not hear that one, but others will associate it with you. What would pick?
And, yeah, I suppose I did a funeral music topic once upon a time, but hopefully this is a distinct enough topic: not just end-of-life songs, but truly last songs.
Minor Details: Games of May 10
It's time for Nick Gordon to move up. An excellent game for Randy LeBlanc. Fort Myers again blows a big lead. It's a MoisesGomezpalooza in the Kernels game!

I’ve had this slightly declining interest in baseball over the last year or so. I don’t want this to happen. Help.

Game 33 Twins at Anaheim
*** No FSN, National TV game FS1 ***
Happy Byron Buxton Day! He off the DL and back in the lineup which means Robbie Grossman exits the OF woo wooo! Is there a Statcast breakdown on OFers arms? Because it sure seems like Grossman has a noodle arm out there.
Also Happy Berrios Day........
HAPPY BUXTERRIOS DAY!
All this excitement has to result in a win for our favorite baseballers (although the Angles are no slouch of team with 22 wins so far this year)
