I’m a visitor here, just like the French missionaries and explorers that were coming here as early as the late 1600s to trade with the Native Americans.

4 strikeouts is the answer.
I got a hearty chuckle out of "I'm much better at getting high than low."
His Trout home run call should land him in Cooperstown.
So the double play Choo grounded into last night was just the 5th of his career - out of 6,869 plate appearances. To me that's an amazing stat. I've seen guys GIDP that many times in a couple of weeks. Albert Pujols has done it 390 times. Joe Mauer did it 208 times in his career.
That ranks up there with Votto's pop-ups.
It was just his 5th of the year.
99th of his career
Ah, that makes much more sense. I must have misheard Dick on the broadcast or else he didn't state it very clearly. Should have double checked BBR.com, though. Thanks.
Year and career rhyme and Roy was probably talking over him
Also, I'm getting old.
I resemble that comment. Dealt with upper back pain all week. Finally felt good yesterday morning, then blew the lower back over lunch yesterday. Big doses of meds and ice last night and this morning and still an 8 on the pain scale. Of course it is a day where I have a huge catering gig. Sitting at my desk sneaking in a sammich and a round of ice before I go wreck it some more. And... tomorrow I move the youngest up to UMDuluth. 7 hours in the car. Ouch!
I've been crunching on the family room remodel, and I am not used to manual labor. The worst was sheetrocking the space under the stairs that I'm turning into a Harry Potter style dog cupboard. It was like working a 3D puzzle from the inside out.
Tonight I will go with Kepler and Rosario.
Yankees beat the Indians 6-5. The Twins have a chance to pick up a game tonight, and will do no worse than to maintain the status quo.
And I have Rosario tonight.

Trifectas are hard to pull off, but the payday is real nice when you do.
if you feel it, let it ride, i say.

Marwin and Eddie were still going steady
In the summer of 2019
When they decided their barrage continue
Well past July
Everyone said they were through though
"Marwin you know that you're much too banjo
And Eddie could never rake with that outside strike."
Oh, but there we were waving Marwin's and Eddie's goodbye
