We seem to have mid 60-70s highs around here for awhile. That seems pretty perfect to me.

I got a kick out of this.
It’s clear how much fun the #MNTwins are having in a very loose clubhouse right now, and there were new additions today: vuvuzelas and an actual gong sitting on a table in the clubhouse.
I kid you not, Max Kepler briefly turned into a gong coach during our postgame interview. pic.twitter.com/1ztWtzb5CY
Higher BA currently: Bux or Sanchez?
A: yeah, me neither
There should be a TV show that's just all about banging a gong for some reason or another. But I have not idea what you'd call it.
Huh, turns out Luis Arraez qualified for the leaderboards last night after all. He's tied for third in AL batting (.349) and in second place in OBP (.454) behind Taylor Ward, who also leads the league in BA.
He qualifies on sites that add out ABs. The 4ltr isn't showing him.
I got that from B-R, so true. But right now on MLB.com they have Arraez ranked first in the AL in OBP and tied for second with J.D. Martinez for BA, so he must qualify now or he wouldn't be there, and it's Ward who doesn't qualify.
Looks like the Twins have the highest team OBP in the league with Arraez raising the curve. 4th in batting and OPS, 5th in slugging. On the pitching side the Twins are 3rd in runs allowed, 4th in earned runs, 5th in ERA, and 5th in strikeouts.
In Canada kids just go to school. No armed anybody.
It works out just fine. We don`t have a firearms obsessed culture, of course, which I`m sure helps.

One of my side hobbies: Songs that End with a Gong
Know of any others?
Very good!
If I recall, there's a (backwards) gong at the beginning too. Sounds like it's around 0:23.

This country is absolutely fucked up.
No way to prevent this says only nation where this regularly happens.
This past experience sure doesn't point to that conclusion.
The proposed solution happened at Uvalde and well, we can see how well that worked out.
that narrative is truly horrifying.
