And so goes Tommy Ramone, last of the original Ramones. They played fast and I suppose they lived faster.

Tommy Ramone and Charlie Haden die on the same day. That would have made one hell of an interesting rhythm section.
I mentioned Haden & Bela Fleck before, but it was Charlie Haden & Pat Metheny from the Missouri Skies duet that I was mis-remembering

Yohan Pino rewarded for his win by being sent back down. Boo-urns.
I suspect it's only temporary. They sent him out to make room for Kris Johnson, who was needed to pitch last night. With the all-star break coming up, it'll be a while before they need a fifth or even a fourth starter again, so it was an easy move to make. I'd be surprised if Pino isn't back with the Twins shortly after the all-star break.
also, Hamilton is holding his on at the plate: .285/.318/.424/.742 OPS+ 105. 37 steals, 14 caughts.
The one time it pays to slide into first.
Yeah, but it's the leap preceding the slide that's the best part.
I watched that for a very long time this morning. I even showed the gif to my wife, and I have to be pretty blown away by a baseball thing to bother showing her.
I also showed my wife, and she was impressed. That says something.
My man-crush is further reinforced and justified.
I'm sure the engineer thought he was just recording one song, over and over.
Great. I'm the only one who picked Brazil in 3rd place game meaning I could be in first going into the final and Brazil finds themselves down 0-1 in 3rd minute.
I still like my chances however.

Never mind.
One last game. Mags either needs to go for the underdog or the exact score.
Was walking through the living room while Mrs. Runner and Runner daughter were watching So You Think You Can Dance? and noticed the judges were wearing baseball jerseys in honor of the AS Game (on FOX of course). This caught my eye:

Let's just induct Billy Hamilton (2) now.
