2022 Game Log 161 – Twins at White Sox
Game 161, the season is mercifully coming to an end. Except for a 6 week period or so in April-May, this season has been pretty disappointing. Here's some of my notable disappointments.
1. The inability to develop a bullpen.
2. Rocco being super concerned about pitchers going through the line up a 3rd time but replacing the starter with a reliever who can't get through the line up the first time.
3. Carlos Correa having a meh season when the Twins were competing and going lights out when they were out of it.
4. Lots of young good hitters who don't seem to have a natural place in the field
5. Trading for pitchers who are hurt
6. Poor execution on the basepaths
7. Poor execution with men on base
First Pitch at 7:10 from the Southside.
Twins Log 154 – White Sox and Twins
Finally, we've circled this week since the schedule came out over the winter. Six of the last nine games against the White Sox to determine who would be the AL Central Division champs. These two teams have been eying each other all year long and finally it's put up or shut up time with the winner off to the playoffs. There is nothing more thrilling that play-off like baseball in September.
Bailey Ober for the Twins and old friend Lance Lynn for the Whities.
First pitch at 6:40 but buckle in, these next games are going to be epic.
Patti Smith – Gloria
No words for this.
Archers of Loaf – Harnessed in Slum
This song is so muscular and this live version perfectly captures its essence.
The Wrens – Hopeless
The Wrens had one amazing album in 2003 (The Meadowlands) and then kinda faded away. A couple members are now in a band called Aeon and they play a bunch of The Wrens songs. This is an ultimate kiss-off song and I love kiss-off songs.
