Search For Tomorrow debuted on this date (today, not today) in 1951
The Red Wings are eliminated. The Lookouts are barely hanging on. A catcher is the winning pitcher for the Kernels. The Miracle and the GCL Twins are rained out.

Bill Armour managed Cleveland from 1902-1904 and Detroit from 1905-1906. He also managed in the minor leagues for several years.
The Twins finally got to 50 wins! It only took 5 months!
I dont have much to say, its been a slog. But, I still like watching Joe Mauer swat baseballs, I like seeing Brian Dozier hit bombs, I like seeing Max Kepler dive for balls he has no business diving for. Why? Because its baseball and there is only one month left.
Enjoy the game.
Do you know how much Prince I've been listening to in the past month, you guys?
Also, anyone happen to catch The Revolution show last night?

The Red Wings stay alive. The GCL Twins force a playoff game. Poor defense spoils a tremendous game by Lachlan Wells.
My apartment caught fire a couple of mornings ago. The one above me, to be precise. The girls and I were responding to the fire alarm with some apathy until I smelled smoke and realized it was no drill.
Through this fire, we went to my mom's, which indirectly led to my learning of her issues with her leg, which tied into her inability to drive down to Blue Earth, which I indirectly learned was because she needed to be with my grandmother as she goes under the knife to remove skin cancer and replace it with healthy skin.
This has been a really awful summer.
