Game 161: Tragic Number 1.
Twelve teams of thirty have any reason to play today beyond "well, they scheduled 162, so we gotta play em, right?" The Twins are one of those teams.

Infielder Chuck Scrivener was drafted by the Twins in the seventeenth round in 1966, but did not sign.
Jim Joyce has been a major league umpire since 1989.
We would also like to wish a very happy birthday to spookymilk.
October 3, 2015: My Reward
For my birthday, I have 22 hours of work-related obligations.
Game 160 recap. GOSO, probably.
The game started off great. 1 early run, batters getting on base, Ervin Santana keeping the Royals at bay. But then the bats went silent. The Royals eked out a run. Then another and another and by the time the Twins bats woke up it was too late.
Santana was tagged with the loss, but that is stupid because he pitched a great game. 7/4/2*/2*/3/3. The 2 gets an asterisk because Big Erv left the game with a runner on base and Glen Perkins imploded and allow the run to score and gave the loss to Santana.
With the Angels and Astros winning the Twins are 2 back with 2 to play. There is still a chance, but we are deep in the weeds and need to plug a 5 iron into the hole from 150 yards out. 😥
Game 160. Royals at Twins.
Word on the street that this is a big game!
Minor Details: Games of September 21
We win one and we lose one. D. J. Baxendale and Jason Wheeler lead the Lookouts to the Southern League title. The Kernels can't overcome a three-run West Michigan fifth and fall short.

I haven't actually watched this clip all the way through, but I'll spin it anyway based on the lineup alone.

This may skew into "live...?" territory (and yes, we do have a tag for that one).

FMD 10-02-2015: What AMR Must Feel Like…
...when he thinks, oh wait, it's Friday already?
Okay, um, how about everyone talk about that time... when they dropped their lists?
No one's supposed to read these things anyway, right?
