I might try to have Kix for breakfast on one of these stops.

Well, that’s even worse, isn’t it? Good thing there was already one out when I was able to tune back in, otherwise I might have had a heart dissection on the way to TSA.

Would you be willing to spend 30 bucks to get MLB.tv for the postseason?

That’s exactly what made it a genius move at that moment. Guardians sure weren’t looking for that!

So just as McStinky struck out to end the ninth, the Uber dropped us off at Terminal 1, so I had to focus on getting tags and checking bags in and all that. After I was done and we left that counter, I saw that Vest let a man get to third with one out. On the way to TSA, I did see Vest field the chopper and tag Ramirez out coming off third, and then getting C.J. Kayfus (.500/.583/.700 against us this year) to pop out to Javy. By the time I showed the humorless TSA lady my spiffy new Real ID, I was the happiest person in line.

Has this ever worked even once? 😉

There we go, two pitches and out of the eighth.

there you go guys keep the positive vibes coming

Now the umpires are icing Vest? WTF

What is it with Skubal and his lost ability to do anything on the mound that’s not actually pitching the ball?

McStinky bunts the run home. Needed that! Close it out, Tarik!

Good thing we didn’t walk Ramirez there. 😏

I was just seriously thinking that if there was any game you have to get 110 pitches—or even more?—out of Skubal, it’s today’s.

Tigers have this irritating recent habit of scoring in only one inning and getting shut out in the other eight. That’s obviously not going to cut it today.

Am I being overly sensitive, or is Eduardo Perez calling the game from the Guardians perspective?

Two pitches, two outs, then two hits, one run. Just like we drew it up on the board in the locker room.

Considering the consequences which are all but certain, who among them is gonna bring it up to the others? You have no idea whose side anyone is truly on, so nobody's going to test that proposition, are they? Particularly given that there are certainly wolves in sheep's clothing among them.

Far from being unintentionally ironic, I think it's clear projection on his part. Any top brass who snarks back about Trump's fat is gonna get a one-way ticket to Twentynine Palms or Eielson Air Force Base or Guam.

Good memory! Yes we will be stopping on the corner again, because why the heck not?

Speaking of ice cream, that’s really how this playoff appearance feels to me. A lot of people are mad at how the Tigers make the playoffs, which I have trouble truly understanding, since we are one of only 12 teams even in it no matter how we got there. (My buddy the diehard Mets fan knows what I mean.) But I will say that the way we got there has made me realize how precious it is to even have a chance in the dance. It almost completely slipped away from us, but by the grace of 1,000 gods, here we are. It’s another thing to appreciate just being able to have. Win or lose, I’m thrilled we’re playing today.

Out of reactions at the moment, but this is a +1 for me. Talking to seniors is THE main reason I love volunteering as a delivery driver for a local pantry. I have a regular clientele of maybe 50 or so people, mostly seniors, I deliver to at least every two weeks. Most of the know me by “first name” (they are always “miss first name” and “mister last name” to me, and they appreciate the respectful address), and we know each other well enough to ask questions about certain topline personal things like family and health issues. One of them, Mr Davenport, has even told me I’m his best friend, and I suspect he really means it. I get where he’s coming from—he’s in his 80s, health issues, living alone in rough circumstances in a low-income high-rise building in the big city, feels isolated from everything around him, and he has said as much. I sense it wouldn’t be right to disabuse him of the notion, so I try to be as gracious as I can about it. He’s an extreme example, but point is, me showing up with their food from the pantry is a big highlight for most of my clients, and not just for the food itself. I’m so blessed to be in a position to provide them both sustenance and social contact. Doing this has been literally the best choice I have ever made, and by that I’m talking what it means for myself, not necessarily for them.

Yes, that is a valid flip side. She was simply an embarrassment. She might even be a key reason MLB so strictly vets prospective owners nowadays.

Here’s the list I have seen—I am mildly disappointed by some of them, but absolutely floored by none of them.

My wife and I are flying to LA tonight and then renting a car, and then guess what we’re going to do next? Here’s a hint:
