Dingler HBP now come on Parker do something

Riley walks instead of a weak pop-up, which I guess is pretty good.

I would be totally OK with Riley trying to golf a home run right now.

So Jones has had nine at bats and got absolutely nothing out of all of them so far this season.

I am pretty much over Jahmai Jones

BABIP’d to death in this game. Although I have to admit, I stopped to rewatch John Wick 4. Something more than this may have happened in my cowardly absence.

So we finally scored a couple runs have the bases loaded and two outs so I’m wondering how they will F this up. Yes I’m frustrated, but I don’t think yelling at grown men is much of a motivator, treating them like children and everything.

Once again, Minnesota let a pitcher go to 100 pitches or just under, 99 for Ober.

On the plus side, we at least won’t suffer at the hands of a no-hitter pitched against us.

Where’s my 12 runs for the Detroit Tigers?

6-0. My son says episode one of the new season of The Boys is incredible.

Dear God… these balls are dropping where there ain’t anybody I think God hates us. Maybe I’ll just rewatch the extremely satisfying part of the John Wick 4 movie where he kills 26 people during the grueling ascent of the 222 steps leading to the Sacré-Cœur Basilica in Paris.

Base is loaded no outs. Run scores on a past ball or wild pitch. I don’t know what. This is not my beautiful house. This is not my beautiful wife. Oh my God what have I done?

Fewer balaclavas than yesterday.

Wow, in the opening slot w/ Jason and Andy, it’s sunny and the weather looks nice. It’s probably still nippy. Right now it’s 52° and feels like 45°. That could happen at Comerica.

Well, I’m a Moran. I thought this was a three game series not a four game series. This is what you get when you have dispassionate robots creating schedules.

I can’t believe they’re playing another night game. The Twins don’t do afternoon getaway games? The people of the Twin Cities certainly can’t all be taciturn Norwegian bachelor farmers who love the cold.

A few of you have mentioned the absence of @Jim Cowan who was also Charles Liston on the old board and wondered what he was doing and if he was OK and I reached out to him through email and he said he’s doing just fine but that he finds his general interest in being a part of a message board on a daily basis to have waned and that it only has its greatest value as an all consuming passion which has for the time being ebbed. He said that he’s excited about McGonigle and the starting pitching and sent his best to a number of you. Since it’s a personal message, I don’t feel comfortable relaying too many of the details, but my own concern was that something healthwise had happened to him - we are both 74 so that can be an issue - and it hasn’t. Anyway, that’s the scoop.

I remember the World Series and Tim McCarver’s announcing and not being a very objective observer, but I didn’t realize until a few days ago he died three years ago, and I feel bad about speaking ill of the dead. I remember about a year ago recounting how badly 1968 must’ve affected him and relishing it and now I’m not particularly proud of my remarks.

Last place in the Central… The only place to go is up!

Loss. Oh well
