At least we’re not the victims of a no hitter or perfect game…

And the umpire sucks. Called a strike when it’s 3 inches off the strike zone. And Kevin ends up getting a single. Ha!

I hope the Spanish is at least perfectly synced with the action on the field…

Looking forward to Paddack’s historic 22K 98 pitch perfect game. Also loving those bright orange Cal Ripken League jerseys that are taking the place of the hated black Nike City Connect jerseys that look like something out of Tron worn by robots that could kill you.

Javy seemed to hit a lot better when he was playing centerfield. Now perhaps I’m just making all this up, but I think centerfield is probably a less stressful position and he seemed to be better with the bat with less stress to deal with.

Keider Montero Is starting.

I wasn’t watching the game when the collision between Parker and Riley occurred. Wow Parker’s in the hospital overnight?

Well, I don’t have the energy to blame the team. I blame myself for investing so much of my personal happiness in something as ephemeral as a sporting event or team. Yes perhaps I’ve been wrong to blindly follow the socially constructed manias about sports to which I was exposed as a child. Maybe I should test these manias analytically, through experimentation and a “scientific method.” Maybe this scientific method could be extended to other fields of learning: the natural sciences, art, architecture, navigation. Perhaps I could lead the way to a new age, an age of rebirth, a Renaissance! Naaaaaahhh!

Got out of the inning at least. Right now I’m just hoping for a skin of your teeth, white knuckled, hold my beer Martha, one run victory. I’d take anything that results in a W.

So we’re tied, but on a sac fly nothing to write home about. I wonder if this team was figured out by “baseball” because they’re picking up where they left off in the regular season last year, regardless of showing some sparks in the playoffs. Or I wonder if it’s just baseball

The wheels on the bus may be coming off of Flaherty start today after allowing two hits in a row.

Another 100 pitch plus starter from the twins. Do they know something the rest of us don’t or are they just flying by the seat of their pants?

Jack threw a clean inning in the fifth… “just when I think I’m out, they pull me back in…”

Man, this is getting tedious. Maybe I should do something better with my life.

It looks like we’re going to have to score more than just one run to win this game now. We might have to even hit a home run, which seems impossible, but I guess it could happen.

I’d be OK with Riley golfing a home run right now.

Nope…

Javier Báez singles on a fly ball to center fielder Byron Buxton. Zach McKinstry to 2nd. TIGERS ARE THREATENING…

Was starting to look bad but a sweet DP gets us out of the inning.

Everything the Tigers hit seems to die at the warning track. Heck.

For God sake, do something, Spencer

Riley strikes out.

Two on with nobody out in the first, and this is where Riley Greene needs to turn the page
