That was a good half inning, considering that the players were probably bummed about not getting the run on the Valaika double.

Bad breaks and bad calls are a part of the game ........ let's go, O's.

I'm not above talking to myself in the game thread.

Somewhat disturbingly, the older I get the more I talk to myself. I am one of those dudes you see in the store having a conversion with themselves about which watermelon to buy.

Wojo at 80. I guess he'll start the 5th at least.

Agree.

Mullins on base all three times.

The perfect leadoff man.

I bought an Orange Dew Melon the other day, oh man was it ripe, melt in your mouth.

Never been a big Watermelon fan.

Scott, saying that you and I are "kind of" homers is like saying that Mt. Everest is "kind of" tall.

 

o

Fun fact:   Everest isn't the tallest mountain in the world.

It's the highest.   But when you are at its base in Nepal, you are already way above sea level.

Kilamanjaro is actually taller because its base is basically at sea level in the Serengeti desert, as Toto has taught us.

I like that stuff ...... but the Rays' announcers pointed out that it was an excellent opportunity to get a bunt single if he had pushed the ball more, because of the set-up of the Rays' infielders.
