6/19 @ Land of 10,000 Mistakes

[mvp 78]

Paxton vs Lopez

Tough flight to Minneapolis-St Paul after last night's game--and then play another game tonight.

 

Sox team ERA was 28th early in the season, lingered forever at 27th, 26th, 25th, and is now 19th. Pretty amazing. However, injuries to Sale and now Houck are likely to affect that even though yesterday's doubleheader said otherwise with the great Ort (from Mort) starting game one.

 

Twins at 36-36 with the 3d best team ERA in MLB. On this homestand they beat the Brewers twice and then lost 3 of 4 to Detroit.

 

Sox are going with Paxton, Crawford, Whitlock, and a ptbnl.

 

Keep this up, 78, and we will rename you mvp 23.

Into the heart of the Norris Division we go.

Liked a scrimmage.

 

Then I thought of the Norris Trophy, given to the best defenseman... for the Red Sox, that would be in the Nor Us Division.

 

"Don't ignore us," said Reese (slapping his bat into another mitt).

10,000 mistakes? A lot of excellent rock artists and bands came from there, so I'll give them that.

[moonslav59]

Let's hope we fair better vs the American Central Division than the National Central Division.

Kiss me on the BUTT.

No, The Butthole Surfers are from San Antonio.

I take you off ignore just to read a post like this. Embarrassing.

 

I know where the Surfers are from.

 

RIP Teresa Taylor.

Wishing I could be there for this series. Minneapolis is one of my favorite cities

Is it the people? Atmosphere? I’m thinking about visiting.

[mvp 78]

Is it the people? Atmosphere? I’m thinking about visiting.

 

The løveli lakes

 

The wonderful telephøne system

 

And mani interesting furry animals

 

Including the majestic møøse

For starters, the MSP airport is probably my favorite that I have been to in this country.

 

People are great, life moves a little slower there. I went to Saint Paul for a work conference last year and fell in love. Even in the heart of the city, it felt like a small town.

Now THAT is a true accountant answer.

[Thunder]

Now THAT is a true accountant answer.

 

Lol. It's true though. I exclusively fly Delta now that I am a cardholder and Skymiles member, and when I was coming back from San Diego to see the Sox play last month, I purposely went out of my way to connect through Minneapolis rather than Atlanta.

[Jasonbay44]

Minnesota is definitely a state I need to visit. I have a goal to visit every state and would like to attend sporting events in every city, especially baseball stadiums. The only sport I’ve really knocked out a lot of stadiums in is baseball. I did knock out every Philly sports team this year and already as a Steelers fan had knocked out Steelers and Pirates.

 

I’ll be heading to Houston in august (not ideal but whatever) to see Sox play Astros for two of the 4 games.

 

Covid kinda f***ed things up for a lot of my plans and so did having a girlfriend who prioritized the Taylor Swift tour over my sporting event plans, but oh well, I’ll start catching up on that!

Lol to that Taylor Swift part. I went to SD to see the Sox the weekend Taylor Swift was at Gillette. Boy was I glad I was single that weekend, and the 5 months leading up to it

ive never seen more girls at one place in my life. I’m not sure how bad it impacted Gillette and surrounding areas, but in Philly it was worst traffic I’ve ever seen in my life. Normally I can get from Maryland to Philly in two hours, it took us 5 hours there and I couldn’t get out of parking lot till 3 hours after concert.

 

I actually like a Taylor Swift and it was a good show, but due to the price, stressfulness of everything and how he pure exhaustion afterwards, never again lol.

Oh I am a big Swiftie but wouldn't be caught dead at an event like that. If you know anything about Gillette, you know that there is quite literally one road in and out. So I can imagine traffic was brutal. There was also a torrential downpour during most of the Saturday night show. Maybe it's just me, but being soaking wet and too drunk to remember it later really doesn't sound appealing

Yeah I can’t imagine the traffic was anything other than horrible. I would’ve been pissed if it rained at my show, especially because it was a 3 hour show and actually kinda cold in Philly for May. Sounds miserable but I guess it didn’t stop fans from going

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Looks like it's 'dress up as an empty seat night' at the ballpark.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

No, The Butthole Surfers are from San Antonio.

 

I believe he's referring to The MATS.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

After being exposed to the irritating Conehead over the weekend, Youk is almost a relief.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

SOX have something very rare in their line-up compared to rest of MLB; two .300 hitters.

[Jasonbay44]

Good start by Duran

[vegasbob]

Ironic point about eye test as an evaluation technique ..... if you saw Devers in many of his AB's you would wonder why he was on the roster. That 1st inning AB was one.
