Game 159 Overflow Thread #2
Bobby Seay probably made a second overflow thread unnecessary, after allowing four runs to score. (Two of those runs are charged to Fu-Te Ni.)
But the Tigers still have two innings in which to stage a comeback and give that packed Comerica Park crowd something to celebrate. Do you still have some hope in you?
Twins 8, Tigers 1 as we go to the bottom of the eighth.

I'm going to be at Sunday's game
I really hope it won’t matter at that point (in a good way for us of course) because otherwise I will probably suffer from several heart-related traumas.

first sign of offensive life in 6 innings
of a walk and an error
Not sure what they are upset about.
Hit their first guy in the top of the 9th in the head. Enough of this crap.
Twins trying to get us to retailiate, leading to supsensions.
Take the least valuable pitcher and drill the next guy.
That would be the perfect job for me.
I’m half deaf, so I have to read lips quite a bit. If only I had cable, I could tell you what was said.
delmon young
is a total piece of shit, he deserved that, despite the fact that the pitch was 100% not intentional
You sure about that?
Both teams have gotten pretty sporty as the day has worn on.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
We took the bait.
Will Laird be suspended?
Not a good idea, guys. Not going into the last series of the season.
Doubtful
Unless we see video of Laird doing something intentional, or his sign (yeah right) indicating to throw at him.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
Don't listen to Rod and Mario
There is no such rule, I’ve got no clue what they’re on about
2100 Woodward and Twitter
I can see Bondo possibly eating something
If they believe the intent was there (which as we know, is usually yes)
2100 Woodward and Twitter
I don't think...
That MLB would take the bait on that. Bonderman for 5 games (no great loss) and that’s it. Granted I just finished saying that I didn’t see the fight, but unless Laird was going after somebody, I can’t see him getting a suspension.
This was really dumb.
We don’t have the best standing with the league office. Gardenhire must be laughing pretty hard. We should have waited until next year to settle this.
I have to agree
Clearing the benches, bullpens out… not the best idea. The league office looks at this, sees the Tigers down 8-3 on a day they can clinch against their big opponent… it’ll be seen as retaliation on Bondo’s part. I don’t think anyone else will eat a suspension though, or even a fine.

I'm sure the Twins started it due to the Mauer sign-stealing stuff.
But wasn’t that tipped by some northernTV station?
I kind of doubt that's playing into it.
But there all kinds of things the have.
-The awful strike zone today
-Baker coming way inside on Thames
-Twins fans thought the Thames slide was a little cheap (I can see it)
-Awful call on Santiago getting doubled off 2nd
-Did I mention awful umpiring
+1
horrible umpiring this game. I don’t think Mauer sign stealing had anything to do with it, I think it started with bad calls and just escalated from there.

Rod and Mario, I have no idea what rule you're referring to
I just searched “eject” throughout the entire MLB rulebook and found absolutely nothing about automatic ejections. It’s umpire’s discretion. The only “automatic” is if a manager leaves the dugout to call balls and strikes then he is warned and if he reaches the plate he is ejected.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
Yeah, it's really weird watching him...
…after you haven’t seen him for a good chunk of the year.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
Probably because he threw at Opie
to instigate retaliation

Mijares threw behind Everett
Young most likely blames Mijares for him being hit by Bondo.
We can trace the whole thing back to Thames getting thrown at twice.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
Can't really say I blame him, honestly
Young isn’t really a hothead sort of player.
2100 Woodward and Twitter
So do we have it in us?
Maybe bringing The Savior into the ballgame will lead us to the Promised Land.
my meeting started right as seay loaded the bases and cabrera came up
Man, I gotta start skipping meetings….the one on Tuesday covered the 10th inning, and now, the Twins scored 4 in the 8th right after I leave to put it away.
Rally Slackers, anyone?

He huffed and he puffed...and he still made an out
Aubrey FAIL

Well, at least it'll be enjoyable to clinch against the hated white sux
silver linings and stuff, people, gotta look for ’em

F Joe Nathan. F the Twins. F Minnesota.
Whew. OK, let’s do this. Time to make Ozzie swear uncontrollably again.
Is there a football game on this weekend?
Can we park a 42 inch plasma screen in the visitors’ locker room?
The Michigan-Michigan State game is on Saturday
Chris Getz at least would care, seeing as he was a Wolverine.

Clayton Richard would have cared too
if he didn’t play for San Diego now
Official BYB Juju Consultant...now accepting rally creature applications!
Saturday should be fun.
UM-MSU at noon, Notre Dame (I know, I know) at 3:30, Twins vs. Grienke at 4:00 and Tigers (possibly for division title) at 7:00. Sounds like a good day.
And I don't work!
(Except I’m not a Michigan or a Michigan State fan, so that means nothing to me)

Maybe all the stars in the universe will align
And UM, Leprechaun tools, Twins and douche sox will all lose.
Hi, I'm home
Apparently I missed some sort of excitement. As I left lab, I checked my iPod and Gameday simply said “Delmon Young hit by pitch.” That’s all it said. By the time I got to my car and turned on the radio, there was a lot of background commotion and Armando Galarraga was pitching (very well, I might add).
