hey he also pulled Caglianone so that they had Lane Thomas with no hope of making a play at the plate on that ball

well at least this Royals team is on a channel I get so I can watch them lose 90

Mikolas has been around for long enough (on and off) that one of the guys who went 5 for 15 with 3 HRs vs Mikolas is now an MLB hitting coach (Vogelbach)

also considering that Flaherty is one of a few RHPs that Lane Thomas hits, there's a chance that Lane would have started tonight anyways (I think most of the RHPs that Lane hits are former Cardinals pitchers since he also has a good record vs Mikolas)

9 hard hit balls is actually below their average per game (they had 164 in 16 games before tonight). It's not a luck thing, it's a not hitting the ball hard often enough thing

just remembered the college experience (07ish) of finishing papers, putting them on a flash drive, and walking to the library to print them because any printer would be larger than my laptop and be a pain for various reasons

the quest to get Naylor to watch Quantum Leap reminding me that I watched a bunch of QL on G4 15yrs ago (and that the G4 channel was ended twice since then)

An amazing thing that you can use to watch 40yr old episodes of This Week in Baseball. youtu.be/6oxCnH4Br_Y

watching MTV Classic lately means seeing lotsssss of commercials for CBS shows and I suspect that the target audience for this new version of Matlock really loves that show

also the Tony Doko commercials make him sound like a bit of a goober

meanwhile the Hall gear in late 98 was sorta "Okay, I can't wear red and black while feuding with the red and black, so just switch the red to white"

could say that it's possible to dream in AI.. in the sense that there's a vivid depiction of things that didn't happen.. welcome to my TedTalk

except the NBA All-Star Game, unless they set the over for that one at 300 or something

who's still picking over for basketball games in a dome?

New York Yankees postponements in 1964

should I watch the video to figure out if the smiling guy is the upper class or not

A certain amount of SC hearing analysis is people trying to figure out the moods of justices like it’s a focus group of people reacting to a speech. I guess it’s good to broadcast the hearings but it might have obvious downsides

Jim Avery being the embodiment of my theory about Rs moving from StLCo to Jefferson County to swing it hard R. Also, Dave Broach who I don't know how many more terms he can seek since he won a special election in 1993 and they counted partial terms until 2002

various names I hadn't seen in print for a few years who filed (not saying any will win): Frank Barnitz, Michael Frame, Lyndon Bode

Vitello with the plan to relate to major leaguers by saying the dumbest possible stuff in public

"the only gambling problem I have is picking losers" - voice actor in a gambling ad

are you getting the "Dale's a loser, I get my money as soon as I can because i'm a winner" ads

Pitino did coach in the same conference as Siena during his exile so maybe that Siena/Duke game showed Pitino a thing or two that a team with more than 5 players could use against Duke in a future game (or maybe coaching forever has upsides)

thinking Google doesn't have the right image for this restaurant

yeah I wasn't expecting Arkansas to get past Arizona this year

basketball game could be going better for the Hogs
