Anyone watching the other ALDS right now?

Chip Caray and Ron Darling are just epic fail behind the mike. I’m so glad the Angels didn’t draw these guys (again).

What, you don't like a thousand references to "fisting" a night?

Although, Darling did drop a Dennis Miller-esque Dag Hammarskjold reference during the Tigers-Twins play-in game that made me chuckle…

We Tigers fans thought they were in the tanks for the Twinkies, and the Twins faithful thought they were overtly rooting for the Tigers…you hear what you want to hear, I guess.

For every time I’ve heard Chip Caray call a sharp grounder a “line drive,” or every time he gets his home run call ready for a pop fly that dies 40 feet in front of the warning track or goes 20 rows foul.

the Great Plague of Seville

1647-1652. Took out about a quarter of the population in Seville. I’m trying to figure out how the city structure affected the spread of the plague.

I'm gonna be spending half of the game approx here then heading to the sports bar where I was last night.

Shockingly there was NO Red Sox fans at the place I was at……..

Did meet one other Angel fan there though.

There were like 20 guys rooting on Nebraska against MizzU last night.

What a weird and great night.

AJ Burnett sucks. Five walks and two plunks in less than six innings. If the Twins had anyone who could hit outside of Span-Mauer-Kubel-Cuddyer they would have run him off the field by now. And if Carlos Gomez knew how to run the bases.
