3rd inning finally over. But an 0-2 single and that fucking shift cost three runs. 3-1 Sox.

those days they had to sell insurance or cars in the off-season to make ends meet. I remember the days when some really big names held out for the absurd amount of $100,000.

Fuck, with an actual runner we would have had a run in and a man on second. Instead, we have men on first and second. Which is then turned into 1st and 3rd with one out.

Marisnick steals 2B and scores as the throw hits him and goes into LCF. He almost beat Carter to the plate.

Correa with a rule-book double plates Altuve. Marwin has to stop at 3B, but Astros take a 4-3 lead.

Gattis with a dribbler plates Marwin so it's now 5-3

In the box score that will look like a routine 1-2-3 inning.

Fields conquers, again.

I think it's the same one, but it's hard to tell what she really looks like with all the sheer terror in her eyes.

That may be her, but she ain't momma to all them kids. He had like four wives and baby mommas. I think momma of daddy's baby girl is the one he tied to the best post and beat with the bowling trophy.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

Bowling trophy you say? Why, that's creative. I wouldn't have pegged Dr Brown as a champion bowler. But do you know who is? That's right, Mookie Betts!

Girls like guys with skills.  Bowling skills, hand doctor skills, statistics skills . . .
