Wow, that was fast!! (And disturbing, as always).
Way to go, Jackal! Boy, did we ever need that one. Thanks to Batgirl for firing up the boys, and to the pinch-bloggers for filling in so ably.
Posted by: Nick at June 23, 2005 02:19 PM91 pitches! Good gravy!
Well-deserved. Gotta give a shout-out to Leeeeecroy as well, though.
Posted by: Dr. Trivicon at June 23, 2005 02:19 PMholy fastness batgirl.
thank you batgirl for coming home. it is obvious the power you hold.
Posted by: aurora at June 23, 2005 02:20 PMWow, nice welcome back to BG from Carlos. Great choice
Posted by: SDave at June 23, 2005 02:20 PMGreat to have you back, BG. And Carlos, way to take charge, love ya man.
Posted by: Rods at June 23, 2005 02:23 PMThat picture brings three words to my mind: "Donde esta Blanco?"
I love you, Silva! In a NSMC kind of way, of course.
Batgirl, thank you for making the Twins win again.
Posted by: brent at June 23, 2005 02:24 PMWell, the game _was_ perfect until I had to see THAT PICTURE.
Still-- yes, BOD. Love you, Jackal!
Love you, BG!
Posted by: Katharriet at June 23, 2005 02:27 PMJackal didn't even have any 3 ball counts! Wow! Nice outing when we needed one
Posted by: SDave at June 23, 2005 02:28 PMI say that pic makes the day perfect! Holy great game Jackal, Doc, GTX, and everyone!
Great game to BG too!! yay for being back!!
wow. I was hoping not to run into Caroline, or whoever, ever again.
but if it means the Twins win, I'll gladly gaze upon ... um, her... every day for the rest of the season!
way to go, Jackal!
Posted by: kafumbly at June 23, 2005 02:32 PMWelcome back BG. Thanks for getting that monkey off our back.
Reminds me of a TK saying. Chemistry is today's starting pitcher. Well Carlos and the Twins gets an "A" in chemistry today.
Posted by: Brundlefly at June 23, 2005 02:36 PMThat's a terrible picture, but I guess we kind of deserved it. Good job Jackal! Let's go kick some Brewer ass!
Posted by: ndtf at June 23, 2005 02:37 PMYou know, if you waxed the eyebrows and got rid of the facial hair...(s)he has nice eyes and a killer smile ...
Sorry, the heat is getting to me.
Posted by: Dee at June 23, 2005 02:46 PMOh god, my eyes, my eyes!
Oh god, my (fantasy baseball) team, my team!
I didn't start Carlos today against the relatively hot Tigers, and what does he do, but pitch a gem of a game that would have dropped my ERA and WHIP by considerable chunks.
Stupid stupid Paul creature.
It is so good to have BG back. I knew she would get these boys going. I'm looking forward to the recap of this game.
Posted by: mas at June 23, 2005 02:54 PMI apolgize to the Twins once again. And am glad to see that they took sweet vegence against those pretenders of a complete games the last two days :)
Silva did what needed to be done, and deserves BOD kudos.
Posted by: Torhu at June 23, 2005 03:02 PMWow. He's stacked.
Posted by: ss at June 23, 2005 03:09 PMOh God. The coaches are still burned into my brain, now this? Will it never stop? I adore you, Jackal, and you did a fine job today. But... but...
Much as I love Cuddy Poster Day, I can't help but imagine a Hottest Chick Poster day.
Anyway, a fine outing and congrats on your title. You earned it.
Posted by: LaurieNY at June 23, 2005 03:19 PM"I can't help but imagine a Hottest Chick Poster day."
I can...and that'll be one empty dome.
Posted by: Torhu at June 23, 2005 03:22 PMDid anyone remember to get Laurie a Cuddy poster today?
Jackal, thank you. May you inspire No. 1 and No. 2 as well. And please, please, please, let us sweep the Beermakers.
(Welcome back, BG. God, how I missed you.)
Posted by: SaraZ at June 23, 2005 03:22 PMSheesh, BG! If you keep this up, then none of the Twins players will want to be BOD anymore, and then they'll keep on playing sub-par baseball the rest of the season! No one had a chance to be BOD while you were gone, and so no one played well. Surely there's a better way!
~_-
Batgirl, I'm glad you're back. Now maybe we can keep on winning. Hey, maybe the impossible will happen and Batgirl's presence will have a negative effect on the ChiSox and they'll finally roll over and die like we've been waiting for all season long.
Posted by: Belle at June 23, 2005 03:36 PMHmmmmm....regarding the picture, shouldn't it be GOD (Girlfriend of the Day)?
Posted by: Rods at June 23, 2005 03:40 PMBeautiful really! And they won! Yay boys yay!
Posted by: Maren at June 23, 2005 03:48 PM"Hmmmmm....regarding the picture, shouldn't it be GOD (Girlfriend of the Day)?"
If I were in charge of picking a Girlfriend of the Day, it would have to go to BG. Clearly her return sparked some magic in the boys today. Here's to many more beautiful Twins wins.
Posted by: ndtf at June 23, 2005 03:54 PMi don't know, but i kinda like him...er..i mean her ;)
I was in class so I didn't hear the game, but it sounds like it's just what ewe needed.
Welcome Back BG! :)
Posted by: pinkflamingo at June 23, 2005 03:57 PMWell spoken, NDTF.
Posted by: Rods at June 23, 2005 03:57 PMWow.
Big break through on stuff at work. Jackal gives the bullpen some rest. Ford, Ryan, Rodriguez, and Williams get some playing time. Twins win.
Oh yeah, and BG is back.
Life is good.
Posted by: TwinsFoghorn at June 23, 2005 04:53 PMDearest BG,
Love you madly. But these photos are more than a little creepy. Like bearded lady at the carnival side show creepy.
love always,
mmm
Posted by: mmmarkiep at June 23, 2005 05:15 PMTwo words.... eyebrow pluck
Posted by: Ryan at June 23, 2005 11:44 PMCongrats, SILVA!
Posted by: Stacy at June 24, 2005 12:23 AMNoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Ah well. Good pitching. Scary photo.
(You gotta wonder what the clubhouse is like when these photos come out. I imagine print outs posted around the room...)
Posted by: NY-Brian at June 24, 2005 12:28 AMY'know, I thought Carlos looked a little different on the mound yesterday...but BOD was no question in our minds!
(I'll send Laurie her very own Michael Cuddyer poster. (I'm not sure what they were thinking making that picture into the poster. Perhaps he was upset about all of us girls drooling over his smile...))
BTW, I've been wondering for a while where GTX came from...I seemed to have missed it.
Just Beth
Posted by: Just Beth at June 24, 2005 08:27 AMShouldn't that say G.O.D. (as in "thank you, G.O.D.")?
Posted by: nailbiter at June 24, 2005 08:35 AMOh, Carlos, he's a beautiful woman and a hell of a pitcher.
Bat-girl's a fantastic writer and a bringer of good luck. Please don't ever leave again.
