I'll put the usual stuff in the OP when I get home.

In for the win.

In to watch the whiffle bat offense ride again...........

I picked up chi chi in fantasy. I'm assuming this will guarantee us a win. You're welcome.

Taking the fall for the team. I like it.

Get this shit ready boys!!!!

Time for the offensive explosion!

Bats break out tonight

If this works you'll be a god in this town.

Nice to see the drinking starting early as well.

You seem nice

I always love Friday night games. Last day of the work week, look forward to the weekend, don't have to go to bed early like work nights.

Then the Royals normally let me down on Friday night games. :(

**** you DeShields. ****er was impossible to get out last time we faced these guys.

So what are you drinking?
