Sucks that Kahnle had to come bail Kenta out yesterday. I don't trust Vest closing

That a boy ! Beardown !

Got our ace going tomorrow with a chance of a 4 game sweep. That's so hard to do and would be huge

In an after game interview Tork said 'gosh." That was kind of pleasantly unexpected. With so much brash talk with pro players "gosh" is kind of innocent.

As far as I'm concerned, the game yesterday was the best game of the year. I know it's early, but having the two 1-1 picks playing so well is exactly what the team needs. So far this year, Mize has been the best starting pitcher, and Tork the best hitter.
