First Pitch: 7:05pm CDT
TV: FOX
Radio: Sure, but you'll have to find it yourself.

Is it just me, or has this series been kind of epic? We're not talking '91 epic or anything, but still, fun to watch.
Tonight feels like a must-win for the Rangers. If they lose tonight they have to win twice in St. Louis, and I get the feeling that Cardinals fans would sooner gas Busch Stadium and burn it to the ground than let that happen. But then again, what do I know.
Carpenter threw six innings and won Game 1 for the Cards, and in fact might have gone further but his spot came up during a rally in the bottom of the sixth. His Game 5 three-hit shutout to knock the Phillies out of the playoffs might still be, for me, the single-game performance of this post-season, with apologies to Albert Pujols in game 3 of the Series.
Carpenter has won a game in every series for the Cards; Wilson has lost one in every series for the Rangers, including Game 1 to Carpenter. He has a 7+ ERA in the post-season. He's made it through the sixth inning once in those four starts. He's not pitching too well at the moment - this after posting a 1.21 ERA in September for Texas. Curious.
Lineups: TBA.

Depends on if Punto is in the line-up
Otherwise it’s a neutral night and the loser gets their turn on Wednesday.

Just get some RIT dye and modify your current glove
A tie dyed glove would be pretty awesome. Although… aren’t there rules against distracting gloves? I seem to remember a kerfuffle with a pitcher with a neon glove.
by ColossusOfRhode on Oct 24, 2011 8:28 PM EDT up reply actions
I'm not sure,
and I need a new glove for infield anyways. Looking at getting one I can use on 3rd and maybe RF but I can always still use my a700 out there since I like big gloves in the outfield (I’m using my a700 at first as well still, just need a glove for regular infield positions)

Just have to boil water and throw them in. Then add pesto, which is also already made. Scallops involve making a sauce.

Immigrants to the United States from German-speaking countries brought with them some of their favorite foods. One of them was Hamburg Steak. The Germans simply flavored shredded low-grade beef with regional spices, and both cooked and raw it became a standard meal among the poorer classes. In the seaport town of Hamburg, it acquired the name Hamburg steak.

It is not a hamburger as we know it today. For one thing, it isn’t served on a bun.

Go Cardinals on Wednesday!
Then Thursday can go 20 innings.

I’m going to be so lost and confused next week.

Dammit.
I don’t think he realized it got away from the catcher.

Now you can switch over to MNF
And watch a 9-0 game.

That'll only get you a numerical solution
I think… it’s been awhile.

Ask a grad student to do it for you!
Oh, wait.

I usually have undergrads do my research stuff haha

I love undergrads

Haha the great thing is my undergrads are paid undergrad research assistants....
We have an interview process and everything….we actually get good undergrads

Hey, I was one of those when i was an undergrad
I feel used now!
by spanspanspan on Oct 24, 2011 11:53 PM EDT up reply actions
We had good undergrads in grad school
But at my last job (research hospital), the undergrad interns were unpaid volunteers. We made them do lit searches and run all the mindless simulations.
Oh, and get us donuts. That was key.

But yes
They will do anything for a bullet point on a resume…..
Me: “Hey this’ll look good on your resume”
Them: “I’ll do it! I’ll do it!”

I would encourage you all to read the latest rosterbation fanpost
It involves the Twins paying Albert Pujols 40 million a year!
"I learned something yesterday. No use in having rules if there's no punishment for breaking them. You'll be fine if you bite down on the trigger. Enjoy your breakfast."
I think so
She seems to make some, uh, odd comments though.

My rosterbation is almost finished. I’ll wait until after the WS to post it, if at all. But I think it’s pretty reasonable.

Yay Fox 9 News!
“A break-in leads to stolen guns and a dog injured so bad… it had to go to the vet!”
Apparently the dog got stabbed 9 times
So it was serious. Just the way the led into the story… that’s an exact quote above.

Who stabs a dog?!
It’s local news time yet here, so I just have Seinfeld. But I’m sure I can look forward to hearing about someone getting shot in Oakland or something.

Dog broke out of the basement, attacked robber.
Robber found a hunting knife with the guns, defended self.
Dog seemed fine in the videos. Stitches and staples, but otherwise fine.
by spanspanspan on Oct 25, 2011 12:15 AM EDT up reply actions
Well, that's why you don't rob a house with a dog
A cat wouldn’t have attacked him. Good for the dog…
Meanwhile, I have scallops!
