People will be born, live, and die
Empires will rise and fall
Everything will turn to dust
The Tigers and Mariners will still be tied 2-2

Just sneak Skubal into the bullpen in someone else’s uniform and let him pitch again, see if anybody notices

I think that Tork should have gotten a hit so that people could have posted "who up Torkin they shit"

Isn’t it crazy that human brains can do something like track a ball and figure out where it’s going to the point where the crowd in the area it’s going to land will stand up and get ready to catch it and the fielder will stop running because he knows he can’t get to it?
Anyway, I’m very tired.

I have made myself stay slumped on the couch because if I get up and walk around I’m afraid I’ll either stomp the floor so hard it’ll wake everybody up or kick something so hard I’ll break it/my leg #baseball #ALDS #fun #yay #haha #woo

I have to make sure not to let a single noise escape my mouth because if I do I’m not really confident in my ability to keep it from becoming an extremely loud scream (of joy or rage, depending on who’s batting!)

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

Oh hey I forgot how much I hate watching playoff sports for teams I like!
Turns out, it’s a lot!

I’m no mechanic, but… I don’t think it’s supposed to be doing that.

Earlier today my daughter said that her friend mentioned listening to a podcast, so I asked her if she knew what a podcast was. She said no, so I explained it. Then, to explain the name, I had to explain what an iPod was. Then I had to explain what a *broadcast* was.

I feel old.
