8/2 Game Thread: Indians vs. Twins
Whatever we talk about when we talk about baseball, this is where we talk about it
Hello, and welcome to today’s game thread. If things go south this might turn into a #YandyWatch, but it would need to be really bad for that to happen. I think.
Earlier today I heard a trumpet described as a “kind of loud pretzel” and so I’m hoping to carry that energy throughout the day
Non-Baseball fun fact: It appears that early Egyptians Pharaohs relied on monuments/reliefs with writing to portray themselves as the crucial lynchpin holding together many disparate elements to justify their power. Pharoahs were portrayed as the tether between Upper and Lower Egypt; Desert and Nile; Life and Death; etc. In this way they kept disorder from spilling over into order. In other words, it’s probably the earliest documented use of state-sanctioned propaganda.
