Like a light that you kept from your smile: GameThread for Game 50: Blue Jays @ Twins

The Rain has passed.

We start a three game series at beautiful Target Field to play the Twins. If you get the chance, it's a park worth seeing, though the 'Mall of the Americas you can skip. But there is a nice walking mall in downtown Minneapolis, where the bars serve very strong drinks.
A few bit of news. Devon Travis starts his rehab in Buffalo tonight. He'll be joined in the lineup by Dioner Navarro and Dalton Pompey and Miguel Castro is starting. Kind of a Blue Jays opening day reunion. In fact, as I type this, Travis lined out to right.
And there is this:

That pretty close to where he could play the outfield.

Today's title comes from a song by the Lone Bellow called Then Came the Morning. These are guys you really have to see live to get. I don't think I've ever seen a trio sing so full out shouting, but keep very close, very good harmonies before. Not like these guys anyway. You can check out a YouTube of them on the Letterman show singing this song.
GO JAYS GO!


Remember we have rules here. Mostly don't be terrible (it seems like a small thing to ask). No arguing with the Mods, you have a problem, email Tom, but in the thread, let's not debate rules.
