Open Thread II: Game 146 - Cleveland Indians @ A's
As we turn unperturbed to the last third of our Thursday excursion -- the Mastersons vs. the Mortensens -- Kurt has hurt the inert Tribe with a 3-run blurt, part of a murderous 4-run spurt in the third. Add a Sweeney Squirt in the first and we are 5-2 two thirds immersed.

Can’t find anything about it on a quick search though.
