Obviously we need a win. Badly.

This isn't a good sign either. I just played Akinator online and had him try to guess Wayne Graham. He gave up after 80 questions and couldn't guess him (although he did guess Roy Williams and Larry Hays). I suppose I may have got some of his questions wrong, but I'm pretty sure Coach Graham did not perform with Nirvana, or ever date Big Sean.
Time to break a streak so we are breaking out Buffalo Brewery's Vanilla Mocha Sunset. I also found Jobu and took him out of storage.
2-0 Owls as Warren drives in a couple.
Chandler walks
Stainy hits into a fielders choice (1)
Byrd walks(2)
JC walks (3)
Warren hits 2 RBI single (4)
CT3 hits a 2 RBI double (5)
Gray hits one to the 1stbaseman who boots it. E-3.
Professional hitter, Kirby Taylor with a successful suicide squeeze.
Missed Kubby, and chandler's at bats crushed that I had sung the wrong words to the radio in my youth.
Stainy with a two run RBI
Bruce Lietzke isn't getting it done on the mound for the Blazers (actually his name is Johnny Lieske but in honor of it being Masters Sunday, I'm renaming him for today to Bruce Lietzke).
After reading the name Bruce posted by FBO, I now have a bad ELO song in my head...
Error and a safety squeeze bunt (?) makes it 5-0.

There's no such thing as a bad ELO song. And according to wikipedia and online lyrics, he's not saying Bruce but groos.

"A common mondegreen in the song is the perception that, following the title line, Jeff Lynne shouts "Bruce!". According to the liner notes of the ELO compilation Flashback, he is saying a made-up lyric, "Grroosss."... After the song's release, so many people had misinterpreted the word as "Bruce" that Lynne actually began to sing the word as "Bruce" for fun at live shows

Gotta trust a Travelling Wilbury.
Bruce is gone anyway, he's been replaced by Stephen Baggett. Since I can't think of any golfers named Baggett, I looked online and there is a store in Los Angeles that is called Baguette Masters, so that will work.
7-0 now after some more walks (Chandler has two walks in the inning) and a two-RBI single by Stainback. We're playing like Jordan Spieth today thankfully.

Master Baggett of Hobbit fame? 05-duck

I wonder if the Owls are just PO'd or if Wayne threatened to start pulling schollies?
