This lyric from “Gone Fishing” might be my favorite from any Thomas song just for how brutally honest it is to its target audience.

Sometimes, life will throw you a curveball, and it will hurt. But all you can really do is suck it up, put a smile on your face, and weather it.

Sometimes you swing and miss. The result is the same, it's a STRIKEOUT. ⚾ The Office of Major League Baseball has thrown us a curveball and deemed our beloved Tomahawk Light Lime Lager as just too good. So we compromised, and agreed to take the K with this wicked curveball.

Ben Brown was stupendous today, firing off 7.0 No-Hit IP with 10 K

Brown utilized his 2-pitch mix to near perfection, filling the zone with fastballs and generating whiffs & chases with his curveball. Both pitches graded out well

The rookie has 2.72 ERA and 2.42 FIP in 46.1 IP

Mitch Spence had a strong start today, holding the Rays to 1 H in 5.1 IP

Spence's slider graded out very well today, as it induced a lot of chases and weak contact. His cutter and curveball were also effective.

Tyler Glasnow had a strong start today, tossing 7.0 IP with 2 ER, 2 H, 8 K, 4 BB

Glasnow showed off his fantastic stuff generating 15 whiffs on 32.6 Whiff%. The damage came off a hanging curveball which Lindor took for a HR. Other than that, and the 4 BB, he was great

Throw (someone) a curve/curveball - to surprise someone with something that is difficult or unpleasant to deal with

Example - Mother Nature threw us a curve ball last winter with record-breaking amounts of snow.
