First of all, there are any number of Minnesota Twins who owe Justin Morneau—and by extension, Goober—a profuse apology. I mean he was all set up to be the B.O.D. and then some, what with going 4 for 5 with two RBIs and having a nice pick on an errant Jason Bartlett throw in one late inning or another (it's all a blur right now). But then the game went into extra innings (we don't want to talk about that, really) and after a lead-off hit in the tenth Morneau was lifted for a pinch runner—who promptly got picked-off.

Now, Morneau's performance was still exemplary, but close behind him in the early B.O.D.-stakes was one Lew Ford who broke the tie in the 7th with an RBI double. Then, in the 11th, Ford came up with two outs and Mauer on second and singled to left, scoring the Chairman and giving the Twins the lead, and the victory, and giving himself the Boyfriend of the Day

NOTE TO GOOBER: No talkbalk—the B.O.D. bylaws very specifically specify that the boyfriend who most contributes to the Twins victory gets the coveted B.O.D. Actually, there's no talkback anyway. That's in the bylaws too.
