Missed all of the 1st inning except the last ground out. What's up with Diamond?
He's not throwing strikes across - lot of low balls, getting behind hitters.Quote:

Have to be impressed by Diamond's composure.
That was a better inning. Maybe Diamond is getting going now.
Boy, if you looked up the word "journeyman" in the dictionary you might see Kevin Correia's picture. And yet he's got the Twins well in hand through four. Everytime we think the offense is looking OK, they make some guy seem like Cy Young.
At least Diamond doesn't open up a vein. Keeps the bleeding to a minimum.
Stop the presses!!! Revere reaches on a walk!!
Managed to knock out Correia. What left-handed pitcher will be coming in?
How in heaven's name does Revere not score from 2nd on a single to center?
EDIT: and of course it ends up meaning the Twins don't score.
I missed it, should he have scored?Quote:

The single was fairly shallow but he could have scored if he went all out.
Dick-Bert mentioned something about knowing where infielders were positioned. Unfortunately I wasn't really paying enough attention to see what happened.
Nice HR by the Span Man
Man, what have they been feeding Span recently? Musta ate his Wheaties.
On Revere not scoring, I still have questions about Liddle's effectiveness at 3rd but it is so hard to tell anything on TV. I hope that one of these days some of the people who go to a lot of games will comment on what they observe from him.
Gotta love giving up a cheap home run.
They prolly have the A/C blowing out when the home team is up.Quote:
