How's that pitch to contact workin'?

[Jerr]

Well, that is enough for me.....hope some how they come back.

[BigTrane]

This whole fiasco of a half-inning is on Dick Bremer's head.

 

He starts making fun of the other team and bragging up the Twins .... and the baseball gods inevitably get revenge.

 

Listening to Dazzle, so don't know what Dick said.

Still, I'd pin it on Correia and Twins defense.

[JB_Iowa]

Manute Bol couldn't have caught that Pinto throw at 3B.

[Guest USAFChief]

Remember when we scored 6 runs on 8 walks and three WP's?

 

This is what that looks like from the other side.

[cmathewson]

How many outs has Correia gotten this inning? Six?

[James]

That was ugly. So. Very. Ugly.

[Don't Feed the Greed Guy]

Corner outfield defense does matter.

Yep, and that about says it all...

[howeda7]

Collabello needs to DH from now on period. Pinto should catch most days if they want him in the line-up. Even swapping him and Mauer would be an upgrade, but they'll never do that.

[iastfan112]

Corriea could have been better but jfc defense!

[Guest USAFChief]

Manute Bol couldn't have caught that Pinto throw at 3B.

True. Even if he was still alive.

[JB_Iowa]

Can Collabello keep this up?

 

So impressed by the way he handles himself.

[cmathewson]

He should be the lead-off hitter. Gardy put the guy who hasn't gotten on base all year at lead-off last night because of his speed.

[cmathewson]

By "he" I mean Mauer, mister bunt single.

[Guest USAFChief]

let's go peen-toe, clap clap clapclapclap.

[cmathewson]

Let's go S'uki clap clap clapclapclap.

[Guest USAFChief]

let's go peen-toe, clap clap clapclapclap.

I blame me.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Manute Bol couldn't have caught that Pinto throw at 3B.

 

A one-hopper to LF Jason Kubel is how Gladden called it. And that he would have been out by ten feet. Ugh.

[Guest USAFChief]

Y'know, we're only 3 WPs away from tying this sucker up.

[Guest USAFChief]

Let's go S'uki clap clap clapclapclap.

We can all thank cmat for that.

[cmathewson]

Atta boy Kurt!

[BigTrane]

Yeah, Suke!

Say what you will about framing, etc., he's producing.

[Guest USAFChief]

Feel free to break into a full trot and help Dozier-zie there, Hicksie.

[afurry91]

Would you throw a damn strike, please?

[afurry91]

Colabello should never ever ever play in the field.

[JB_Iowa]

Ouch!

[Danchat]

Whoa... Hicksie! Watch out there!

[howeda7]

Hicks was like '$%^ I knew you couldn't catch that.'

[Hawkeye12]

Aaron Hicks making like Kelly Leak out there.
