Game Thread: Twins @ Yankees, 6/1@12:05pm CT

[Squirrel]

YES announcers are saying the Twins are the only team that doesn't shift for McCann.

 

Oh, that crafty Gardy...always one step ahead of the other managers.

 

They've said that every at McCann has had during this entire series.

[Gibby]

My guess...Jim Kaat.

 

What are we guessing? I want to play.

[jokin]

Gardy continues his sterling challenge record...

Having Hughes on that 3 year deal is looking so nice right now.

It was a pretty close play, its probably a play that the challenge was going to whatever the initial call was.

I know...they're informative, but quite repetitive!

 

And also, they keep repeating things.

Twins pitcher with most strikeouts vs. the Yankees since '61

Not to mention the redundancy.

Name a Twin named after a domestic animal?

I guessed Kaat, too.

 

Schedule was more balanced so I think that would contribute.

Thx, jokin...much better than I thought.

Yeah ... I gave them the benefit of the doubt after the first game ... then it comes up ... again ... yesterday and i'm like ... don't you have any new material? But I don't know what it's like up there calling games, so, meh ... I chalk it up to me not liking most things (if not all) Yankees

Thankyou, I'll go with Eddy Bane.

Danny Ferret.

Then, uh, don't waste your challange.

 

It baffles me how any team can be below .500 on challenges. They all have access to replays before they actually have to challenge.

[Mike Sixel]

Kubel, Pinto......that is all.......

Santana.

 

Edit: that's my guess, not the answer

I'm with you. I hate everything but Rivera and Jeter, so next year I can officially hate everything Yankee

[Riverbrian]

Okay, Howard Sinker posts a menu for Yankee Stadium. What seems more absurd?

 

Nachos Grande (cheese, salsa, sour cream) $12.00

Fresh Popcorn $7.75

 

 

I realize it depends on the size but the popcorn still seems more absurd to me.

 

I was in New York City once. Probably around 1996. I bought a Mountain Dew and it cost 35 dollars.

A pack of smokes is $18 in Seattle.

Yeah, but that was before the mayor outlawed the Big Gulp

In a year or two, people will scream at management for not making it a longer deal.

I still like Brett Gardner.

That joke was Superflous.

More injury bad luck for the Twins:

Sounds delicate... I hope the surgeon doesn't make his nose glow.

[Gibby]

That joke was Superflous.

 

This comment was not needed.

[longstrangetrip]

That joke was Superflous.

 

As opposed to just kinda flous?

I can just hear the bartender to his regulars: "psst...watch this. This rube looks like he's from North Dakota. I bet I can get $35 for a soda."
