What happened with the error to put Esco on the bases? (Watching via game cast)

 

The ol' ball under the glove trick, where you just let it pass on by.

[70charger]

I'm happy I saw that one!!

[ashbury]

Ok rook, let see what ya got

 

Finally some fun, regardless of the outcome.

[Richie the Rally Goat]

yes - I really did not think you personally blamed Mauer - I was making a fairly weak joke.

Well, I've been known to lay blame at his feet in the past...

[TheDean]

Did not see that coming.... I like this Polanco guy.

[Danchat]

Wow, Polanco! Our minor leaguers have been incredible so far this year.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

It looks like it might be a game!

 

Hurray!

[Guest USAFChief]

'bout damn time, Polanco. It's been, like, for-ev-er, since you had a hit.

[ashbury]

Polanco-zie!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Ok rook, let see what ya got

Rook stepped up

[Guest USAFChief]

Steal home?

[Ultima Ratio]

Nevermind

[ashbury]

Steal home?

 

Greedy.

[70charger]

Not so clutch...

[gil4]

[Guest USAFChief]

Greedy.

Realistic.

[70charger]

Nice rally you got going there...

Dang

[ashbury]

Correia-zie feeling a little sick about those two insurance runs in the 5th, right now.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

'bout damn time, Polanco. It's been, like, for-ev-er, since you had a hit.

 

Maybe we should pinch hit him for Florimon earlier in the game tomorrow, like, in the top of the 2nd.

[ashbury]

Wonder if the Twins just about lead the majors in meaningless 8th/9th inning runs by now. Several losses recently where the starter gave up runs, and our guys didn't start scoring until the bullpen was reached.

[Guest USAFChief]

Particularly awful AB by Dozier-zee there.

 

We'll always have the Polanco triple, though.

[JustcallupSANO]

Dozier strikes out....

Correia-zie feeling a little sick about those two insurance runs in the 5th, right now.

Actually, it was Guerrier-zie that gave up the 5th and deciding run!

[JustcallupSANO]

This is me

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

This is me

 

I call "wall" after you.

[ashbury]

Actually, it was Guerrier-zie that gave up the 5th and deciding run!

 

You don't play for the tie on the road, though. Using hindsight, I blame Correia.

[ashbury]

And its...Sam Fuld!

 

And now the pitcher holds the ball, and now he lets it go,

And now the air is shattered by the force of Sam Fuld's blow....

 

There is no joy in Twinsville — mighty Sam Fuld has popped out.

[Halsey Hall]

Terrible at bat. All he needed was to put it in play.

Particularly awful AB by Dozier-zee there.

 

We'll always have the Polanco triple, though.

[jokin]

Actually, it was Guerrier-zie that gave up the 5th and deciding run!

 

Josh Willingham pitched in, twice, on those Correia runs in the 5th.
