I'm several hours ahead of you guys, and this is the rare game that I can watch live. Pretty stoked. Just hope my internet doesn't crap out on me.

 

Plus, I get to see Miguel Sano for the first time since last spring training. Feels like baseball season!

[Squirrel]

My vantage point today:

[Squirrel]

And look who stopped by!

 

(Psst, it was a look alike poser. From a distance I was fooled, but up close it wasn't him; too short, wrong voice)

Couldn't ask for a better start to a game - Hughes striking out the side and Dozier hitting a leadoff homer.

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Dozier does a dinger!

[Otto von Ballpark]

For those wondering, yes this is on FS North today!

[Otto von Ballpark]

Very confused when I saw "Gordon" leading off the game.  Then I remembered it was the older one!

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Thanks....i was watching on GameDay.

Oh oh, Hughes just gave up a 3 run homer.

[James]

 

Oh oh, Hughes just gave up a 3 run homer.

I agree.  It is time to hit the panic button.

 

Season. Over.

Fire Anders....wait a minute.

Ugh, not good, Phil.  Hope you were working on something this inning.

[Tibs]

Well that got out of hand fast

[Squirrel]

Not fun but it is only ST

Torii totally blew through the stop Glynn threw up at 3rd. Good deal.

Torii still has wheels!

On another note, Sano going 1st to 3rd was impressive.

[Squirrel]

That hit by Hicks seemed to just hang up in the air so long that it seemed someone should have gotten it. Wonder if the breeze pushed it back a bit

[70charger]

So, turns out my internet connection is not really good enough here to stream live uninterrupted. (Not surprising.) What happened with Hicks?

Yeah I was watching Torii that I only caught Sanos run to 3rd when he was sliding. And I was thinking, 'Oh! Sano ran that out!'

[70charger]

How often do they do that in PFP?

[JB_Iowa]

Whatever works.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Just uncoupled myself from today's soccermania long enough to tune in.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I too seem to have missed quite a bit.

 

Looks like a good game!

 

(and lots of highlights on gameday for me to catch up on)

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Rosario comes through!

 

Twins take a lead.

[70charger]

Buxton's in center now. Nice.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I like Grimes on principle.

 

Way to draw the errant throw!

[Linus]

Looks like Pelfrey can come in the game as a RP.....
