[Hrbowski]

9 runs in the first three and counting against Sale, and we have a bat around.

That was Fun!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

All right May, let's put a zero on the scoreboard

off topic.

I have to think the Sox pitching coach is channeling Ron Burgundy right now.

 

"Boy, that escalated quickly. I mean, that really got out of hand, fast"

[Hrbowski]

Don't tell Chris Sale his ERA is up to 5.40, he will try to get into the Twins clubhouse if we do.

[USAFChief]

By the by...another fine job by guest game thread host Sample Size of One.

 

We now have a large enough sample size to say Sample Size of One's talent is not just a small sample size.

Quick TR...offer up Milone for Sale.  Look at the ERA!!1!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

I love how Bert is critical of May's delivery (could be rightful, I dunno) but May still gets the K

[JB_Iowa]

That's the way to follow up a big inning by your hitters!

[Richie the Rally Goat]

It's encouraging to see DanSan and May look like big leaguers

[Richie the Rally Goat]

Chased sale after 3! Nice

[USAFChief]

Just your routine ol' 5-6-3 PO.

[Mill1634]

How long til Vargas goes down?

Just got home and have not had a chance to catch up, but this was really...

 

as expected.

[Hrbowski]

May looking nice out there.

[Jerr]

Just got home and am disappointed in the shortness of this thread....really a football draft has that affect???  REALLY??  ?? A draft??????

Don't worry about me. I am supposed to be practicing my flute, but I got on my computer to look for some sheet music, and my web browser was open to TD. I couldn't resist.

 

(Somehow I feel as though my parents wouldn't consider that a legitimate excuse.)

CWS announcers are mad

That makes watching the rerun broadcast very enticing

[Platoon]

"She'll make point five past lightspeed. She may not look like much, but she's got it where it counts, kid. I've made a lot of special modifications myself."

giving it all she's got captain, but we need more lithium crystals!

There phrase is "Were a good team, we just play bad."

His next AB?

 

EDIT:  Or did you mean to the minors?

[stringer bell]

Regression to the mean. I like the Twins offense more than their defense and pitching, and they have been dreadful at the plate. The Whities' defense also really contributed--beyond the two errors, there was a passed ball, a bobbled cutoff and Eaton got leather on Mauer's drive.

[Buford_T_Justice]

Trevor - too many pitches, man. You have to finish this inning!

[Hrbowski]

The White Sox have more hits than the Twins.

[Buford_T_Justice]

Shoot. That's an unsatisfying W for May, assuming we can lock this down with our awesome bullpen.

[Cap'n Piranha]

Why can we never have everything all work at the same time?

[USAFChief]

Yesterday we learned a 4 run lead wasn't safe from the bullpen.

 

Let's see what they can do with a 7 run cushion.
