That curve is pretty

Can someone please tell me the percentage of games this season that Mauer has gotten on base?

100%

Brutal game for Soto back there... geez.

I quite literally could not watch a full year of Soto throwing the ball back to the pitcher.  It's so awkward it looks like it hurts.  He falls forward onto his hands and knees with a short arm lob that must be the result of some sort of confidence issue.

100%

Did you do the research?

Gotta hope Pinto is better than that.

11-2, if we can't hang on Mollie should be fired.

I don't think he is.

Nice job by Pressly!

Uh, you mean the pitching coach?

No, I think "Mollie" is a nickname for Paul Molitor, the Twins Manager.

((25 - number he didn't get on base)/25) X 100.

Did Pefrey get hurt? 2 runs in 3 1/3 innings is hardly a reason to pull him

[formerly33]

We are now tied for posts, Bowsk. We're too much alike for our own good. I think we should collaborate sometime and do a game thread together.

[Hrbowski]

I saw this homer live.

[Circus Boy]

In my dream Plouffe hit five HRs. But I'll take one HR and five RBI.

[Mill1634]

Nice play

Guessing you weren't watching the 4th.

Hawk and Stone are literally slobbering all over themselves praising Plouffe's defense at third this series.
