Calms the nerves ....

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Kind of torn here...I want Colabello to do well, just not that well against the twins.

[JB_Iowa]

 

 

Twins take a 3-2 lead into the top of the 9th.

 

Pray.

[drock2190]

Boyer coming in.

 

 

Buckle up. Donaldson at bat is going to be huge.

[JB_Iowa]

Boyer will pitch the 9th.

 

Really Pray.

[stringer bell]

Worrisome that Perkins is unavailable today. He had a day off on Thursday and the velocity was fine yesterday.

[Circus Boy]

Did they say why no Perk?

[NoCryingInBaseball]

Ba-da ba-da ba-da That's all folks!!!!!

[JB_Iowa]

TWINS WIN!  TWINS WIN!

 

 

[USAFChief]

Winnah.

Writers say 3 out of 4 days.  Only the off day, off.

[hotshot031]

Boyer the Destroyer will not get credit for a save? Kind of weird....That has to be wrong.....

[USAFChief]

Feels like we stole one. I'll take it.

[hotshot031]

They stole one last night. It evens out.

[stringer bell]

Good job, team and TD.  I'm going golfing!

[Bark's Lounge]

Initially, that is how I was feeling. I think it is the PTSD from the last 4 seasons. This team can win these games and we took it fair and square.

[mikecgrimes]

Sounds like pinto got the call tweeting I'm back.

[JB_Iowa]

I love that they aren't getting into losing mode.  Come right back at 'em.

[mikecgrimes]

We've probably got more then our share of one run wins but then again despite the final score last night was pretty much a one run loss. Good teams find ways to win.

[Craig Arko]

My new pillow and I found it a gratifying victory. Thought Dozier might try for the ISTP home run.

[Brock Beauchamp]

The bullpen pitched 3.1 innings, struck out four, walked none, and Perkins didn't pitch.

 

Isn't that some kind of rule violation?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I thought you were doing the half innings!  And today I only update when the score changes.

 

Just felt like playing with the fictional Circus Boy.

You were thinking things through. I think i was just doin' 'em whenever i felt like it.

 

And then i nodded off something serious. I got a lot of game thread to catch up on, and i just vaguely remember that the Twins won...

 

I assume it wasn't part of some strange dream, but i wouldn't be too sure yet...

 

Yup. Now i'm happy having read to the end. I can go back to sleep now that all is right with the world.

Just 18 pitchers last night though after a day off.  He threw 20 pitchers Wed after 21 Tue.   This sounds more like a case of bruised ego (day-to-day.)

Or more of a case of don't trust him today. 

[Brock Beauchamp]

Or more of a case of don't trust him today.

I'd say it's a pretty simple case of "guy got roughed up last night, don't need to put him on the mound for the fourth time in five days" move. Give Glen a day to rest and shake it off.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Will i get the last word in before the thread is archived?

 

Wait and see...

 

It is good to know the bullpen can handle themselves for a game without Perk.

 

A chance for someone to step up, try a new role, learn something.
