If Buxton were leading off that would have been his dinger instead of Dozier's.

[Riverbrian]

Jeez... MLBTV has a delay... I had a notification on my IPad that Dozier homered 2 pitches before I saw him hit it.

[Riverbrian]

Couch in Michigan???

Yep... It's like sitting in a giant hand (reference to the shape of the state)

Dozier hit a home run?  

 

way to spoil it for those of us on AZ time.

Yeah, that happens.

A hand wearing a mitten.

if buxton were leading off it woulda been a grand slam.

[Squirrel]

Cmon, keep it going! I don't wanna wait 'till the 3rd inning to see Bux's 1st at bat!

[stringer bell]

Welcome back Brian. I haven't caught much of the game threads, it's the first comments I've seen from you in a while.

[USAFChief]

Eduardo!

[spinowner]

So why is Nunez DHing? That's why.

[stringer bell]

OMG, Nunez got a double and didn't lose his helmet.

[Riverbrian]

A hand wearing a mitten.

Yeah... You'd think it would be warmer.

[Riverbrian]

Welcome back Brian. I haven't caught much of the game threads, it's the first comments I've seen from you in a while.

I might be comment backed up after all this time.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Eduardo!

He has indeed been designated for hitting.

 

Just beyond the reach of their left fielder.

 

Now i bet he wishes he had a mitt a little closer to the size of Michigan...

 

Anyway, 2-0 Twins as Plouffe scampers home.

[Craig Arko]

Doctor Buxton can treat that condition.

[formerly33]

Hey Riverbrian, I missed you so much I had collected data to impersonate you and see if Chief mistook me for you as well as JB. Oh well, this is better.

[stringer bell]

The first Buxton at-bat will be in the second inning.

[Craig Arko]

The first Buxton at-bat will be in the second inning.

And with any luck, so will the second.

[nicksaviking]

A Buxton debut and Mauer still batting third are a couple of decent comment laxatives.

[Ultima Ratio]

 

The first Buxton at-bat will be in the second inning.

Only if there is a second inning.

[Craig Arko]

Hit it to center...

[USAFChief]

RB (11,000 posts and counting) is nothing if not tight lipped.

[stringer bell]

Camera angles. That 0-2 pitch looked like a strike on TV.

[USAFChief]

Y'know, I've watched every inning since his call up, and for my money, so far Buxton's impact on the Twins has been negligable.  

[Riverbrian]

So I decided to buy a Mango... Never bought a Mango before.

 

I'll just say this... It's not like biting into an apple.

[stringer bell]

Here he comes!

[USAFChief]

Didn't know they grew mangos in Michigan.  

[GCTF]

Looks like another first round pick that won't work out for the Twins.

[Squirrel]

Damn Texas broadcast! Sheeeesh!
