Game Thread: Twins @ Reds, 6/30, 6:10 PM CDT

Hughsee, Hughsee, Hughsee...you can't even slip one by the pitcher?

[twinsnorth49]

That's not a hit you want to give up.

[twinsnorth49]

Ok, no harm, no foul.

[USAFChief]

 

I'm discovering new stuff here in Grand Rapids. 

 

Today it was a popcorn store... Last Week... A Brick and Mortar Store that sold nothing but Trophies. 

 

I cleaned that place out... Now I can show people that I'm good at everything. 

How do you ever find what you're looking for in Grand Rapids?

 

I go to a brick and morter store and you're selling trophies?  Where are the bricks?  At the trophy store?

[USAFChief]

 

Chris Sale broke the record for most strikeouts in the month of June.

I'm surprised he came to the plate enough times.

[Blake]

 

Helmetz come off?

Yes. Although, I think Bert pointed out that Gomez tends to lose his helmet in the batter's box rather than on the base paths.

[zchrz]

Nunez lost his helmet, drink!

[zchrz]

Lost it again, drink!

[drock2190]

Santana's 4th walk this year?

[USAFChief]

Danny Santana gets intentionally walked.

 

I'll brook no more arguments about the superiority of  "National League Baseball!!"

 

 

[glunn]

That was NOT a strike.  

[stringer bell]

Make up call two pitches later.

[Riverbrian]

 

That was NOT a strike.  

 

GLORM!!!

 

 

What's Goin On?

 

 

Now You Type "Another Layer for Winter" 

[USAFChief]

This half inning scares me.

[glunn]

 

GLORM!!!

 

 

What's Goin On?

 

 

Now You Type "Another Layer for Winter" 

 

That makes sense in Michigan.  Less so here.

 

 

[Riverbrian]

 

White Sox forum is next door.

 

I simply don't like the White Sox but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. 

 

And if you like the White Sox... Denigrate means put down. 

[glunn]

Now let's get a DP so I can go get dinner.

I think atrophy store is where you get a morter bored...

 

Not entirely sure about brick... maybe at the gym? (Working out until you're brick ab racked...)

[sampleSizeOfOne]

The organist was playin' the Addams family theme.

 

Are they following this thread?

[glunn]

Nice shift!  Dinner here I come.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Now let's get a DP so I can go get dinner.

Eat well!

 

(Not a double play, but the inning's over anyway)

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I have to leave for Istanbul in 2 hours. I've been awake since 4 am. Do I drug myself for the flight, or stay awake?

Travel safe!

 

I'd bring something to read, even if i didn't end up readin' it. But i doubt that's much help...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Runner on 3rd...

 

What do we do now?

[clank2000]

I don't see so good. Is that Dusty Baker managing them Reds?

[Hrbowski]

Plouffe tried his hardest to kill another rally.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

I don't see so good. Is that Dusty Baker managing them Reds?

120 pitches and counting for their starter. And that guy hasn't gotten a call all night.

 

Update-- Descalfini's night is finally done.

[USAFChief]

Glynn with the kick save!!1!

 

 

[USAFChief]

This half inning makes them nervous.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

What a bizarre game, but it'll work.

 

 

SUZUKI !!!

[Puckett34]

Kick save and a beauty by Glynn
