THE OPPOSITE OF A BUNT! Wooohoo!

Can you please call for bunts from some other players? Kurt Suzuki should practice bunting, for example.

[spinowner]

 

Screw bunting.

Concur, except if the batter is helpless. Like a pitcher or Suzuki.

Concur.

Kinda unfair to pitchers, no?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Plouffe with the tag at first, helpin' Escobar out to end the inning.

 

Entering the bottom of the second, 2-0 Minnesota.

 

CBU

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Oh yeah, and Molitor won the challenge to overturn another call at first what was bang bang.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Am curious.

 

Some folk call Mr. Robinson "Sugar Shane."

 

Is there a story to that? I know i'm kinda living under a rock...

[ashbury]

Suzuki bunt Robinson over?

[Squirrel]

I'm calling for a bunt.

[Squirrel]

That works.

You're right. I apologize for being so mean-spirited.

[USAFChief]

 

Suzuki bunt Robinson over?

With one out??

Probably sounded like Sugar Ray Robinson to some wit in the dugout.

[howeda7]

Now you almost have to bunt...

[ashbury]

With one out??

I'd be satisfied if ChiTown called for it with two out.

[ashbury]

Loved the sour look on Girardi's face after Drew did what Drew does best.

[Squirrel]

Well, that didn't work.

5. Despite thinking I'd have the whole weekend off, I'm here at work. I wasn't supposed to be. But I am. And my thoughts are on work, and getting this project done. So, not the best game thread lead in ... but that's why the rest of you are here. To add and enhance. So have at it. Hopefully I'm home in time for the game.

Go Twins! Play ball!

 

Yeah, I'll need you to come in tomorrow also.

[spinowner]

Dozier should put down a bunt like Hicks'.

[spinowner]

CBU 2-0 Twins after 2.

[ashbury]

It's a little known statistic that Harmon Killebrew bunted successfully 573 times in his major league career.

[howeda7]

Why is Santana still on this team? Honestly, we have 3 SS's and he brings the least to the table.

Thanks!

 

My boxing knowledge is lacking, i guess.

[ashbury]

Thanks!

Hicks floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee.

Hicks floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee.

Down goes Sabathia!

[DiscGolfer]

Yankees will be saying "no mas" by the 7th

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Hicks floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee.

Ah yes. Bees battle their tails off when they sting.

[ashbury]

Yeah, I'll need you to come in tomorrow also.

Yes, go ahead. That'd be great.
