I like seeing great contact by Hicks. 

[Mike Sixel]

Wait, dozier was bunting? was it a sacrifice, or try for hit. If a sacrifice, Molitor needs some more Goin time.....

[USAFChief]

 

There's something wacky going on in that outfield today. 

That never happened in the dome.  

[DaveW]

Bunt call is.... ummmm.... interesting, there.

 

5th inning. Tie game. One of your better hitters who also happens to be prone to strike outs and apparently not very good at bunting.

 

Yeah, let's get two strikes on that guy.

not to mention anything pulled is going to at least go to the warning track anyways.

[70charger]

Nice to see that the Pirates can make mistakes too.

[Ultima Ratio]

It's almost as if this team is trying to make mistakes.  Wow.

[Gibby]

 

Honestly, the jack links jerky commercials are the most unfunny, unimaginative series ever.

 

And they just keep running with it.

 

 

  That's all we had! was Jack Links jerky commercials and we were damn glad to have them.

[DaveW]

I'm still flabbergasted that the bunt was called there. What the **** is Molly thinking?

Can they send managers to the minors for some fine-tuning?

[DaveW]

Bad Santa (na)

[Aggies7]

ugly ugly game.

[70charger]

Well that was awful. But hey, we've got Boyer coming in to stop the bleeding, so....

 

#ohwait

[Aggies7]

Yep, that's it for me.

[DaveW]

Ball game.

[Ultima Ratio]

Really sharp, really crisp baseball out there.  Like a well-oiled machine.

[Aggies7]

You know it's pretty rough when they play like dung even at home.

[Tibs]

well this team might be done

[Ultima Ratio]

Put a tent over this circus!  Jeebus!

[70charger]

Was it just me or did McCutchen just get the world's worst inside the park home run?

[USAFChief]

Well that got out of hand quickly.  I mean that really escalated.

[DaveW]

"We act like assclowns, we dance"

[Kwak]

Rosario might not  be an OF of the future!

[DaveW]

Might be candle light vigil time for the Twins 2015 playoff chances.

[DaveW]

That is three just awful mistakes by Rosario in the OF today, I'm not a big fan of benching young guys after a mistake, but good lord, he made Delmon Young look like a gold glover with that crap today.

[Aggies7]

That bridgewater kid is looking pretty good though, huh guys?

[70charger]

"We've seen some weird things here today."

 

Yes, Dick. Yes we have.

[savvyspy]

At least its been established beyond a reasonable doubt that the Twins are sellers at the deadline. Did that ever turn around in a hurry.

[70charger]

 

Well that got out of hand quickly.  I mean that really escalated.

 

I saw that. Brick killed a guy!

 

Did you throw a trident?

[USAFChief]

 

That bridgewater kid is looking pretty good though, huh guys?

Gophers open against TCU in like, 5 weeks or something, too.

 

Couple more gut punches I'm setting myself up for.

[USAFChief]

How you know Shane Robinson shouldn't be on your team:  they bring a LHer out of the pen to face him.  

And he K's.
