That's the slide of a 250 pound white guy.

[stringer bell]

Not much control for Pelfrey this inning.

It cost him at least a run.

[jimbo92107]

Gattis popped up into the air. Feet off ground with Dozier's glove still touching his knee. Out.

[Craig Arko]

Eddie gets another assist; now he has to hit another triple.

Yeah... but with the strange twist of getting airborne as well. 

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

I was thinking Jim Palmer!

Me, too.

[twinsnorth49]

I'm not sure what's more impressive, the power of Rosario's throws or the ridiculous accuracy, or that he does both at the same time.

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

 

I dont know but I'm guessing it's near "Maggie's Farm" in a "Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat". 

Strike one.

A Simple Twist of Freight.

[Craig Arko]

A Simple Twist of Freight.

Conservation of momentum.

[twinsnorth49]

How is defensive shifting in baseball at all like hockey again Roy?

Can you say 8th Inning relief pitcher??!!!! lol

[twinsnorth49]

This ump is all over the map, good grief.

[twinsnorth49]

Dozier missed that mistake, dang it.

[howeda7]

This game's going to get Pelfrey'd in a hurry.

Mostly done i think. I guess some people were like, "look, the Beatles!"

If you want to see really nice wall murals go to Ashland WI, the whole downtown is full of some really nice ones.

[stringer bell]

Not looking good. Pelfrey, like Gibson and Santana, can't afford to be behind in so many counts.

[Platoon]

You can have a large strike zone, or you can have a small strike zone, but when you have both at the same time, THATS when you get in trouble!

[drock2190]

Oh look another crappy starting pitcher performance.

 

I bet the Twins don't even have 3 hits in them tonight, let alone 3+ runs.

[twinsnorth49]

JHC, he finally gets ahead of someone and hangs a pitch like that?! So Pelfrey, and some people wonder why others don't like him.

[Platoon]

No matter what, I like to watch Gomez run!

I just aged like 5 years that inning.

[twinsnorth49]

 

I just aged like 5 years that inning.

If I let games pitched by Pelfrey age me I'd be 1562 years old by now.

 

It's easier when you have zero expectations.

[Riverbrian]

Twins just got to find a way to get some base runners

[twinsnorth49]

Mike Pelfrey 4th innings.

I'm not one to complain about Umps... But the Strike Zone does seem to be inconsistent in a very consistent manner. 

[twinsnorth49]

Way to go Joe! No, no no.

There Ya Go... now get some more

It's the noneuclidean geometry right around the plate.
