So we've waited through four long years for the Twins to be playing meaningful September games.     All this waiting...Reminds me of my HS prom.   I wanted to rent a tux, so I went to the tux rental p

I'm ok with the swinging bunt call, but I think he should have had Escobar hit the ball another 355 feet, so, bad call.

I'm outta Likes... I ran out. 

 

Is there any point in going on? 

 

Well I think a lot of people come to the game threads just to hear your sharp analysis of the game and your thoughtful observation or advice on the rare occasions you go off topic from the game, and would be disappointed if you left.

Man, if I was a Royals fan, I'd be awfully salty about that missed call right now. :)

Their magic number of 13 would make that salt go away rather quickly

He did make the play though.

I don't want to quibble, but that play he made could have ended our starting catchers season (sounds like he will be ok fortunately)

 

Good result, terrible execution.

Bremer needs to get off that missed strike three. We've already seen a KC batter get two strike threes before flying out.

years later his son said something almost as poetic "That is absolutely disgusting! I'm sorry you all had to witness that" - buck on randy moss

You can see it again for all I care.

To be fair, that was definitely a strike. But the royals can deal with a bad break or two :)

The thing is, over the course of a game, about 25-50 pitches (I'm guessing) are called strikes that aren't strikes and vice versa. Unless they go to a computerized umpiring system everyone has 20-20 hindsight and it must be tough to be an ump.

He's still day to day, though, and that can matter when things are this tight.

Or Joe Buck if you're into copying things your dad made famous.

Joe takes a lot of flack, but his "we will see you tomorrow night" homage to his dad was pretty classy and awesome IMO
