Nice try.  Curious why Twins didn't challenge...

 

He slid too soon and looked clearly out.

[Aggies7]

Seats would be getting hot if this were anywhere but Minnesota, where mediocrity is acceptable.

[Jham]

Awesome...

 

[NorthwestTwinsFan]

A Leadoff walk.  Let me guess how this ends...

Seats don't get hot six games into the season.

You can't make an out on the bases as the winning run in extra innings.

That's not in the official rule book.

Unwritten rule.

Baseball is a game of streaks, trends, runs etc., right? This current streak is just like a marathon runner losing control of their bowels one mile into the twenty-six mile race.

So you're saying there's still time to clean ourselves off and get back in this thing?

[nicksaviking]

Unwritten rule.

Which chapter?

[hybridbear]

Two base error. That's the game!

[HitInAPinch]

wow............

 

[Hrbowski]

I saw that coming.

[Jham]

This is just super.

 

[howeda7]

Shocking.

[OrangeKicks]

 

Which chapter?

Unwritten rules have no table of contents, so I'm not sure.

[Ultima Ratio]

Put a tent over it!

They should be. They would in other places where an emphasis is placed on winning.

Anything can happen. Like a team moving their best starting pitcher to the bullpen for Mike Pelfrey then keeping him in the bullpen since they were too cheap to attempt to sign other relievers.

[ScrapTheNickname]

"We will see you tomorrow night!"

[twinsnorth49]

So I guess the parade is cancelled then?

 

Good thing I didn't book the day off.

[Darius]

Is there a reason why they're not putting him on for a shot at a DP?

[Hrbowski]

No they wouldn't.

[mikeee]

Maybe he'll get a couple strikeouts.

But now he gets to start what is essentially a new game to start the 10th. We'll see if he can make it out of the 10th.

But it could be time to crack into the booze....

The guys in the bullpen are young, they'll come along eventually. At least that's what Terry says.

[formerly33]

It strikes me as somewhat ironic that Missouri's state animal is a moose when they've probably never seen one.

[HitInAPinch]

That's what we needed!

Which chapter?

 

Get out of here.  You know that you don't make an out on the bases when you're the go ahead run.
