[John Kelsey]

 

The Twins RISP must be astronomically low at this point. I wonder if it's reached the .050 range?

 

They're 5 for 55 (.090)

CBU Update: 3-1 bad guys.

 

7th inning stretch

 

Time to sing "Take me away from this ball game"

[Aggies7]

 

Not on the Home Opener.

 

It's an unwritten rule out here in flyover.

 

Take it up on the Unwritten Rules thread.

I've never been big on unwritten rules. I've spent a good bit of money on mlb tv and satellite radio to watch and listen to this club. The fans have spent their money on tickets and what they are getting in return stinks. They have every right to let them have it.

[USAFChief]

They simply HAVE to send Mauer on that play.  No arm in center, down 2 late in the game.  You simply HAVE to be aggressive in that spot.

 

That's poor baseball right there.

[Aggies7]

The last few notes of take me out to the ballgame that the gentleman just played should be saved as the soundtrack of this season thus far.

[Darius]

Symbolism.

Question: How do I paste an image from "Paint"? Or from any image that I have saved?

I hate to disagree with you friend, but Mauer would have been hosed by 5+ feet. It was more likely (although nearly impossible) that Rosario would have brought him in than Joe would have beat that throw. He was meat.

Escobar's up!

Nobody wants to see your "Bremer" pics.

Why is your catcher bunting, down two?

[Aggies7]

That's comical. Simply horrendous baseball.

[Winston Smith]

OH MY *OD!

[jimmer]

WHY are we bunting and WHY can't he bunt?  Suzuki stinks.

[scottz]

Hey, just out of curiosity...since I'm dead and all, and time and space being a little confusing...can anyone tell me if we won yet?

[Aggies7]

 

Why is your catcher bunting, down two?

Because he can't hit?

[TheLeviathan]

Why is he batting at all?

[Foghorn Leghorn]

Keep booing. Maybe it will send a message. #FireTerry #FireMolitor

[Willihammer]

Gotta "make something happen"

[hybridbear]

Will the Twins send Buxton to try a SB here?

[Brock Beauchamp]

I'm really disappointed I missed the Suzuki bunt because I love bunting.

[Aggies7]

Buxton gets a hit?

[Dr. Evil]

This is a "streaky" team obviously. I can't believe more people haven't noticed that. Get ready to enjoy a hot streak baaaabeeeee!!! When it comes, it's gunna be sweet!

[jimmer]

Bremer trying to rationalize that ridiculous decision to bunt.

[Brock Beauchamp]

Buxton gets a hit?

He's actually has a pretty good game. Drilled the ball in his first PA, had the misfortune of hitting it right at somebody.

check back next week, K?

no reason to be disappointed in THAT 'bunt'.  It was a fly ball that went almost as far as when he swings all out.

[Danchat]

If Escobar and Mauer aren't hitting next to each other in future lineups, I'm going to get ticked off. They are the only two getting on consistently. They have to be batting next to each other until one of them stops hitting.

[Cap'n Piranha]

 

Why is he batting at all?

 

Because the rules of baseball dictate that all players playing in the field must also bat, except for the pitcher, unless you're playing in a national league park, in which case the pitcher must also bat.

Oh, I had the honor of catching the replay.
