Not even the 1988 Baltimore Orioles, who started 0-21?

They missed it by that much.

[Aggies7]

Minnesota teams only set playoff records by STARTING GREAT and missing out, cmon folks.

If I continue watching this game, my television is not long for the earth.

Can you retype this, so that it shows up only on the outside edges of my monitor?

 

I can't see anything through the hole in the middle.

[LaBombo]

 

It's pretty rad how the Twins' #2 hitter is hitting damned near .400 and has 2 RBI.

 

Not smelling the RBI's.    Redmond unavailable, so Adrien Brody is coming onboard as an 'RBI olfactory consultant'...

Unfortunately, there are 154 games left in the season, and I seem to enjoy watching the Twins.

[alskntwnsfn]

This team doesn't deserve walk up music right now.

[mickeymental]

twins can't get a break. they don't even get to face their favorite batting-practice pitcher this series: chris sale.

[Aggies7]

Tomorrow's gate giveaway should be rope and a footstool

Never do math in public.

Fans, please continue to boo this team off the field! Twins high ups need to be sent a message! #FireRyan#FireMolitor

Reusse said that the reason Sano is striking out so much is because his bat is slow, Sano came to camp heavy over 280 pounds and un-prepared, did very little conditioning this winter? I'm guessing after a pretty successful half season and a lot of success filming TV commercials and being treated like Royalty by the Twins marketing staff that a few things went to his head a little bit. He is talented guy so I think he will turn it around but this is not a good start to the season. 

I may have to slightly recant my criticism of Reusse. Not really, but he might have a point. Because Sano swung and missed on a ball right down broadway. Never mind broadway, that pitch was right down the two yellow median stripes of broadway.

Dick Bremer quote of the game........."Trevor May - part of a very reliable Twins bullpen".  

 

I really want whatever Dick's smokin'

[Halsey Hall]

So much for May out of the pen.

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

Never do math in public.

Good catch.

The best catch, perhaps, of the day.

[Aggies7]

Remember when May was the heralded twins bullpen arm?\

 

And Rosario completely misplays that ball.

 

0-7

 

We'll try again tomorrow

[Platoon]

Um, Twins? I'm kind of dead over here on this marble slab. You could maybe pick it up a little. I'd like to have my self-sacrifice be worth it.

you have just touched on several of the negative issues dealing with being the guest of honor at a sacrifice!

[notoriousgod71]

 

Hawk might be guilty of a little homer bias too. Just a tad.

 

Oh he is completely biased but you can tell if the sox are winning or losing because he is either beaming or bitching.

 

With Dick he tries to make it seem like the Twins are the best thing in the world no matter how they are playing.

[Blake]

 

This team doesn't deserve walk up music right now.

How about "Taps?" or the "Funeral March?" Dirge?

[Aggies7]

 

So how many times has Dick Bremer touted the awesomeness of the Target Field experience, and the new Party area in center field. Pizza Luce anyone? 

With concession lines as short as I assume they're going to be, it should be a great experience.

If Twins management really needs booing to understand the team isn't good, I'm going to guess they see every booing fan as just another chump who shelled out a wad of cash.

[jimmer]

I don't know what's wrong with May so far.  

[ScrapTheNickname]

What shall we try next game if a human sacrifice didn't work today?

[Foghorn Leghorn]

Why are we still putting May out there? #FireMolitor

[Aggies7]

 

I don't know what's wrong with May so far.  

Seems as though April is the bigger problem.

April!

so if we *do* have a close game tomorrow, May and Pressly are used up and it's on Jepsen and Perk.

Clearly they need the booing! Otherwise Ryan would've been gone a while ago!

Keep booing!!

This or listening to Dave St Peter tout the "Target Field experience" and brag about the food. The two most nauseating things about Twins baseball Bremer and St Peter bragging,  besides the Twins being 0-7. 

 

I love the pompous arrogance of this organization masked by an "Aw, shucks" Midwestern demeanor.

[Aggies7]

"May does what he can after the leadoff walk" THAT HE ISSUED, Dick!

Nunez pinch hitting for our "big" FA signing.
