[Aggies7]

Losing 9 winning 4 and losing ? is not a recipe for success.

[ScrapTheNickname]

 

Well, since the Arcia error was followed by a HR, it mattered not.  All them runners woulda scored anyway.  They're all earned.

I was too discouraged to think about it. Thanks.

[Ultima Ratio]

 

Boyer is warming up. The Twins may have a chance!

I like how you're stirring the embers.

[Riverbrian]

 

Write him a second letter.

 

Dear Oswaldo,

 

Just wanted to write another letter... Just to let you know that your haircut looks nice but it's hard to tell with your batting helmet on. Next time up... don't use the helmet. 

 

Oh... AND QUIT TRYING TO HIT THE BALL 600 FEET. We'd like to win this game. 

 

YOU &^$*#&(%*^_)(

[David HK]

After those Arcia swings, reminded me to check if the WILD were playing today.  Well, back to work for me.   Try again tomorrow.

Too long, didn't read.

Not direct enough.

[USAFChief]

LOL.  I'm not sure I can blame Fein, but he forgot the guy on first, who singled off him.

 

I'd probably wanna forget too.

 

Bleeping craptastic baseball.  Craptastic.  Not running out ground balls, swing at balls/watch strikes, errors, guys getting running starts off your pitcher.  Being short talent is one thing.  Short attention span?  Bah!

 

WTF, Molitor?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Great, Arcia took the AB into the field with him. Wow.

Yeah he has all night. Not good. Learning experience I hope!

[Aggies7]

What a goal for the wild

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

2-1 Wild again!

[Blake]

I think the Twins may get to bat in the next couple of years. I think. What can I say? I'm an optimist.

Dear ElRiverBrianoh

 

No Habla the Englais.

Nah, nah, nah, get that Wild stuff off my thread!

[Riverbrian]

It made it a shorter trot home for the base runners.

 

I don't think we should make anything easier for Brewers. 

 

 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Whatta ya do with a Sano with three balls?

 

Walk him and pitch to the Arcia.

 

HEY-yo!

Hate the ragging on Arcia, but like the joke.

[tobi0040]

At 9-4 i turn on the Soprano's.

 

Take care

[Danchat]

Wait, it's Boyer! There's still hope here!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Tonkin and Pressly need to forget today happened.

From the looks of it, Tonkin, Pressly, and about 8 other guys.

[jimbo92107]

It's important now for the Twins to realize they still have time to chip away. All they need is 4 runs in this inning, then 3 in the next inning, and they're right back in this game.

Uh, butterfly effect?  Quantum theory?  Groundhog Day?

Not if you factor in the bottom half of this inning.

[USAFChief]

Cause it was a hit and an error.

 

Due to the rules of scorekeeping, since the batter would have been on base when the HR was hit, thus the runs are earned.

 

It doesn't make the error any more palatable, but it does make all the runs earned.

[Linus]

This was a really poor game. I would have a hard time not ripping if I was the manager.

I agree but I'm getting a checked out vibe.

 

 

Well Maybe that's because I've checked out. 

[Pardon My Dinger]

Does milwaukee realize that it's not mandatory for all stadium music to be from the 80s?

In Wisconsin, though, it's the law.

[jimbo92107]

Okay, now it's time to panic.

Chief is Right

 

And I can't remember the last time I typed those 3 words in that order.
