Our defense looks high schoolish far far too often.

Until that... lol nice work 7

Yes, a nice play by our best player.

[Twinsbar107]

Yes, a nice play by our best player.

No doubt, now hopefully we get some runs for a change

[Aggies7]

Nice hustle

[Aggies7]

I feel like Dick Halloranm from "the shining". "Is anyone here? Is anyone in here?"

[Aggies7]

Can anyone just move a runner over? Simple baseball stuff.

[jimmer]

Maddon, Baker, Showalter

[Twinsbar107]

Arcia always so animated. And well done boys. We always lead off innings with a double. Oh wait..

[Aggies7]

Lead off double, runner doesn't even move up. Zero runs again. Brutal.

Not like defense matters.

[Twinsbar107]

Hicks is coming alive for the yankees it seems

[Reider]

Of course, the day I rip the Twins for having Plouffe ahead of Sano, Park and Arcia in the line up, he hits a double and they all fail to drive him in.

Such is life as a twins fan in 2016

[Aggies7]

Haha yet another game we find ourselves behind.

[jimmer]

Batting Practice?

[spinowner]

Yikes, and re-yikes.

[Aggies7]

Total trash.

[Danchat]

Well, that's probably the game.

[USAFChief]

 

Haha yet another game we find ourselves behind.

Trailed in every game but one this year.  

[Aggies7]

I think we may be giving the '03 tigers a run.

[Pardon My Dinger]

What's next for Jose Berrios?

[USAFChief]

I've been pretty unimpressed with Berrios.  I thought he threw harder than this.

[Aggies7]

That says it all. Futility in every facet of the game.

[Aggies7]

I've been pretty unimpressed with Berrios.  I thought he threw harder than this.

Unimpressed, by a highly touted prospect, you say? Not possible here!

[Aggies7]

It's too bad that baseball America prospect ratings don't seem to translate to on-field success.

[David HK]

Ditto.  He also has the one and only RBI- so good on him.  

[Whammy]

Do other pitchers not make mistake pitches against the Twins, do the Twins not take advantage of mistake pitches they are given, or is there no such thing as a mistake pitch against the Twins?

[LaBombo]

Solo home run to one of the hottest hitters in baseball?   OK.

 

Han Solo and Chewbacca waving goodbye as the Millennium Falcon heads for the upper deck home run courtesy of a decidedly unhot .200 hitter?     Not OK.

No.

That braves-twins series is going to be fun.
