Complete game!!!

 

Well done Santana & Santana.

[Squirrel]

YESSSSSS!!!!!!!

 

CHICKEN DINNERS FOR ALL!!!!!!

 

2-hit, CG SO.

[Aggies7]

 

of all the games to Not be televised....

gotta get that MLB tv package...I see all the games except for the locally blacked out ones.

[wsnydes]

 

Or that said complete game was only 6 innings.

That does take some luster off of it, doesn't it?

[Squirrel]

of all the games to Not be televised....

It was televised ... just not in your market.

[HitInAPinch]

9 Innings, 2 Hits, 0 Walks! 

[ashbury]

ESan!!!!

[bluechipper]

Great game today, Ervin... That's what I've heard anyways.

[HitInAPinch]

Ah, well that makes me happy again.  Thanks!

 

NO, WAIT  !  WHAAA ??

[ashbury]

9 Innings, 2 Hits, 0 Walks! 

Careful of the jinx.

If FNS is suddenly halting all Twins broadcasts, I may have to look into it.

The wrong impression is definitely not something I wish to convey on this topic.

The implication that anyone employed by the Twins is reading a game thread is already the wrong impression.

[Halsey Hall]

Good to see Santana, both of them, have good games.  And Ervin's 18th complete game.  Twins are starting to look better.

Twins employees can't read?   Gosh, that explains a lot.  Thanks.  

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Careful of the jinx.

And beware the jabberwock.

 

Tastes like chicken, though, from what i hear...

[ashbury]

Yes, that can be the only explanation for not taking advantage of the chance to gain the varied benefits of a game thread.

[ashbury]

And beware the jabberwock.

 

BRILLIG!

[Blake]

And the Twins winning record against the AL West continues.

 

The mind boggles.

[Blake]

 

 

BRILLIG!

Slithy toves. 

 

And if we're going down this road, did Santana wield the vorpal blade?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Love the complete game shutout! Gives the team something/someone to rally around and ups the ante for the other pitchers

 

Also, Juan Centeno

[Craig Arko]

It went snicker-snack.

[Craig Arko]

Love this kind of game. Wish I could have seen it. I suppose my office is considered in-market.

[Blake]

 

Ah, well that makes me happy again.  Thanks!

 

NO, WAIT  !  WHAAA ??

I may have to watch this game using the mlb.tv game archive.

 

Comes with the subscription. 

 

[gocgo]

We're only 16 games out of the wild card and only 5 games from being out of last place in the AL.  We are no longer the worst team in baseball!  Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh baby!

[SwainZag]

A lot of really good at bats today by Kepler, Grossman and even Eddie on his sacrifice fly.

 

Even with all the DSan hate, he had a great game. Drove the ball nicely twice and looked the part at SS.

 

Not much more to say about Ervin that the box score doesn't tell you. Extremely efficient, and got ahead in the count repeatedly.

[Mike Sixel]

Looked like a nice game all around. I like wins.....

[spinowner]

 

Yes, everyone on the team contributed something positive today.  

Including everyone on this site marshalling the team to victory!

[bird]

 

when Berrios was up (Jose Berrios, a prospect in the Twins system for those who aren't familiar) anyway when Berrios was up, I swear I saw Santana and Berrios sitting together constantly. It would be nice to hear more about that. If Berrios looks up to Santana that might be something to build on.(of course it might not, but it might)

 

 

As long as they weren't exchanging PED recipes....

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

As long as they weren't exchanging PED recipes....

Well, there's that.

[ashbury]

 I like wins.....
