The Red Sox are on another planet from the twins

What is the classic sense of the word "badly"? Sometimes Roy speaks over my head, I think.

[LaBombo]

FSN Apology Tour 2016 continues with this Smalley classic:

 

"Duffey isn't pitching badly in the classic sense of the word 'badly' ".

[Boom Boom]

Smalley thinks Duffey is pitching well.

Seems as though we have bad Duffey tonight. Very bad Duffey

Really badly Duffey

I still have tickets to see this horror show in person on Sunday.

[Don Walcott]

According to Dick, DSA will conduct an interview with Dick. Is Bremer a candidate for GM now?

Fenway's cool in a way that only historical parks can be, and if nothing else it can be an interesting place for some scoreboard watching...

There's no way Duffey is still on the mound by Sunday.

 

This game might not be over, though.

Duffey is certainly stinking it up tonight. His fastball must look like a beach ball to the Red Sox hitters.

[HitInAPinch]

Bremer:  "It could have been worse".  So this is good?

[HitInAPinch]

Nobody was warming up??

[LaBombo]

And so we bid adieu to yet another victim of the Wheel of Futility...

For what it's worth, it seemed to me that after some Impressionist and Cubist Bad early on, Duffey finished the night on a more classical Bad note.

Duffey has failed to reach the 6th inning in 5 of 16 starts

[HitInAPinch]

Tonkin just fooled them.  He threw strikes

Would we be able to tell the difference between warmed up vs not based on the results?

[Aggies7]

So are we going to have a base runner tonight orrrr?

Apparently not, if Tonkins is pitching.

[Aggies7]

Ut oh

[LaBombo]

When the Twins are playing well I don't mind Smalley so much, which is to say that I can't stand him any more.

 

Sometimes he almost seems like he's teaching a class that shows the wrong way to talk about yourself.

 

[HitInAPinch]

Neal Ramirez wasn't released?  Why not?

[LaBombo]

 

Ut oh

Chase? Is that you?

Of course the German rookie is the first to reach

[HitInAPinch]

whew....

[HitInAPinch]

V  !

[Aggies7]

whew....

I had a bad feeling we could have witnessed history tonight. I don't recall a twins team ever consistently knocking around a knuckler baller

[Aggies7]

Lol Vargas is possibly the slowest person alive

[HitInAPinch]

We're catching up!

[HitInAPinch]

Um, Vargas:  you ain't Mookie Betts....
