Nice hitting Mr Mauer

[Aggies7]

Spoiler alert.

I don't believe that

[70charger]

 

Also, I'm absolutely loving this whole Mauer-gets-on-base-and-Kepler-homers-him-in thing. More of that, please.

 

I'm guessing the Indians don't like it so much.

[Danchat]

Kepler is finally getting some respect, as he draws an intentional walk.

[jimmer]

 

Ok this is starting to get ridiculous

You misspelled awesome

[S.]

I hope Sano mashes a home run to spite them for intentionally walking Kepler.

[Aggies7]

Not many rookies being walked in the 4th inning, a few months into their MLB career

[Jham]

Respecting the rookie. So Salazar goes to the dl the night after the trade deadline. Ouch.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Spoiler alert.

I could have sworn i heard something about hangovers...

 

What was it?

[ScrapTheNickname]

Of course there is the risk of carpal tunnel.

[dgwills]

Kepler is finally getting some respect, as he draws an intentional walk.

To bring up Sano with 2 outs no less.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

I don't believe that

It's like Edward Scissorhands...

 

Only these are Stein fingers.

[S.]

 

I hope Sano mashes a home run to spite them for intentionally walking Kepler.

Well, a double will work, I guess.

[Craig Arko]

Good for you, Miggy.

[Aggies7]

My word

[jimmer]

bad pitch selection.  what were they thinking?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

To bring up Sano with 2 outs no less.

Sano had something to say about that...

[Aggies7]

Of course there is the risk of carpal tunnel.

Carpal tunnel for whom?

[S.]

 

Carpal tunnel for whom?

Yes.

[Danchat]

The Twins have been simply tearing into two of the best pitchers in the AL this year. How is this the same team that got swept by the lowly Braves?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

My word

Bird?

[70charger]

Close!

[dgwills]

Sano had something to say about that...

They'd of been better off just letting Kep hit another home run

[Aggies7]

Those offensive statistics from June 25 are incomprehensible considering the start

[Blake]

I have to admit, that was awesome...walking Kepler to get to Sano? Talk about picking your poison.

[jimmer]

I like those numbers.  Not sure why such a random date to start from, but it's nice.

[Aggies7]

Bird?

Our studies have shown the bird to be equal to or greater than the word

[Craig Arko]

My wife and I spent New Year's Eve and Day in Munich in the mid-90's. What we found was all the major Public Houses were reserved for private parties.

 

We bought food and drink to bring back to our hotel at the train station, which we promptly dubbed 'BahnhofDale.'

Because baseball.

Because they picked the date with the best looking ones they could come up with.

 

Still nice though.
