Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Hey Diddle Diddle... Right down the Middle. Duffey?
jimmer Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Ah Duffey...a cornerstone of our rotation...
Hosken Bombo Disco Community Moderator Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Twins pitchers Attacking the Strike Zone since 1995 How can an opposing team's hitters possibly prepare against such a pitching approach?
Halsey Hall Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 One rubber arm can't make it thru 4 innings.
Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 I knew the Tigers would come back, I just didn't think it'd TAKE SO LONG... FTFY
snepp Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 So, um, yeah. I'm going to walk away again for a minute or two.
USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 I think that last pitch was about half a cm off the exact middle of the plate.Inner half, or outer half?
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Inner half, or outer half?Outer, as Bert has pointed out 97 times, Duffey hasn't pitched inside all night.
Danchat Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Yeah, I'm thinking Duffey's long term position is as a reliever.
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 3 and 2/3rds? Mollie is about 3 innings too early.
jimmer Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Yeah, I'm thinking Duffey's long term position is as a reliever.I'm thinking his long term position is at the counter of a Burger King. Maybe the fry station
Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 So here I am, innocently flipping through the channels, and I see it... You're not fooling me, North. Isn't it convenient North chose today of all days to write a game thread?? Maybe he saw into the future, and knew the Twins would have a lead at one point in the game.... OR, maybe he needed anything to distract him from the World Cup of Hockey! Feelimg nervous about the Russians yet?
USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Yeah, I'm thinking Duffey's long term position is as a reliever.
Pardon My Dinger Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Dozier: home run champ. It's a lock...is something I think is true but shouldn't havesaiditgolldangit!
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Remember that lead we had in the top half? Good times, good times my friends.
wavedog Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Who saw that coming - took all of 5 minutes to lose that lead. Are we throwing games for money?
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Dozier: home run champ. It's a lock...is something I think is true but shouldn't havesaiditgolldangit!Sure, go ahead, light the last nice thing we have on fire .
LaBombo Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Hopefully that doesn't happen this Saturday. It's the season finale for me writing game threads! Worrying about letting down game thread Twins fans this season is like worrying if starving life raft survivors will be upset that the ribeyes aren't grass fed beef.
USAFChief Twins Daily Contributor Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 We've had some Saturday Afternoon games where I was basically replying to myself. If I recall correctly, you set a personal record for "most likes" in one of those.
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Who saw that comingRhetorical question, right?
Platoon Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Tigers announcers can't believe the quality of pitches that hitters get these days, in their day throwing pitches like that to a guy like Dozier would result in a fine. I keep watching it and thinking it, and not believing it. In his first AB he got one in and up also and missed it.. It seems odd. But good for Doze, they keep throwing him his pitch, and he just keeps hitting it.

twinssporto Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 We've had some Saturday Afternoon games where I was basically replying to myself. It's kind of like working as a sole proprietor and scheduling meetings with yourself.
Pardon My Dinger Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Just give him the MVP already! Come on...please?!
twinsnorth49 Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Author Posted September 15, 2016 Dozier....of course.
Riverbrian Old-Timey Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 RBI Doubles from Dozier are kinda boring now.
wavedog Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Yep, that was sarcasm. Thought we might hold them to only 2 runs but figures we lost the lead. Nice to see Dozier come back and tie it!
LaBombo Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Who saw that coming Yes. http://podaholics.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/world-of-abbott-and-costello-compilation-film-whos-on-first-skit.jpg
Platoon Verified Member Posted September 15, 2016 Posted September 15, 2016 Yes. And your post likely ruined any chance we had for the least post in a thread........ Whoops
