Sano walks???

[spinowner]

 

What's the deal with the Chisox catcher?  Don't know if he's falling over or trying out for the Chicago shot put team.  His throws back to the mound are embarrassing.   Which I'm OK with  

See last night's thread.

[Squirrel]

Damn it, Mauer. Why the **** are you swinging at the first pitch?

Anyone else notice the black guy in the first row above the third base dugout in a nascar shirt, sitting next to a white guy in a white formal jacket? Just don't see either of those things at a baseball game very often.

Hit it well but right into the OF shift. Hit that to RF and the bases clear.

Is it just me or does Saladino look like a young Genghis Kahn?

[Pardon My Dinger]

Bert's Running Mejia Pronunciation count:

Haha yes.

Chief is probably the only one who can answer that.

[diehardtwinsfan]

Just got to keep the WS at 3 till the 7th inning...

Or possibly Snoopy's brother, Spike?

Good call.

Jake Petricka, Savage's own.

[BoofBonser]

Twins getting into wayyyy too many 2 strike counts 

[BoofBonser]

Bert say he loves the way Soto throws the ball back lol

[diehardtwinsfan]

Nice start, now let's score some runs.

[Pardon My Dinger]

Twinds wind! Twinds wind!

[diehardtwinsfan]

CASTRO!!!!!

[alskntwnsfn]

Polanco ends up at SECOND base. You watching that Sano? They should award a hit for taking the extra base.

[Danchat]

With that HR, the Twins are now 1/17 for RISP in this series.

[HitInAPinch]

Here we go!!

[diehardtwinsfan]

Sigh... Buxton...

[alskntwnsfn]

Dick: And it's not even the seventh inning yet.

 

Well played.

[alskntwnsfn]

I'm sorry, but how is it the game's top rated propsect almost instantly becomes the league's worst hitter? The Twins FO and coaching staff must fix this, or frankly, go down in the hall of shame. It's mostly on Buxton himself, obviously, but history won't remember Ryan, Moliter, and Falvine kindly if they don't get this fixed.

Besides Vanimal?

I don't know about Vanimal, but this beast is sleeveless in what I'm guessing is low 50s at best. Pure sox fan, topped off with a black white sox beanie. I'm not kidding, the arms are like a he-man action figure.

[gocgo]

Halwys not afraid to go inside and challenge hitters.

I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers.

My Daddy just gave me the keys to his truck.  He said it's much easier to rundown people that way....

Reminds me of an idea I had for a video game: Get That Cat! You drive a monster truck slowly through a residential neighborhood. Suddenly a cat runs across the street in front of you - game on! Cat flies though backyards, alleys, etc. You crash through everything in your monster truck, trying to... Get That Cat! 

 

For some reason I never got the funding for that project...

Let's examine this more thoroughly.

There have been many games with a much worse premise made and sold.
