Game Thread: Twins @ White Sox, 4/9/17@1:10pm CST

[MNTSchmitt]

 

Hardest hit ball of the inning, but not a missle.

I know but the way they were calling it, they made it sound like it was a 500 ft upper deck bomb.

[stringer bell]

Dick is wrong. Gimenez doubled against Jones on Friday.

[MNTSchmitt]

Lets go boys! Little 8 inning rally!

[Mill1634]

If Buxton was still in the 3 hole he could sac bunt right here. 

[stringer bell]

Grossman with a hit vs. a tough righty.

[Mill1634]

The way Soto throws the ball back to the pitcher really pisses me off for some reason. 

[stringer bell]

Oh Joe!

[BoofBonser]

 

White Sox announcers are idiots. They said Soto's ball was annihilated. 

In all honesty Bert's and Dick's ages show frequently
But I still love them!

[Mauerpower]

Good contact by Joe. Right up the middle. As Bert says 100 xs a game,"it's a game of inches".

[spinowner]

KaBoom!

[operation mindcrime]

Woooooooooooooo!!!!!!

[Mill1634]

SANO-BOMB!!!!

[MNTSchmitt]

MIGGY IS A BEAST!

[Mauerpower]

Sano!

[glunn]

 

An insurance run or two would feel good.

Nice prayer, and a nice answer from Sano.

[Bark's Lounge]

MASTER BLASTER!!!

[Foghorn Leghorn]

And that folks is why you don't bench the terrible fielding Sano.... good god..crushed

[MNTSchmitt]

That was a big boy HR! Crushed that!

[Circus Boy]

 

An insurance run or two would feel good.

 

Your wish is granted. You have two more available.

[notoriousgod71]

The abominable Sanoman strikes again!

[MNTSchmitt]

I knew from his first swing when he missed that fastball, I was like oh please give him that pitch again, it's gonna be gone!

[Blake]

And yet again, teams are pitching to Sano. 

 

Wow. 

[glunn]

This game is far from over. Another insurance run would be good.

[stringer bell]

Jones wasn't effective for once. He's pretty lucky he only allowed 2.

[IndianaTwin]

Apologies for sounding redundant, but "You can put it on the boooooaaaaaarrrrrddddd, YESSS!!!!"

 

No, wait. No apologies.

[spinowner]

 

That was a big boy HR! Crushed that!

And just wait until he gets his man-muscles.

[Mauerpower]

Sano really like to hug and caress his teammates

[diehardtwinsfan]

 

Quick Virginia Tech fact:  A Hoakie is actually nothing.  Just a made up name by a student about 90 years ago.  He won $5 for coming up with a new cheer for the team.  He thought Hoakie was unique and funny.  

 

Now you know the rest of the story.  

 

Good day!  (Channeling my inner Paul Harvey)

 

Kind of like a Hoosier.

This is not a jinx - I'm not declaring victory prematurely. Merely, like I said above - feels good.

[Mill1634]

If the lead holds, I'd like to see Breslow get the 9th.
