Swing the bat, Sano. Took a few decent cuts but then fooled. 

[ashbury]

Yes, do keep up, would you?

Would I? No. Obviously.

[hybridbear]

DanSan is a defensive upgrade over Grossman in RF lol

At least Buxton is getting fastballs now.

Some of those were what Swarzak considers his breaking pitches.

[Bark's Lounge]

Take a seat Genghis Kahn.

[stringer bell]

No Pressly? DanSan gets RF?

1-0 game, they might regret taking one of there better offensive players out of the game.

[notoriousgod71]

Give it up, Dick.

 

This is still a terrible rotation. Santana is not going to end the season with an ERA under 1; Santiago is not going to end the ERA with his current ERA. And you are now touting Mejia?

 

 

[Jerr]

 

Yes

And posting it on a game thread? I don't care if , it is Twins related......    

[Jerr]

Lets get out of this, Twins!

[Aggies7]

Scoring 1 run is generally not a winning strategy

[hybridbear]

Stupid Belisle!!!

[Squirrel]

Oh ****.

[snepp]

Blech.

[stringer bell]

Good play by DanSan or should he have tried to catch it?

[Pardon My Dinger]

Gotta hand it to Dantana on that one.

[notoriousgod71]

Buxton throws as well as he hits.

[DrNeau]

Poor throw there, Bux.

You don't want Dantana gettIng overly ambitious out there.

[GP830]

That Buxton throw was...pretty bad?

[ashbury]

Revere didn't get a very good throw off from CF on that play to home.

[hybridbear]

 

Poor throw there, Bux. 

I agree. A good throw would've had the runner out at home. He didn't take the right route to the ball to set up his body in position to make a strong throw.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Just say you prefer to be standing.

Right now i think i'll sit.

 

And catch up fhe game thread.

 

Been standing most of the afternoon.

[Aggies7]

Buxton throws as well as he hits.

If that were the case he would have launched it to minnetonka

[glunn]

Sano saves the bacon. Now we need a run.

[Bark's Lounge]

 

1-0 game, they might regret taking one of there better offensive players out of the game.

I actually take that back. DanSan made a play Grossman was unlikely to make.

[TwinsCD]

Why the hell was Belisle allowed to continue to pitch after the single to the wall?  Can Kintzler not get 5 outs?  He had Abreu 0-2 and messed around with him and he's caused this.

 

And Hicks 2.0 is starting to get on my last nerve with a garbage throw like that.  At least he's decent running down balls but after that throw, tough to really say what he's bringing to this team at the moment.

[snepp]

 

That Buxton throw was...pretty bad?

 

That's a positive way to describe it.

[nytwinsfan]

 Just horrendous bullpen management by Molitor. Belisle shouldn't be in to pitch to the heart of the lineup in a 1-0 game.  Why not Duffey or Kintzler? And he certainly should have been pulled once it was first and third with only one out.

At least Swarzak won't be the Winning Pitcher.
