Game Thread: Twins vs. Indians 4-18 @ 7:10 PM CT

Twins get a crack at the back end of the Indians' bullpen. Oh, Goody.

The REO Speedwagon "picture in the elevator" story would be a lot cooler if the lady had actually known--at the time the picture was being taken--who it was she was taking a picture with.

There was a time crunch. Had to take it on the run.

Fun fact...Bauer was selected prior to Lindor in the 2011 MLB draft.

Pinch me, I'm dreaming... what kind of nightmare is this?!?

 

Seriously though we need to have an intervention for Molly and get Santana off this roster and employ a real bench.

Yeah with two runners on, a home run in that spot (unlikely, but still) puts the Twins within two, with the heart of the order coming up in the 9th.

A 500 record...

 

It's like a glass half full.

Or like a runner not fast, not slow, but half fast.

Like a clock that needing to be wound, i am a little rundown sorting through these comparisons.

 

I guess that is why i didn't do so good on the verbal SAT...

 

Anyway, thanks all for da company!

 

Any dance icons apropriate to this sort of result?

Don't worry, Danny will never play, they said...... Sigh

Howdy gang-- thanks for making my long subway ride enjoyable- I caught up on all the goings-on in a much more fun way than actually watching the game.  S'trooth, I had it on at home, for a brief flicker, and had to leave as soon as Tonk tonked the guy with an 0-2 pitch.  Heh....

 

I have to like the thought of folks observing the aging gweilo on the HK subway, suppressing a chortle, a few guffaws, and at least one milk-out-nose moment while perusing the old smart-phone.  

 

And yes, like a few others, I am also having 2016 flashbacks the last few daze...

2004 is the last season in which the twins hit more HRs than they allowed. 2004.

 

What's worse is that they've only done it one other time (91) since 1990. Two times in almost 30 years. Getting real tired of this junk. Also tired of about 3/5s of our rotation.

This is the most Twins stat I've ever heard. Incredible.

It's a tough park to hit a home run in. The ball really sails out.

What'd he do?

 

I think it got by me... and scored.

Say "half fast", well, fast.

Looks like a rainout tonight.  Still halfast.
