Wow. Joe Mauer delivers. The legend reappears for a cameo!

[mickeymental]

mister may.

[Darius]

Honest question....is that Joe's first career walk off HR?

[Blake]

Wasn't even a flower pot scraper.

[Mill1634]

Kintzler just wanted the win. 

[Darius]

Mauer listed as day-to-day, groin impingement, after being body slammed by Sano

[Guest]

I felt it!!!!!!

 

Sounds like you're going to be feeling a lot more in the morning.

[Darius]

That's the most excited I've ever seen Joe. Good for that guy.

[gocgo]

The beauty of this is that it was against the Red Sox and will be all over the sports highlights.

[DiscGolfer]

Joe, stealing the thunder from Sano

[USAFChief]

confidence building win, turned into demoralizing loss-in-the-making, turned into glorious win!

[DaveW]

Mega Hunk Joe Mauer!!!!!!!!

[Jerr]

 

What weird universe am I in? Mauer? Really?

This year's Twins universe    ?  Oh, YEAH!!!!!!

[Mill1634]

I love that the ump ducked down to make sure Joe touched home as if the Red Sox were going to walk back onto the field and tag him.

Didn't he walk off HR in his first game back from injury in his MVP season?

[Pius Jefferson]

I was going to come on here and mention how much I love how Mauer pops up after sliding in safe at a base. This is is better.

Nope. This was his first one.

 

Solid timing!

[BoofBonser]

What happened!?!?!?!?!

[DiscGolfer]

So, May 5th Mauer ties Bumgardner for HR total.  who won the pool?

[TwinsCD]

Nice of Barnes to elevate that pitch to give Joe the launching pad he needed to get it out with that wind swirling around.  Makes up for another crappy outing by Kintzler.  And with Tepesch going tomorrow, they needed to get this win to ensure they have a chance at a 2-out-of-3 come Sunday.
