OK

 

Immediate Scenerio

 

Double Steal

 

Do you throw to 2nd? 

[Aggies7]

I like seeing Buxton take bases. I wouldn't mind him take 3rd either.

 

You got greedy, Martin

[Blake]

 

I wonder what would happen if he'd allow others to do such things?

I think Molitor knows he needs another starter and cannot burn up the bullpen at the drop of a hat. It's a long season. So, the decision may have sort of been forced on him.

[wsnydes]

OK

 

Immediate Scenerio

 

Double Steal

 

Do you throw to 2nd?

Who am I in this scenario? That dictates my answer.

[jimbo92107]

This is fun because Buxton turns an at-bat into a cat and mouse game, distracting the pitcher.

[Aggies7]

Yes!

[Aggies7]

Gibby got that W hanging out there

[Riverbrian]

 

Who am I in this scenario? That dictates my answer.

 

You are the guy in the Twins hat in the stands behind home plate. 

[snepp]

Mauer extra rispy.

Could be true, but with the way that he burns through arms on a nightly basis I'm not sure that's the case.

[snepp]

And now more rispiness.

[70charger]

I'd say something about Mauer, but ....

[jimbo92107]

You have to wonder if Buxton affected the pitcher's concentration just enough for Joe to take advantage...

[Aggies7]

This is absolutely beautiful. I have no children but I imagine the birth of a child is a similar feeling

[Riverbrian]

Seriously

 

All of you who left out of disgust

 

You can come back out of joy now

[Blake]

This is not last years team at all. This is very cool.

[70charger]

Sano watched a strike. This has been an update that no one needed.

[wsnydes]

You are the guy in the Twins hat in the stands behind home plate.

Then I keep the ball or give it to a small child. The guy on last night's telecast showed me the importance of a baseball.

It depends on who you are in that scenario... That will dictate your answer.

Ok WE GET IT

 

[D. Hocking]

 

This is absolutely beautiful. I have no children but I imagine the birth of a child is a similar feeling

 

How the mother actually feels in the moments and hours prior to the actual birth is similar to 90% of last season.

[Blake]

Make contact with the ball, make the defense make the plays. Classic.

[snepp]

ESCOBEAR!

[Aggies7]

Why is this guy still pitching?

[drock2190]

Twins are hitting like Gibson is pitching the rest of the night!

[Oldgoat_MN]

 

OK

 

Immediate Scenerio

 

Double Steal

 

Do you throw to 2nd? 

As a catcher (long ago) I would. Take the 'sure' out.

[Aggies7]

GIBBY OUT FOR THE SIXTH DO IT PAUL

[snepp]

May as well bring Gibby back out now.

 

 

 

On a short leash.

[Carneal&Gordon]

Stick! Get more for Gibby!!

[Aggies7]

As a catcher (long ago) I would. Take the 'sure' out.

So you'd get up to bat?
