Game Thread: Twins v Rays, 5/28 @ 1:10pm CT

[Twinsbar107]

I can't deal with the strikeouts, especially looking, in those situations. Put it in play, let them make the play

It's almost as the league as a whole, is okay with that. 3 true outcomes.

[mikecgrimes]

In Molitors defense Robbie Grossman might have dropped that again not sure why they would still be playing but oh well

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

The twins are 17-95 (.178) with RISP in their last 9 home games. They are somehow 4-5 in that stretch

Because... all it takes is one

I am pretty sure MLB rules would demand someone with exposed bleeding be taken out of the game. That's the case in every sport now. Post Magic Johnson era.

 

You gotta fight through it!!!

They have sucked at home. We need to throw everything we have into this team. No pissing and moaning. Cheer them on, hope for the best. Maybe something good or great can happen. I say this while it is conceivable they lose this game. Sell your soul for the Twins!

In my defense, I was cheering hard for Miguel and he still struck out

[Jerr]

Got to stay positive, Twins have NOT lost a game with a lead in the 8th inning this year

This game is wearing me out. I cannot imagine how the players feel.

[Puckett34]

Take a drink every time Morris mentions the length of the game.

[Jerr]

Longest game by minutes at Target Field and worth every minute!

[Willihammer]

Umps wanna go home

[yarnivek1972]

13th inning strike zone

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

1-2... Whatever that strikeout pitch in your pocket is, you need to throw it now!

[yarnivek1972]

C'mon. That was a strike!!

[Whammy]

Take a drink every time Morris mentions the length of the game.

Uh oh

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Take a drink every time Morris mentions the length of the game.

I started that around noon. Is Morris finally caught up with me?

[Jerr]

LET'S END THIS ONE, TOP OF THE ORDER TWINS... oops I'm shouting

Yes!

 

Participation trophies for the posters above who pointed out how big the strike zone was getting!

[glunn]

Now that the shadow is gone the Twins need to finish this.

[Riverbrian]

Atta Boy Haley.

 

NOW!!! Dozier, Polanco, Mauer, Go win this game for the kid!!!

 

This inning... Right now.. Don't wait... Don't make him go out there and throw another inning. 

[mikecgrimes]

600 mile NASCAR race that should have started well over an hour  after Twins game ended is nearly third over.

[Blake]

Has the Ump expanded the strike zone for both sides? If not, I don't appreciate it. I don't care if the ump is calling it 6" outside as long as the zone is consistent for both teams.

[Jerr]

 

Yes!

I'm pre-participation trophy guy, so no thanks!!!!!!!

back when second place was a set of steak knives

[mikecgrimes]

Dick was pretty excited for a ball that ended up 30 feet from the warning track

Appears to be equally generous.

Dick has been losing depth perception as the years go by. No doubt it is getting worse. 

 

I love the guy.. he's one of us but I am laughing about it
