Well it was a good game until we had to go to the bullpen. Game over.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Hope the Twins can force this guys at third if he bunts

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Watch for 0-2 bunt attempt here

 

 

Edit: curveballers are harder to bunt in play

Strikeout is better

Revere, another twins castoff

[Puckett34]

A wild Ben Revere appears

[Danchat]

Oh, here comes Ben Revere as a pinch-hitter, who's according to Baseball Reference the worst batter in all of baseball (by oWAR).

[Aggies7]

Polanco not covering

[Danchat]

Jinx: Successful!

 

Wait, I didn't want them to get a hit... crap.

[Aggies7]

Phew. How bout one of them there runs

[John Kelsey]

It wasn't easy but the bullpen got through an inning.

The fans

[Puckett34]

 

It wasn't easy but the bullpen got through an inning. 

And didn't give up a run!

[Aggies7]

Dozier at least had a good night in the field

[Aggies7]

Grossman just hacking away

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Grossman cue ball trick shot base hit. Something brewing!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

This would be a good time for a walk, actually.

[Aggies7]

Angels broadcast keeps saying grossman has good speed. Is this true

[ashbury]

Ben Revere vs Matt Belisle

 

 

Who doesn't win?

This conundrum has baffled philosophers of every century, so here is a gif of a donkey in a swing.

 

[Aggies7]

Swing for it miguel

[Puckett34]

 

Swing for it miguel

Need to be more specific it appears

[TwinsCD]

Probably wouldn't have meant much but I gotta wonder if scouts got Grossman the info that Revere has one of the worst arms in high school baseball.  Chances of little Benny throwing him out at 2nd on that fly to left were pretty minimal.

[ashbury]

Grossman cursing fate for not taking second on Revere's arm, but with two out and Sano coming up I endorse the caution.

That age-old question of resistible force vs moveable object...

 

 

...would you look at that, mighty fine ass you have there.

[TwinsCD]

Taylor Rogers...the gift that keeps on giving...for the other team.

[snepp]

 

And didn't give up a run!

 

I blame you for that.

[Aggies7]

Unreal.

[snepp]

 

Unreal.

 

Oh it's very, very real.

[Aggies7]

And we won't see first place again it seems.
