Unreal. Bases left loaded twice. This is what you get.

[jimmer]

Our best pitchers are getting it handed to them this series.

[Puckett34]

c'mon Berrios.  Still got the lead

[spinowner]

A couple innings back Jack Morris said that the Twins should feel pretty good with a 4-run lead and Berrios on the mound. You'd think an experienced baseball guy would know better than to utter a jinx like that.

Jinxes aren't real. Make the plays, or in this case, drive the runners in and make pitches, and jack can say whatever he wants

Jack Morris saying smart things is like finding a unicorn in your backyard with Jennifer Lawrence sitting on it.

[Aggies7]

Berrios ain't foolin em, as they say

[Aggies7]

2 hours in, 4th inning

[Puckett34]

Need one of those 2 out sacrifice fly's

[Circus Boy]

A character-building inning.

[Aggies7]

About 20 minutes ago I was snickering that KC had to go to their 3rd pitcher. Jokes on me

[PDX Twin]

Where's the calibration knob on la maquina? He looks a wee bit out of adjustment today.

[jimmer]

Have to go to our horrible bullpen early AND we have a guy starting his first game going in game two. Then a noon game tomorrow. Ouch.

[Aggies7]

I'm sure someone will have a problem with joses little mini celebration there after almost blowing a 4 run lead

Nah, it's okay for pitchers to do it.

I know exactly what you mean, and I concur, but I can't click like.

[Aggies7]

That guy has some absurdly historic muttonchops

[Aggies7]

That's not close to a strike

[nytwinsfan]

 

That's not close to a strike

I'm so sick of this ****. Robot umps NOW!

[Aggies7]

Not close to a strike. When was the last time our batters got in an umpires face? Torii?

[nytwinsfan]

 

I'm so sick of this ****. Robot umps NOW!

Now Dozier K's on a similar bull**** call. 

 

Molitor needs to get his ass out there. This is horse crap. ****ing get yourself thrown out of the game Molitor. This crap can't continue in a close game like this.

[spinowner]

Jack speaking ignorantly about the Fox Tracks strike zone.

[jud6312]

Good to see Black Jack knows all about the Fox Tracks ... and everything else. 

 

I never thought I'd miss DickBert as much as I do when they're apart.

[spinowner]

Sanó is perfectly set up for a strikeout.

He needs to talk more about how it was in his day

Your fault if it happens!

[spinowner]

Tried the anti-jinx and it didn't work. Maybe superstition isn't real after all.

[jud6312]

Good point. It's been a while since we heard about how great he/it was in the '80s.

[Aggies7]

11 LOB, 6 in scoring position.

 

We will lose this game and I won't be suprisd

[USAFChief]

I've been steadfastly against an automated strike zone. I've changed my mind.

 

Do it.
