a couple runs here wouldn't suck

 

[glunn]

I'm just tuning in. Looks like a pretty boring game so far.

What would you have done differently? 

Not much. Molitor appears to be making pretty logical moves these days. Comes down to starting pitchers not finishing enough innings. Eventually you are going to deplete the pen, as is happening right now. Can Belisle hold them off for one more inning? Drama!

[glunn]

Sano needs to be more selective.

[USAFChief]

in play, out(s) please.

[Aggies7]

Well I for one cannot believe sano struck out on a breaking ball low and away. I'm stunned!

[snepp]

Bah, bases loaded unduction again.

[drock2190]

Momentum is totally on Detriots side now. A 1-2-3 inning would have been better for the Twins.

 

Would be surprised if they don't score any runs in the bottom of the 9th.

[Suicide Skweez]

That AB right there shows that while Sano has a lot of raw ability and potential, he has a long ways to go maturity wise when it comes to his hitting tendencies. Still has a really hard time making consistent contact and picking out smart pitches to swing at. 

[GardyParty]

Does anyone know which batter leads the league in strikeouts?

[USAFChief]

Belisle throwing 86-87

[GardyParty]

A real deal save situation here for Belisle. So far not good

[USAFChief]

Who's left in the pen?

[drock2190]

2 run shot. That's game boys.

[Aggies7]

Mahtook is apparently the greatest hitter to ever live

[Brock Beauchamp]

Well, Belisle is certainly in the fire right now.

[S.]

 

Who's left in the pen?

Gimenez.

They keep throwing it because he keeps flailing at it.

At least it was a bloop.

[S.]

Loser, loser. But I still have leftover chicken for dinner.

[GardyParty]

And that will alter the season boys and girls

 

 

[Brock Beauchamp]

****.

[USAFChief]

Yeah...when Belisle came out in the 8th throwing 86, you can't send him back out for the 9th.

 

 

[glunn]

Ouch.

[Squirrel]

I can't watch. Tell me what happens.

[SwainZag]

$$#$#$$#3%$#$!@$

[Aggies7]

That is absolutely back breaking loss.
