Game Thread: Twins @ Tampa 6:10 CDT 9/5/17

It wasn't anywhere close to being strike 3 but when a guy is dealing like Odorizzi is, blue will give him that pitch every time.

[Aggies7]

18 batters faced in 6 innings.

If Odorizzo throws a no-hitter and no one sees it, does it count?

I'm seeing it, and it very much counts

[PDX Twin]

It seems like every time the Twins come to Tampa, the local players Rays their game.

[drock2190]

My phone just got the notification about the no hitter!!

[Aggies7]

WELP.

[Aggies7]

That was an all around horrible job by kepler

[drock2190]

Kepler killed some turf worms with that throw

[wsnydes]

Diehard should say hi to us game threaders tonight. I'm genuinely curious to see if we can hear him on the TV or radio broadcast.

[Aggies7]

This might be joe's last chance to break up a no hitter at this rate

[Aggies7]

Phew. Joe is the no-no kryptonite

[Squirrel]

Ha! What a way to break up the no hitter.

[GCTF]

No hitter killer strikes again.

[TwinsCD]

I just can't understand how major league hitters can continue to stand up there and look at perfect pitches across the plate for strike 3.

[GCTF]

 

Ha! What a way to break up the no hitter.

I literally tuned in for the first time tonight as the ball hit the bag.

I'm half debating trying to chat up the twins pen.

Chief??? Are you logging in on a different account again?

[Don Walcott]

Is this the guy who sells sea shells by the seashore?

[Aggies7]

Tampa seems to have our number this year.

[drock2190]

That could be game right there. 

 

Any momentum swings back to Tampa. 

[diehardtwinsfan]

Twins pen. Rays cheerleaders keep getting in the way

[Pardon My Dinger]

Not too many things more depressing than the empty Barnes and Noble cafe behind the Rays' bullpen.

Fans must have thought it was a Borders.

[notoriousgod71]

What is wrong with these two managers?

 

Starters sailing along with a low pitch count and let's bring in mediocre left handers just for the sake of making a move.

[Aggies7]

Man, these have been some ugly bleeping efforts these last 3 games.

[ashbury]

Fans must have thought it was a Borders.

Dis-likes the negative reference:

Just a guess that there were more fans in attendance for the Astros games played in Tropicana Stadium last week. I think they said 6500 tickets sold and 3000-4000 actually at the game.

[Aggies7]

I see that this is officially the smallest crowd ever at the trop. This gdt is not far off

[Ultima Ratio]

Looks like the boys all came down with a case of the yips.
