Wait...

 

The game isn't over? I thought we had established a KC protocol...

 

Somehow i like this way better!

[Darius]

Rosario looks really frustrated right now. Awful body language.

[Darius]

....and then he gets a hit.

[USAFChief]

I thought Mauer was going to get forced at third on that hit to left.

[Aggies7]

Imposter Byron needs to go away

[Darius]

Have I been hearing crickets on this entire telecast, or is it outside my window? Or am I having a stroke?

 

Got one in my house somehow the other night. It chirped all night and was just enough to distract me from sleeping. Couldn't find it as it would get quiet whenever I entered the room it was in.

 

Most aggravating thing I've ever went through. Was nearly running around the house like the dude from the Shining. I considered torching my house.

Bad calls that affect the game.... still don't like it. Buxton struck out.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Imposter Byron needs to go away

No, look like he's here to stay for a while. Time to tinker with the leg kick again, unfortunately.

[adorduan]

2 run lead doesn't feel like much with Belisle pitching...

[USAFChief]

If what's-his-name blows this save I shall be verrry put out.

[Darius]

I hate that we have Matt Belisle saving games.

[h2oface]

Wish we had a closer.... all season..... wish we had a closer.

Seconds? Yes please

[dbminn]

Well played game. Gibson, Mauer(!), Grossman and Polanco all stepped up. Herrera's 98 is nothing compared to Belisle... Ha!

[adorduan]

I wonder how often a team strikes out no opposing batters and wins the game........

[TwinsCD]

Gotta love stealing one there.  That derp by Escobar and Gordon was the difference in the game.  If they come up with that one, I don't think the Twins even tie the game.  Big-time character builder there and they win the game in hand that they had on the Angels.

 

Got stuck with the Royals announcers for the 9th inning and they were yapping about the trades the Twins made at the deadline and that it would be unfortunate if the Twins "came up short because of one starter or not having a closer".  I hate to break it to those wizards but no one is moping about not having a guy who has been very average for the Yankees and a guy who was just as accident-prone as the guy that is closing now.

[Old Twins Cap]

Last week, Twins given chances, didn't come through.

 

This week, well, tonight, got a chance, and made them pay.

 

A few more like this, and we get that wild card, wild game, wild chance at Yankee revenge in the Apple.

 

Don't forget, Twins still got one series left in New York before that.  Now coming into focus.

 

It'll be big.  I hope.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

. . . and a guy who was just as accident-prone as the guy that is closing now.

Kintzler? He has been effective for the Nats.

[TwinsCD]

 

Kintzler? He has been effective for the Nats.

 

I haven't paid any attention to what he's done since he left.  I just know that when he was in Minnesota, I covered my eyes when he came into the game because he made every 9th inning interesting.
