Game Thread: Twins v. Blue Jays, 9/17/17 @ 1:10 PM CT

Max smoaked that one.

 

I see what you did...

[notoriousgod71]

Games like this are difficult to watch.

[PDX Twin]

If he was just a good enough pitcher to rack up the innings and get people watching, Gibson could be a Gold Glove winner. He's really a good athlete.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

 

Lets give him the benefit of the doubt

[GCTF]

Walk Him

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Curve balls

 

What a concept

[snepp]

Who is that man on the mound???

[PDX Twin]

Going for the third homerun with the bat instead of the ball?

[snepp]

Attaboy Joe.

[howeda7]

Polanco should have bunted. 

[howeda7]

Max needs to snap out of it. 

[yarnivek1972]

Get him out of there NOW. That's two BULLETS in a row.

Yeah, but Boshers and Duffey in the pen?

[snepp]

Need moar runs.

[stringer bell]

Ahem, I believe 5 innings is the requirement for a starter to get a win. I can already see that summary with #44 (I can't write his name) as the "winning pitcher".

An outcome much to be desired, no?

[PDX Twin]

I like this Rowley guy. Can we get him to pitch batting practice more often?

[glunn]

Nice hit by Mauer!

[Blake]

What in the world just happened?

 

Mauer? Really?

[dbminn]

JOE!!! That pitch was a half foot inside.

[GCTF]

He can't do that. Or so I've read.

[Blake]

 

Need moar runs.

Ask and ye shall receive?

[70charger]

But why can't Mauer drive balls to the pull side?

[wavedog]

The Grand Salami - whooo Mauer!  This offense sees Gibson is pitching and they dial up double-digit runs.

[DaveW]

MAUUUUEEERRRRR

[snepp]

MOAR EDDIE!!!!!!!!!!

[PDX Twin]

At the rate we're going, we can even afford for Donaldson to bat again, maybe even with a man on base.

[GCTF]

Twins bullpen >>>>>>>>>>>jays bullpen. Yikes.

[notoriousgod71]

Twins continue to average 37 runs per game for Gibson.... and we won't score in NY and definitely not Cleveland.

[Danchat]

Never did I think the Jays would blow a 5-0 lead by the 2nd and give up a Mauer grand slam.

 

Too bad the Vikings didn't pull a few rabbits out of their hat as well.
