The 3 run homerun is in play here...

Whoa.  Take it easy with those hot takes

[Darius]

So you would have started Berrios?

Feel free to look back. I've been saying it for a month.

[Riverbrian]

At least he missed the same strike on Kepler. 

[LaBombo]

 

Is that a Spam Slider?

 

That particular one is a little number called the Crispy Jalapeno slider, and it comes with a free five dollar gift card good toward the copay for your urgent care visit .

The zone has been fine The pitch to Gregorious is NEVER going to be called. Santana missed his location by a foot

Especially when the catcher almost falls over receiving it

[Smarterthanyou]

Put n Bartolo!!!!

[Aggies7]

Yowee that was close

[Puckett34]

Maybe we gotta get one of those waves going

Are you suggesting a bases loaded squeeze? Or grand slam?

[bighat]

Couple of great ABs by Kepler tonight. GEEEZ Bux up with the bases loaded against a new fresh reliever...hmmm. If only it were Dozier...

[Dave The Dastardly]

 

Or maybe he sat for half an hour between the time he warmed up and the time he pitched and couldn’t get a feel.

I have that problem every now and then.

[alarp33]

 

Listen, I understand you're bitter. Maybe head to bed.

He got burned on one pitch, that's the bottom line. Who the **** cares what else happened in the inning.

 

Literally the rest of the game? I mean if he pitches a good clean inning he can give the Twins another inning or two? Honestly what are you watching

[AlwaysinModeration]

Buxton, first pitch swinging here?

[kusko_andy]

Time to grow up Buck.   You.  Can.  Do.  This.

Kepler and some others have been been impressive at the plate tonight.

[bighat]

Can we stop talking about Santana's start and watch the rest of the game, please?

And without the best defensive CF in baseball he would've been burned twice as badly. Fact of the matter is Santana was terrible in the first and still bad in the second inning.

[GCTF]

I may crack open a beer after the upcoming grand slam

[Riverbrian]

 

Are you suggesting a bases loaded squeeze? Or grand slam?

 

 Nothing Greedy... I just put the ball in play. 

[wsnydes]

Are you suggesting a bases loaded squeeze? Or grand slam?

Yes please.

[snepp]

How 'bout a Buck bomb?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

The zone has been fine The pitch to Gregorious is NEVER going to be called. Santana missed his location by a foot

It was a strike.

 

Why should the batter get the benefit of doubt for not swinging at a strike?

[Aggies7]

Boy that was byrons pitch right there

[FlauerPauer]

SQUEEZE!!!

[yarnivek1972]

Triple time. Might be difficult in the Bandbox ® though.
