Uh, oops, um, that includes spring training and the postseason, yeah, that's it!

[Blake]

 

Go get em' Berrios!

good to see you, sir!

[snepp]

DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZIER-ZIE!!!!

[Mill1634]

DOZIER x 2!!!!!!!

[Nine of twelve]

Dozier Dozier.

[Brock Beauchamp]

I’m really concerned about this offense.

 

Though they ARE facing the Orioles staff...

[Vanimal46]

Double Dozier!!

[diehardtwinsfan]

DOZIER

[jimbo92107]

Dozier with another bunt single... Savvy hitting for the little guy.

4 solo shots, that would be frustrating if this was a close game.

[ashbury]

DOZIER-ZIE^2 !!!

 

Yeah, yeah, there was supposed to be no math.

[ashbury]

4 solo shots, that would be frustrating if this was a close game.

4 solo shots are part of the reason it's not a close game. Efficient means of run-scoring, I call it.

[Nine of twelve]

Dick: Aruoho. This is a man who has made a living speaking publicly for the last 30 years or more. And he can't say Are.Uh.Oo.Ho. Pathetic.

Gausman KOed after 4.
Berrios winning this battle so far.

 

I remember arguments that the Twins should take Gausman instead of Buxton. A cringeworthy thought now.

[Squirrel]

Berrios is a monster today so far!

Bark! Quick, do some photoshop madness and put Brian’s face onto some Peeps!

[Vanimal46]

We wouldn't know how good the Orioles staff is from the FSN scouting report....

 

But (!) Did you know Gausman changed his number to 34 this year?!

[ashbury]

I likewise am tapped out on Likes. Guess I'm going to chew tobacco from here on out.

[jimbo92107]

"Ar-hoo-oh-ho?" Really, Dick? Takes about five minutes to explain pronunciation in Spanish. You'd think a professional announcer would spend some time working on something that simple. 

 

Or just have a pronunciation chart made for you, before you embarrass yourself during a game. 

 

Ho-zay Bear-EE-ose!

[Squirrel]

I found this dog recently, and immediately thought perhaps it belongs to you:

No. Now if that were Molson, yes.

I’m a big fan of pitchers changing their numbers to match their ERA+.

Uh oh. Chief mentioned this morning during Moderator warmups^* that he was here today to kick ass and hand out likes. Now he's all out of likes.

 

^{* _{Moderator warmups? That's not a thing, is it? April Fool! Or... is it?}}

 

 

Maybe we could get stickers. When's snack?

[Blake]

Yeah, it was pretty obvious from the sound off the bat that ball hit by Dozier was gone.

[ashbury]

I remember arguments that the Twins should take Gausman instead of Buxton. A cringeworthy thought now.

If they had, Gausman would be the one pitching a shutout today and Buxton would be the hitless bum still at AA.

[Blake]

 

i watched one curve ball by Berrios and I swear, it started inside and broke over the outside corner of the plate.

 

I would ask how that can be hit, but, I think that question sort of answers itself.

[Squirrel]

Oh ffs ... Brock, do something to up Chief’s likeability.

 

Oh, wait ...

[Vanimal46]

Turn up the volume on your mic, Marney...

[ashbury]

You need two adjectives to suffice: that "sweet, sweet" curveball.
