Sano's making the person who called his bat a black hole look a bit silly...

[ashbury]

yep... but to be fair it seemed like no one knew where it was.

Perhaps, but I know one place where Rosario should be. On his way down to first.

[operation mindcrime]

Wooooooooo! \m/

[Dave The Dastardly]

 

Too late to call Tampa and see if they want their first baseman back?

No Lo, no Mo?

[yarnivek1972]

Rumbling, bumbling...

[Aggies7]

Hahaha this is like beer league baserunning

[Huddy]

Wow. He just got a real life hit.

[operation mindcrime]

Way to go LoMo!

[Aggies7]

Thank god for LoMo because he was approaching nishioka and park territory

[Nine of twelve]

35F + 22mph wind = 23F wind chill

[operation mindcrime]

Way to go Sano!

[ashbury]

Sano with the wheels! Or.... not. Anyway it worked out.

[Nine of twelve]

Kangaroo court fine, at minimum, for Rosario.

 

Sano gets a brownie point though.

Two for scoring running through a stop sign

[Aggies7]

Do our baserunners not understand to pick up the 3B coach? That’s some sorry stuff from a veteran

[Mike Sixel]

What did he do this time? That's three little league mistakes this year....

[Nine of twelve]

Hmmm... Grand Casino bring back the Sweet Daddy Boom commercial from 2 or 3 years ago.

I think its more of a Sano thing

[twinssporto]

When Sano slid into home I felt the small earthquake in Minnetonka.  Serious.

 

The windows rattled.  

[Aggies7]

Escobar did it earlier I believe

[ashbury]

Two for scoring running through a stop sign

He caused the stop sign with his lollygagging, he erased it and somehow made it work.

[GCTF]

Sano now regretting all that runnin'.

[Aggies7]

We are certainly a streaky hitting club huh

[Danchat]

Neverauskas is going to go up there with the other great reliever last names like "Balfour" and "Bummer".

Sano > 3B coach >You > Jeff Gray

[yarnivek1972]

For a RFer, Polanco has a pretty weak arm. That’s two straight throws that didn’t even get to the infield.

[Linus]

Is it too much to ask that guys run hard until the play is over?

[Doubles]

 

Sano's making the person who called his bat a black hole look a bit silly...

That'd be me, & I'm glad to be wrong about that today.  But that opinion wasn't formed over 4+ games worth of ABs, and a coupla great ABs today ain't gonna change it.  

 

Also underscores the impact between raking and striking out.

You still listening to the pirates broadcast? Are these guys awful or what?

[yarnivek1972]

Bierbrodt.

 

And don’t forget to ask Keith Olbermann about Ben Blow Doll.

[Aggies7]

Cripes even buxton gets a hit
