For active players, Mauer ranks 3rd in BA w/RISP.

 

4th now

 

[Aggies7]

I’m swingin first pitch if I’m sano

[jimmer]

Darn it!  At least he wasn't watching them.

[USAFChief]

Atta kid mauer-zee. Mr RBI.

[ashbury]

Joe striking out on that crummy looking pitch tells me that Verlander really has some deception going on.

[Aggies7]

Guy has been painting corners all night

[Nine of twelve]

What is this strike zone?

[Mill1634]

This ump should be DFA'd after this game

[Squirrel]

Well ****

[Aggies7]

1st ans 3rd no outs and not one ball in play.

[jimmer]

 

4th now

 

Maybe...or maybe now just tied for 3rd ;-)

[Squirrel]

**** **** ****

[Mill1634]

That is absolutely horrible...

[Aggies7]

That’s pretty horrendous, I have to say. Verlander or not. 2-3-4 big time fails

[amjgt]

Pathetic

[jimmer]

 

1st ans 3rd no outs and not one ball in play.

Its why Verlander is one of few true aces out there.

[Riverbrian]

Sometimes you gotta tip the cap to the other guy. 

[USAFChief]

I wish Falvine is d found a way to trade for Verlander last year.

[Aggies7]

Sometimes you gotta tip the cap to the other guy.

 

And sometimes you have to put a ball in play

[Aggies7]

I wish Falvine is d found a way to trade for Verlander last year.

Hey I’m supposed to be the drunk one

[Blake]

 

**** **** ****

May I quote you on that?

[LaBombo]

With the 3rd K tonight, Sano's percent of AB's that have ended with a strikeout or walk has got to be over 60.

2.5 hours into the game. Is our closer warming up yet?

 

 

[slash129]

Verlander getting preferential treatment followed by Eddie looking like a first grader spinning around throwing a temper tantrum after his 1st pitch pop-up. Give me LaMarre in LF.

[BoofBonser]

Joe swung through fastball that was ball 4 way inside, Sano doesn't know how to make contact every other night, and Rosie unsurprisingly popped up a fastball right down the middle first pitch

 

But he did dominate tonight...

Dick: “Sano will swing over the right side of the infield”

 

And miss

Yeah, but it's Verlander, of the Tigers..once a Tiger, always a Tiger!

[Riverbrian]

 

May I quote you on that?

 

She was just putting a dividing line between two sections and she forgot to add the sections. 

[Primetime82]

That was BS calls on Sanu. Wish he would have got in the umpires face and got ejected

Yeah I would have bet the house that eager beaver Eddie was going to swing out of his shoes on the first pitch in the Minneapolis area code
