Are you kidding me???!!!

[Aggies7]

Those were two pretty horrific back to back ABs

[Aggies7]

Joe is the slowest person on earth. My goodness

[snepp]

Hell hath frozen over.

 

 

 

Someone check on Chief...

I had just typed "Zach Duke in to throw BP", but he got an out before I could post. It still fits.

[BoofBonser]

8 walks sheesh

[Aggies7]

For the love of god

[BoofBonser]

TAKE HIM OUT NOW YOUR LUCK IS ALL USED UP MOLITOR

[Aggies7]

No one particularly interested in winning this one

[gil4]

 

TAKE HIM OUT NOW YOUR LUCK IS ALL USED UP MOLITOR

He was able to smack the bottom of the luck jar and get one more glob out. 

 

[Aggies7]

We’re clearly going to need a homer to win this game.

[BoofBonser]

Angels at-bats > Twins at-bats by far tonight
Very lucky to have strung 3 hits together earlier

Seriously. Some terrible ABs

[Aggies7]

That’s...not a good start

[BoofBonser]

If Hildenberger gets out of this it's pure luck

Put the leadoff runner on for Trout, Upton, and Poopholes

[BoofBonser]

Let me think here... what would suck the most?

Walk-off wild pitch? Walk-off balk? Walk-off pitcher missing 1st base while covering? Walk-off walk? 

[Aggies7]

Intentionally loading the bases. Passed ball? Wild pitch?

[gil4]

I would much rather have pitched to Pujols.

HBP

PB

[Aggies7]

Haha I was sure hildy would sail that throw

[Danchat]

Wow, we're just holding on somehow. If only the bats could find a way back into this game...

[BoofBonser]

Same amount of runs, same amount of hits, Twins have left 4 on

Angels have left 15 on

It worked, but it doesn't mean I have to like the strategy.

[Blake]

Absolutely hated that move by Molitor. 

 

I don't care that it worked.

 

I do care because I think Molitor is asking far too much of Hildenburger.

I believe that’s called house money

[Mill1634]

Just getting home from graduations.

 

How have we looked tonight? Looks like the offense has been pretty horrid.

[Blake]

 

It worked, but it doesn't mean I have to like the strategy.

You and me both.

 

Anyway, to me it seemed like Molitor screwed up when he walked Pujols and the only way to get to a weaker batter was to load the bases.

 

One hit batter and the game is over.

[BoofBonser]

That might be what we needed 

[Mill1634]

Oh god. I see Hughes is warming up. Magill unavailable? Or Taylor Rogers?
