Game Thread: Twins @ Milwaukee Brewers @ 7:10 pm CT

[jkcarew]

Yes. 

 

But, we should most definitely keep Wilson on the roster, and keep calling up catchers from Roch to play them in other postitions.

There remains very little evidence that the Twins brought up Astudillo to catch. We’ll see when Adrianza gets back. Until then it’s a moot point as Astudillo is serving as the only reserve infielder.

[Blake]

2 of the runs given up were due to bad fielding.

 

Dozier should have done a better job of fielding and Astudillo had an error.

 

Can't afford to give a team like the Brewers extra outs.

[twinssporto]

Everyone relax.  LoMo is coming out.  Got the game in the bag now!

 

His .191 avg is really going to give us a jolt.

Kyles night is done.

[Blake]

Anyway, watching Milwaukee play, they are playing very intense baseball.

 

I don't see that same fire with the Twins.

 

Oh, and Dozier needs to sit for a while.

[LaBombo]

 

Does Gibby have a "shine" ball?

 

You with the gub'mint, mister? You best walk out the way you come in.

 

[David HK]

Oh, cripe.

 

Morrison PH.

 

Means Belisle comes on for the 6th.

We play with fire Of the dumpster variety

Wilson hits it on the SCREWS! Can't believe the Brewers player sacrificed his body to get that...

[alskntwnsfn]

Why are they pinch hitting for Gibby? He’s our best hitter!

Taylor Williams

 

Tyler Motter

 

Do guys with these names have to have a creepy retro mullet?

 

Taylor Rogers doesn't, so maybe it's not actually Required...

[Vanimal46]

Right into the shift. No adjustment needed for Morrison!

[Danchat]

We have a one run lead and 4 full innings of the bullpen to come... and you guys know how good the Twins are at winning one run games.

[jun]

I don't understand why they don't let Escobar pinch hit for Wilson who is the worst hitter on the team.

I don't understand why they pinch hit for Gibson who is the best hitter on the team with a perfect average with the second worst hitter on the team.

Can anyone tell me why?

I say we lose it in the 8th

Hardest hit ball we've seen from Wilson in days.... Maybe weeks!

Just keep hitting them where they are.

[David HK]

Good job by LaTroy, reading the graphic that's right in front of everybody's eyes.

 

And getting some numbers wrong.

[Vanimal46]

You don't earn a .190 BA by hitting them where they ain't.

Molitor does not trust Gibson and he has more faith in 'all-mouth no production' Morrison.

The brewers telecast also has a pizza ranch commercial which must mean pizza ranch is a regional chain. And we know how bad regional chain pizzerias are

 

Pizza Ranch is known for its chicken, not for its pizza. 

 

Pizza Ranch is a midwest thing and they usually popped up in little towns until recently. You go to any small Iowa town and there is always a Pizza Ranch!

Why the heck isn’t it called chicken ranch?

I enjoyed that very much. Good fun to see/hear a guy like LaTroy look awkward, which probably happens very rarely.

I'll see your 8th and raise you a 7th.

[tvagle]

Molly with the quick hook...3 pitchers to make it through the 6th...and Belisle does his job, showing the bullpen how to warmup in the bullpen

[David HK]

This is the ARE we had at the beginning of the year. The ARE I liked- a lot.

 

That cold-eyed stare of a killer, like Henry Fonda or Woody Strode in Once Upon a Time in the West.

 

Except for that pitcher getting a hit. He must be the Charles Bronson character.

That franchise is already taken by some Nevada outfit.

Immaculate leadership.

[jun]

I don't think Reed wants to see Duke finish his inning after that Cubs game. So they chose Rogers. And that's a good decision.
