Game Thread: Twins @ Red Sox, 6:10 PM, 7/27/18

[twins_89]

Lynn is a pretty good pitcher when he throws strikes 70% of the time.

[tvagle]

 

Buxton homered in his first plate appearance tonight... also has a walk and just stole a base

Maybe he finally sees the light...sparked by Sano getting the call before he does

[tvagle]

 

Garver is two for two on throws tonight.

And that looked more like Garver Boxing the Ball again rather than a WP

[Blake]

Yep, the runner at second, Lynn on the mound, I just knew Lynn was going to get the job done.

 

.............and I have a special on used bridges, too.

What's up with his soul 'stache all askew? Is it windy?

[Puckett34]

 

It seemed like he's been getting a little less tense each appearance, but I can definitely agree that he was a little wooden to start things. The insight he provides is a lot more interesting to me than anything Torii has to say though, and he doesn't stutter 400 times and go off on 10 minute tangents all the time like Smalley.

Agreed in that he (Morneau) gets better with every broadcast.    He seems to be at his best when he's apart of a three-man booth.

[Blake]

 

Garver is two for two on throws tonight.

And he's been doing better behind the plate lately. Ah well, as long as he bring the lumber, all will be forgiven.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

Reverie or wreck-o-mended?

Yes.

 

Well actually most peoe call it Revere. Was just emphasizing i was there through creative spelling, and it served to tie it in with a previous post.

 

I was on my way to the Registry of Motor Vehicles at the time so it disn't bode well...

What's up with his soul 'stache all askew? Is it windy?

He was...sailing.

That's what happens when you shave while riding like the wind.

[USAFChief]

How many ears does Spock have?

[Aggies7]

How do you ever trade Sale, honestly.

[LaBombo]

Five network censors just leaned forward in their seats as Torii Hunter began his improv explanation of the Downward Dog...

[Aggies7]

Asking Lynn to continue to be as good as he’s been is unsettling

[USAFChief]

 

Five network censors just leaned forward in their seats as Torii Hunter began his improv explanation of the Downward Dog...

And 100,000 Twins fans just asked themselves "Dick Bremer ref'd Downward Dog??"

They're used to it, dealing with Bert.

For all those mourning the 2-month vacation Escobar is on...and in keeping with this Kris Kross Game thread

 

[Aggies7]

Welp

Word

 

[LaBombo]

So that 'Lynn throws a shutout' plan has been overcome by events.

 

And astrophysics.

[Shaitan]

GameDay is broken, right? I assume Lynn's given up at least 4 walks by now.

[Shaitan]

oh, here we go

[S.]

Absolutely need to hold them to 2 this inning. Lets get a double play here.

Takes a lot of courage to call something by Christopher Cross "Greatest Hits."

[Don Walcott]

I can’t believe that was a home run. It was too high.

 

It almost got caught between the moon and New York City.

[Aggies7]

I didn’t like the Lynn-Sale matchup on paper.

 

Or plastic

[USAFChief]

Let's not get strike zone shy now, Lance.

[Aggies7]

Get someone loose quickly

[Shaitan]

 

Get someone loose quickly

The pace Lynn pitches at, I'm not too concerned.

Nice!
