Get a run off de Grom, Gibby gives it right up.

 

Gibby reeking of Mike Pelfrey right now.

If it was Pelfrey it would still be the top of the 1st.

Gibson's working just as slow as ole' Pelf. I guess the slowness of his outing makes it more painful when he's struggling?

Gibby reeking of Mike Pelfrey right now.

nah I have to disagree. But he should go straight after deGrom here.

Actually, I change my mind, you are correct

 

But he can go out in the third with a fresh start. Hope he does.

For many years Dick has referred to fly balls to the outfield as pop-ups. No, No, No. Pop-ups are very high fly balls to the infield. Only. If it's to the outfield it's not a pop-up.

Polanco is just en fuego.

[MMMordabito]

Nice PA by Polanco!

 

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Polanco, double and homer short of another cycle!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Garver blocks that

[MMMordabito]

deGrom pays for not throwing a strike to Astudillo!

deGrom is reeking of Pelfrey right now, he just gave the lead back up!

[Nine of twelve]

Love seeing the boys go right after deGrom after the Mets tied it last inning.

[MMMordabito]

Eddie's gameday box is entirely blue ... Is that a problem?

[PseudoSABR]

 

Polanco is just en fuego.

He's certainly a better player than I ever thought he'd be.  I hope this holds up.

[Nine of twelve]

There goes the quality start streak!!! Amazing!!!

[bighat]

Oh EDDIE! Yeah!

[hybridbear]

Rosie!!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Oh no, deGrom loses his “quality start” streak!!!!!

[MMMordabito]

That didn't age well.

NO

Per radio guys again, A-Stud has highest career batting average ever among players with at least 38 games and 107 at bats. Take that, Ty Cobb.

[bighat]

If this doesn't light a fire under Gibby, nothing will.

[MMMordabito]

 

Oh no, deGrom loses his “quality start” streak!!!!!

 

I'm sure Bob Gibson was counting back in the day. 

[Danchat]

GARVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Nine of twelve]

What the **** is going on here???

[bighat]

Oh heck yes, Garver now!

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

And now Garver’s Gameday box is entirely blue!!

[LaBombo]

 

What the **** is going on here???

 

Grum has been saving up home runs to hand out. Now he's throwing them out to the Twins like candy at a parade.

 

Edit:  Also, the Twins are better at hitting the baseball than they were last year.

[ashbury]

It's early, but with three HR we are having fun. Hope you are enjoying the game too.

Any chance deGrom is tipping his pitches?
