Game Thread Astros @ Twins 5/1/19 7:10 PM CDT

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Never understood using one of the better relievers in this role

If you are arguing this is a spot for Vasquez or De Jong...

[Nine of twelve]

Lost the shutout by 2".

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Damn — would have been a nice feather to shut out Houston twice in three nights.

[bighat]

C'mon Hildy don't pull a deJong here. Great game from Perez.

[Aggies7]

18 pitches for TH and he’ll be unavailable for tomorrow. Games still not over

TWINS WIN!!!

 

Very impressive work from Martin Perez, Jonathan Schoop, and Nelson Cruz. 

 

Lets win tomorrow

[FlauerPauer]

Phew. Good win, Twins!

[wavedog]

Good thing we got a couple of runs last inning.

[bighat]

Cruz’s speed creates a run

Both Cruz and Cron are faster than I expected to be honest. Nothing to sneeze at, really.

[Blake]

 

[Aggies7]

Excellent

[mrtwinsfan]

Have u seen Crons Vertical, = ??

[Blake]

Listened to the Houston feed, wanted to strangle the announcers. Kept going on and on about Gerrit Cole and his fabulous start.

 

Yeah, whatever, watch Perez take apart your lineup and shut up about Cole.

[MMMordabito]

Weiner, Weiner, quadruple dollar-dog (probably containing chicken) dinner!!

[Blake]

Oh, and Baldelli? Let's not have Hildenburger pitch against Houston again this year, okay?

[Blake]

Hopefully, we get a "Houston completely dominated" headline tomorrow.

[Halsey Hall]

Perez could be the pickup of the year.

[ashbury]

This was a great comeback victory, battling back from an overwhelming 0-0 deficit early in the game. Judging by the camera shots of the stands, some fans left early and missed it.

[h2oface]

I hate when defense becomes indifferent, always. If nothing else, it is good practice to see if you can throw him out! What's the point of playing to not play? I mean, what else have they got to do on the field. Just watch?

Aye. They left right early, eh?

[PseudoSABR]

Glad they have an option year!

[Channing1964]

Just learned that George Springer has been disciplined for calling our favorite umpire Angel Hernandez a "f*ing c*cksucker," which MLB is calling an anti-gay slur. Man, I just think it's an f*cking insult!

Man thats dumb. Why they gotta try to make it into a gay thing. He prolly said worse. I knew there was a reason i liked that Springer dude....I remember in Minneapolis City Conference one time..i called the ump a blind m@th€rFu€k€® and they didnt even kick me outta the game

Until the playoffs...
