BUCK!!!!!!!!!!

[MNT1996]

BYRON BOMB

[IndianaTwin]

Not that it will happen in this at-bat, but who will hit the Twins' first grand slam in 2019?

Uh, I’ll go with BUXTON!!!!!!

[PseudoSABR]

LaTroy was all about settling for a triple; for shame.

[glunn]

This game is going very well for the good guys.

[MNT1996]

Twins are absolutely smoking every single hit. My god

[Nine of twelve]

Keep it going, boys. We can get crookeder than 5.

[glunn]

Nice hit by Gonzalez from the 3 spot.

[Squirrel]

Well **** ... I missed Buxton's GS???? Well ****. Damn you, work and Rachmaninov Symphony No. 2!

[Aggies7]

Why is everything so easy anymore

[bighat]

 

as if people should walk around all day knowing that Cron is sitting on 99

 

They were talking about a bunch in the broadcast booth on Friday night, Dick went off on a tangent for a bit on Cron and mentioned how the next one will be 100 a few times. Not that you or anyone else should have known that, but Dick's call did make sense to those who saw yesterday's broadcast.

You can't just leave in the 4th like Bears fans?

[MNT1996]

Lets stay away from that pitch Jose

Eric Carmen knew about Rach 2.

He also knew about the other Rach 2.

Cheech & Chong style!!!

[bighat]

Berrios gets killed by the shift more than any Twins pitcher I've seen. Maybe his stuff is so good that guys like Encarnacion and Pujols are so far ahead/behind that they hit the ball where they typically don't?

[jtkoupal]

I'm not going to pass too much judgement on Miguel Sanó until he gets about 100 PA. Once he hits that, no more excuses.

[Aggies7]

That Griffey bobble head is criminal

[glunn]

Cron now at 101

[operation mindcrime]

CROM!!!!!!!!!!!

[bighat]

 

Well **** ... I missed Buxton's GS???? Well ****. Damn you, work and Rachmaninov Symphony No. 2!

 

You saw CJ Cron's 2nd HR though just now. Welcome to the party!

[MNT1996]

Ok protect our hitting coach at all costs. Give him a 25 year contract.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

CROM!!!!

Everyone knows she should leave during the 1st movement in order to be back in time for the end of the 4th.

[LaBombo]

The Twins' offense is more fun now that it's more offensive, but also now that it doesn't take 15 minutes for the defense to get off the field every time the other team bats.

[operation mindcrime]

Way to go Sano!!!!!

Sort of ... it's in the background ... working on something that requires my eyes ... but I heard it then saw the replay.

[glunn]

Sano!

[stringer bell]

#1 for Sanó.

[bighat]

Oh heck yes Sano just freaking HOMERED.
