Is wade gonna get sent down without making a box score?

He's due to pitch the 16th.

[MVP Nick Punto]

Taaaaake me out to the same balllll...game.

Taaaake me out with what's left of the croowwwwwddd.

Buuuy me some peanuts and crack, and Jack

I think I might never get back.

Oh it's root, root root for a Sanooooo dong,

But no, another Kay-ay, so lame.

For it's one, two, three strikes he's out

at the oldddd balllll game!

Ooh, we have a few candidates for tonight's winning post.

[MVP Nick Punto]

Niiiice play

You're a real song writer.  Bernie Taupin doesn't hold a candle to you!

[Jham]

Say what you want about the talent of this pen, but they are able to get every ounce out through shear effort.

[jimbo92107]

Beautiful pitching by Magill. Garver needed an inning without diving. 

[Blake]

So, far, the much maligned Twins bullpen has kept the Rays and the Sox in check over extra innings.

 

Interesting.

[Craig Arko]

On the bright side, Arráez is becoming an accomplished outfielder.

Snappy dresser, too!

[nicksaviking]

Arraez looked a little hesitant and didn’t take a great route to that one. I liked that he made the catch and even more that he had the guts to try it. I think he’ll be OK out there with a few more reps.

[snotboogie]

Chief, isn't this Sano's 3rd AB since you called it?

[70charger]

Hard to believe Sano's had three chances to walk it off, and the score has been unchanged for like 14 innings.

[Jham]

Next time Sano walks back to the dugout carrying his bat, I hope he finds his bags packed at the top of the dugout steps with an envelope containing a plane ticket to Rochester.

[FLTwinsGuy]

This is painful for both sides

Interesting.

Yeah, they just need to go extra innings every game and they’ll look awesome.

[USAFChief]

Is that all?  Seems like way more.

[jimbo92107]

No truth to the rumor that Sano has been taking hitting lessons from Drew Butera...

[USAFChief]

In all seriousness, how is Sano not hacking on 3-0, in the bottom of the 15th?

 

Seriously.

 

That's...stupid, if you ask me.

[nicksaviking]

Kepler’s not supposed to K in a clutch spot is he?

[nicksaviking]

No truth to the rumor that Sano has been taking hitting lessons from Drew Butera...

Hopefully pitching lessons then.

[USAFChief]

 

Kepler’s not supposed to K in a clutch spot is he?

0 for 7.

 

The HBP has RUINED him!

[MVP Nick Punto]

Are we allowed to have someone try to steal first? Like, set up in the box, then with time in just bolt for first? I think that might be our best option right now.

[Blake]

 

No truth to the rumor that Sano has been taking hitting lessons from Drew Butera...

Yeah, Butera at least puts the ball in play...

[Whammy]
