With his 79th, he’s still trailing Alvis at 111. The bigger challenge may be to stay ahead of Muncy’s 62. He recently passed West at 77 and Carey at 70.

And then there’s Bishop (41), Flack (35), Venable (18), Marshall (15), Ramirez (4), Macon (3), Rosenfield (2), Scherzer (1), Stassi (1), Moroff (1), Surkont (1), Butcher (1), and Fiske, Lanier, Fried, Povse, Wilson, Leon and St. Pierre, all at 0.S

Do you mean Muncy's 162? In any case you are awesome.

[bighat]

That 3rd strike swing by Buxton tells me that I hope he doesn't face Bauer again tonight.

[PDX Twin]

If Kepler ever gets invited to the home-run derby, I wonder if he would ask Bauer to pitch???

[David HK]

Yikes.

 

Is it just me, or has Bux looked like the absolutely lost at the plate since he came back from the IL?

[IndianaTwin]

Schlackker.

[snotboogie]

 

Yikes.

 

Is it just me, or has Bux looked like the absolutely lost at the plate since he came back from the IL?

Yeah, that was bad. But on his last AB he held up on a pitch low and away.

Who to what to Who. Who wouldn't change his name because of a double play.

 

I was told there would be no grammar math.

Grammer math is the only math I'm good at.

Muncy just has 62.

 

Baseball-reference.com lets a person search by birthplace.

 

As for Europe, he’s third. Didi Gregorius was born in The Netherlands and has 92. The all-time leader is Bobby Thomson with 264, one of which was was heard around the world.

 

And here’s my favorite trivia about this clip. The famous audio of Russ Hodges is from the Giants’ radio broadcast. Doing TV that day? Ernie Harwell.

I just saw the StatCast feature on Cave's home run. Interesting note showing in how many MLB parks that would have been a home run. Neat feature.

is that on the Gameday deal??

[mrtwinsfan]

Jake looking good- Hey Gibby u watching= Attack and Pace, it does wonders for ya!!

[IndianaTwin]

From the Cleveland broadcast, Michael Cuddyer is the last player to hit five homers against an opposing pitcher in a season, getting John Danks five times. No Cleveland pitcher had ever given up five in a season to a single player.

Does schoop have i blindfold on ??

[FLTwinsGuy]

Schoop is tough to watch

[mrtwinsfan]

Rocco - how about Schoop gets his at bats from leftys, and give arrias the majority of a.b.,s.  I dont see Schoop changing much, He is what he is !!

[twins1095]

This is probably just bias and not true, but for all the rest days most of the guys get Schoop seems to play more than most.  Sano forsure sits a lot more frequently.  Not really sure why.

[mrtwinsfan]

Jack is on tonight !

[mrtwinsfan]

Nice pitch Jake

[wabene]

Guess we know the outcome of fingertipgate

[snotboogie]

 

Jack is on tonight !

Jake too. I'm assuming you're not talking about Morris on the teevee. 

 

[mrtwinsfan]

Any one else feel like we need more runs??   Hope not

[mrtwinsfan]

 

Jake too. I'm assuming you're not talking about Morris on the teevee. 

My bad - meant Odorizzzi

[David HK]

Whaddya think, Bauer comes out for the next inning?

 

Man, he has laboured, but he's kept his team in the game.

[mrtwinsfan]

 9 hitter  - not good jake

[IndianaTwin]

Whaddya think, Bauer comes out for the next inning?

 

Man, he has laboured, but he's kept his team in the game.

Nope. Has 117 pitches and would be facing Kepler again. But, yes, it turned into a Quality Start, which is an impressive showing for how it began.

[ashbury]

Slick DP. Who-to-What-to-Who, right? Or is it to-Whom?

[IndianaTwin]

9 hitter  - not good jake

Second time in two nights that Allen has been hit on the shin. And both times he bent down into it.

[snotboogie]

 

My bad - meant Odorizzzi

I'm assuming it was autocorrect. 

[twinsbaby]

Jake was always 5 innings starter. 

[FLTwinsGuy]

Welp jake wants to make it interesting..i got a bad feeling
