byron's son's name is brixton? lol

[Aggies7]

2 pitches, 2 outs. that's what we need right now

[twinsbaby]

2 pitches, 2 outs. That's very disappointed offense so far. 

[yarnivek1972]

Get some runs and then a different pitcher. Duffey I suppose. Closest thing to a long man the Twins have right now.

[Aggies7]

sano takes a 3-1 hittable pitch with 2 outs and nobody on and swings and misses on the next pitch

[twinsbaby]

Taking 5 pitches, then swinging a pitch in the dirt. Good job by Sano if we want to lose game.

Has anyone seen the movie Million Dollar Arm? And if so did you like it?

[yarnivek1972]

I would guess Sano was all but ordered to take two strikes.

Add the first inning at bat from Polanco and Cruz, that would be 5 pitches and 4 outs.

CROM!!!!!!!!!

leadoff walk to the 8 hitter

That's his problem. He's been too walk-happy and when he has to swing to stay alive, he always picks the worst pitch to hit. That one was as slow as you can imagine and in the dirt.

[yarnivek1972]

I’ve seen several posts saying Baldelli seems to pull pitchers sooner rather than waiting until too late. No way does he start this inning for me.

That hitter sent his pitch out of the park earlier though.

ARRAEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mets are getting WAY too many good swings. Perez needs to come out.

[twinsbaby]

Garver needs to catch this foul ball to help Perez.

[sampleSizeOfOne]

cmon mr negative, it was at least for 3 minutes

That's silly. I didn't think for 3 whole minutes...

[Aggies7]

[nicksaviking]

Tuned in at the exact right time!

[jz7233]

Vargas does serve a lot of meatballs. It's really up to Twins hitters to consume.

watching the game on gamecast, it looks like Perez is pitching pretty well and 70 pitches for 16 outs isn't bad.

[yarnivek1972]

Perez has immediately coughed up every lead he’s had. Not sure why he continues to be given the ball.

Saving bullpen for Oakland series?

[yarnivek1972]

Nice 0-2 pitch. Right down the pipe.

[John Kelsey]

That was an awful 0-2 pitch.
