German through 1 with 10 pitches/6 strikes, Gibson 26/13

 

Which is indicative of the Twins' not working the count this year. All year.

Fun fact: certain species of slugs and snails are rather aggressive predators.

Alas, this time the pitcher escaped...

 

Oh well.

Oh well.

My understanding of predation, from watching Sir David Attenborough, is that a majority of hunts do, in fact, end in failure.

Does Gibson ever look like he’s having fun? This game is fun Go**ammit

Not counting the work...

Not working the count...

 

Can we do nothing right?

 

Game ain't done yet.

Man, Sano-zee had one to hit on that first pitch. Gotta take advantage of those.

 

Edit: and watches a hanger for a K.

Sano - nice a.b. = 

[Bandit34]

I would be interested to find out who has struck out the most times in their career in MLB history and what the odds are of Sano being able to break that record in his career.

math?

 

That sounds hard...

[Mill1634]

ARRAEZ!!!!!!

 

 

So. Good. 

[Aggies7]

Just go ahead and put arraez in the HOF

[USAFChief]

Arraez should run for mayor.

[MVP Nick Punto]

He didn't read the rules.

[mrtwinsfan]

All Arraez, kids a good player

[MVP Nick Punto]

Are we allowed to score on plays which are not solo HR?

[sampleSizeOfOne]

"In play, run(s)"

 

I like where this is going...

[USAFChief]

Could use a double here.

[Bandit34]

Way to perform Arraez! This guy's good!

[tvagle]

 

Arraez should run for mayor.

Mayor of HITsville

[tvagle]

Ehire is due to run into one...

[sampleSizeOfOne]

He didn't read the rules.

Unwritten rules can be hard to read...

 

I just have this vision of a gif of Chevy Chase Chastising my mathness

[TFRazor]

Arraez hit tool is more like a hit toolbox

[amjgt]

The home plate ump is calling a good game so far

[S.]

"he's built like a...gymnast."

Someone get Smalley the hell out of the booth and get Morneau back please.

This is a darn good AB by Adrianza

[Aggies7]

What an AB. Adrianza making a case for more playing time

[tvagle]

Bases Loaded Safety Squeeze??

[Mill1634]

Fantastic AB from Ehire. He has gone from "DFA" to "Oh, Ehire is up. This will be a professional AB" in just a few months. 

[MVP Nick Punto]

Wakka Wakka

[Aggies7]

The Yankees need two people to go out and talk to German. I guess Sanchez can’t translate either? Wtf
